Job Description

Position Summary

At MAG, we provide and enable real-time situational awareness to help our customers make the world smaller and safer. We are laser focused on serving our customers by providing technical expertise, operational excellence, and flawless execution. Our success is due entirely to the high caliber of employees we recruit, hire, and retain. At MAG, we look for individuals who thrive in a high-performance environment where challenges are the norm and success is expected.

The Senior Network Engineer provides network architecture, hardening, accreditation support, and enterprise and site network engineering across MAG Aerospace's U.S. European Command (USEUCOM) command and control portfolio: mobile command platforms, fixed and survivable C2 facilities, communications and terminal programs, and program offices and integration and training sites. The mobile C2 platform network is the current anchor, and the same discipline applies to facility, site, and enterprise networks across the portfolio.

On the platform, the engineer owns the routed and switched network, the multi-path wide area network (WAN) failover architecture, classification-boundary separation, and the Risk Management Framework (RMF) and Security Technical Implementation Guide (STIG) benchmark evidence supporting Government accreditation, with hardening applied as voluntary defense-in-depth. Across the portfolio, the engineer designs and operates program office, laboratory, and site networks.

  • Own the platform network's RMF and STIG benchmark posture and the artifacts that support Government accreditation.
  • Integrate and configure platform compute infrastructure, including server and operating-system configuration and joining compute resources to the hardened network.
  • Support bring-up and acceptance test of the integrated network baseline, and validate failover, segregation, and hardening on each build.
