Job Description

Job Description

Apogee is seeking an experienced Senior Operational Readiness & Requirements Lead to support the development of a federal operational-readiness simulation and decision-support solution. This role will lead requirements discovery, operational workflow validation, scenario development, assumption management, and stakeholder coordination to ensure the simulation accurately reflects real-world mission processes and operational environments. The successful candidate will serve as the critical connection between federal operational stakeholders, subject-matter experts, and technical simulation-development teams. The individual will translate complex operational requirements into actionable models by capturing processes, constraints, staffing considerations, decision points, exceptions, and mission scenarios.

Key Responsibilities

Develop process maps, operational workflows, use cases, decision logic, and requirements traceability documentation. Identify operational entities, events, resources, dependencies, constraints, routing logic, exceptions, rework processes, and decision points. Document assumptions, data limitations, policy considerations, risks, and unresolved decisions. Develop and maintain operational scenarios, including:Baseline operating conditionsSurge scenariosDegraded operationsDisruption eventsPolicy and stress-test scenariosCoordinate subject-matter-expert reviews to validate workflows, assumptions, parameters, and simulation outcomes. Establish operational validation criteria and acceptance measures. Support verification and validation (V&V) activities for simulation models and analytical outputs. Analyze simulation results to ensure operational accuracy, relevance, and mission alignment. Support demonstrations, user acceptance activities, scenario rehearsals, and after-action reviews. Maintain requirements documentation, assumptions logs, decision records, validation findings, and corrective-action tracking. Contribute to user guides, training materials, scenario catalogs, and knowledge-transfer documentation.

Experience documenting complex operational workflows, business rules, decision processes, constraints, and exceptions. Experience validating analytical models, simulations, technology solutions, or operational processes. Strong analytical, technical writing, facilitation, and stakeholder engagement skills. Ability to obtain and maintain client-required suitability requirements, including Public Trust eligibility if required.

Preferred Qualifications:

CBAP, PMI-PBA, INCOSE, Lean Six Sigma, Agile, or comparable professional certification. Experience supporting federal readiness, mobilization, workforce operations, emergency management, continuity, or mission-support programs. Experience with discrete-event simulation, operations research, scenario modeling, or analytical model validation. Experience designing tabletop exercises, operational stress tests, demonstrations, or after-action reviews. Familiarity with requirements traceability matrices (RTM), formal verification and validation methodologies, and systems engineering practices. Experience supporting government stakeholders in complex, mission-critical environments.

Security Requirement:

Ability to obtain and maintain client-required suitability clearance or Public Trust determination.

Location Requirement:

Candidates must be able to support periodic onsite workshops and meetings in Virginia.
