An Enterprise Requirements Engineer is needed to help architect and manage projects for a federal government agency by coordinating with stakeholders, project managers, and the development team. This position would have the technical knowledge to communicate the decomposition of requirements into technical implementation across all the projects that this agency is involved in. Many stakeholders give similar or the same requirements on their projects and those items each get implemented separately historically in a silo. The Enterprise Requirements Engineer would be responsible for defining requirements for the Information Technology organization in a way that would reduce multiple similar requests across the enterprise and result in reductions in manual labor and time to build out what would otherwise be each requirement separately. This position would be responsible for working across multiple teams to understand the technical aspects of each project and breaking down the information into enterprise project plans to span multiple projects and assist project managers to track work against.
