• Conducting technical analysis, modeling, or trade studies to evaluate system capabilities and performance.
• Supporting system integration, testing, and verification activities.
• Supporting system lifecycle engineering activities, including requirements development, architecture design, integration, and sustainment.
• Developing or analyzing system architectures using engineering frameworks such as DoDAF.
• Collaborating with engineering teams, analysts, and government stakeholders.
• Developing technical reports, analytical documentation, or engineering assessments.

Desired Skills

• Supporting Department of Defense (DoD) or Intelligence Community (IC) programs.
• Performing data analysis using tools such as Python, R, MATLAB, or similar analytical platforms.
• Developing system models, simulations, or performance analysis tools.
• Supporting system architecture modeling using DoDAF or model-based systems engineering (MBSE) approaches.
• Analyzing large datasets or operational performance data to support mission systems.
• Supporting cybersecurity, information assurance, or secure system architectures.
• Supporting engineering trade studies, system performance optimization, or mission analysis.
