• Maintain and enhance existing tests to exercise newly deployed and/or updated software features developed by third-party agile programs

Required:

• Active TS/SCI with polygraph (or willingness to obtain a polygraph)
• BA/BS in STEM field or related experience
• 3+ years of systems engineering experience with planning and scheduling software
