ABSC is seeking a mission-focused Technical Training & User Support Specialist to support the NGA’s Data Modernization Services program in partnership with Syntasa. This role is ideal for a technically strong professional with hands-on experience in cloud, data, and DevSecOps environments who can bridge technical execution, user enablement, and training delivery.

This role is on-site/flexible hours in: Herndon, VA; Springfield, VA; St. Louis, MO; or Aurora, CO.

• Support high-side validation of training materials to ensure accuracy, usability, and alignment with operational environments.


• Work closely with engineers, developers, DevOps resources, and program leadership to capture technical processes and convert them into repeatable training products.


• Support training delivery, demonstrations, onboarding sessions, and user enablement activities.


• Identify training gaps and recommend improvements to improve user adoption and operational effectiveness.


• Ensure training content remains current as platform capabilities, data workflows, and technical processes evolve.

Technical Project Coordination / PM Support

• Provide light project management support for training, user enablement, and technical documentation activities.


• Track action items, training development status, validation timelines, stakeholder feedback, and delivery milestones.


• Coordinate with program leadership, technical SMEs, DevOps, data engineering, and customer stakeholders to ensure training priorities are aligned with mission needs.


• Support meeting preparation, note capture, status reporting, schedule coordination, and follow-up actions.


• Help organize and prioritize training backlog items, documentation needs, and user support trends.


• Assist with planning for releases, capability rollouts, and related user readiness activities.

• Capture recurring user issues and recommend updates to training materials, FAQs, or support documentation.


• Escalate technical issues to the appropriate DevOps, engineering, or platform support resources.


• Support user onboarding and help ensure users understand available tools, workflows, and support channels.

Desired Qualifications

• Project Management Professional (PMP) certification.


• Prior experience supporting NGA programs, data modernization efforts, or IC cloud/data environments.


• Experience with Data Bricks, Syntasa or similar data analytics/data engineering platforms.


• Familiarity with Spark, data pipelines, ETL/ELT workflows, or data engineering concepts.


• Experience supporting high-side or classified system documentation and validation.


• Familiarity with Jira, Confluence, GitLab/GitHub, Jenkins, or other Agile/DevSecOps collaboration tools.

Ideal Candidate Profile


The ideal candidate is a technically capable, highly organized communicator who can operate at the intersection of engineering, training, user support, and project coordination. This person does not need to be the primary DevOps engineer or Spark developer, but they must be technical enough to understand the platform, ask the right questions, validate training content, and help users become more self-sufficient.


This role is especially important because the program is currently single-threaded in the training function. The selected candidate will help reduce bottlenecks, accelerate the development and validation of training materials, and improve overall user adoption and mission readiness.


Why This Role Matters


The NGA DMS/Syntasa team is delivering mission-critical data modernization capabilities that require strong user adoption, accurate technical documentation, and repeatable training. This position will directly support the program’s ability to scale by ensuring users have the materials, guidance, and support needed to effectively leverage the platform.


By strengthening the training and user enablement function, this role will help reduce dependency on overextended technical SMEs, improve onboarding and knowledge transfer, and support the broader mission through more effective use of modern cloud, data, and analytics capabilities.


Salary range is $120k-$240k and is commensurate with education and years' experience.
