Job description

Technology On Time, Inc. (TnT) is hiring a Senior Systems Integrator / Engineer to join a long-running national security program supporting the geospatial intelligence enterprise in Springfield, VA. You will help keep a large, complex systems-of-systems enterprise coherent as it modernizes across cloud, on- premise, and hybrid environments, working shoulder-to-shoulder with government engineers and mission stakeholders.

This is a direct W-2 position with TnT, a minority-owned small business that has supported IC and DoD customers for over a decade. Candidates must hold an active/current TS/SCI clearance and be willing and able to pass an additional polygraph as needed.

What You Will Do

• Perform and assist with leading systems integration activities across the GEOINT enterprise and partner federal agencies to ensure timely and accurate mission delivery.

• Assist with leading and overseeing a total systems perspective, including a technical understanding of the relationships, dependencies, and requirements of cloud, on-premise, and hybrid services, infrastructure, and security domains.

• Assist with overseeing the preparation of engineering plans, interface control documentation, and site installation technical design packages.

• Guide the work of Mid- and Junior-level Systems Integrators and Systems Engineers.

• Work directly with senior government stakeholders to identify, refine, and document new and emerging mission requirements.

• Engage mission and technical stakeholders, applying knowledge of GEOINT systems, CONOPS, and metadata to establish and maintain data standards.

• Identify and help resolve cross-project dependencies so that analytic modernization efforts advance an integrated vision.

• Support the development and evolution of system and service architectures, including integration across program, segment, and project plans, technical roadmaps, and schedules.

• Evaluate new technologies for fit-for-use using quantifiable and traceable criteria to enable future decision making.

• Support Analyses of Alternatives (AoAs) and provide data-driven recommendations, including identification of key decision points and Go/No-Go inputs.

• Conduct user outreach to communicate planned architecture changes, operational concepts, and project status, and collect user inputs to optimize delivery plans.

• Support test planning, integration verification, and documentation of as-is and to-be states for assigned projects.

• Produce weekly activity reports for the government customer and the program.

• Develop and deliver effective technical presentations to technical and non-technical audiences; must possess strong written and verbal communication skills.

• Work with customers to resolve technical and programmatic issues.

What You Need

• Bachelor's degree or higher in Systems Engineering, Computer Science, Information Technology, Engineering, Engineering Management, Management Information Systems, or a related technical or scientific STEM field such as physics, mathematics, or operations research; or related equivalent additional experience (4 years with no degree, 2 years with a non-STEM degree).

• Senior-level systems integration and/or systems engineering experience (typically 12 or more years) in government or industry integrating large, complex System of Systems or Service Oriented Architecture environments residing in cloud, on-premise, or hybrid infrastructures.

• Demonstrated senior-level experience across the systems engineering lifecycle, from requirements definition through integration, test, deployment, and sustainment.

• Experience in relevant work areas such as the DoD/IC acquisition process, requirements process, PPBES process, or engineering of large complex enterprise systems.

• Data engineering and architecture experience developing logical and physical data models to support intelligence mission needs.

• Experience advising both technical and mission stakeholders to advance customer objectives.

• Prior experience writing CONOPS, interface documentation, or similar technical documentation for a non-technical audience.

• Active/current TS/SCI security clearance; willing and able to pass an additional polygraph as needed.

Nice to Have

• Senior-level experience in the field of geospatial intelligence.

• 4+ years of experience in one or more disciplines of GEOINT analytic tradecraft and analysis production system development.

• 2+ years of experience in government acquisition processes.

• 1+ years of experience in agile systems development, including Agile at Scale or SAFe environments.

• Master's degree in Systems Engineering, Computer Science, Information Technology, Engineering, Engineering Management, Management Information Systems, or a related STEM degree program.

• Working knowledge of Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) processes, tools, and languages.

• Previous NGA and/or NSG/ASG program or project work experience, or experience in NGA Analysis or a similar analysis organization.

• Previous IC or DoD program or project work experience.

• Demonstrated experience with the current NSG/ASG and NRO enterprises.

• Demonstrated experience in photogrammetry, remote sensing, image science, information sciences, geographic information systems, geomatics, or related fields.
