• Validate workflow integrity, permissions, dependencies, and automation reliability; proactively identify issues and implement corrective actions to maintain workflow performance.
• Support onboarding and training for development and engineering teams on workflow tools, pipelines, orchestration platforms, and secure-environment best practices.
• Prepare and deliver workflow assessments, optimization plans, automation recommendations, and process-improvement strategies to program leadership.
• Stay current on emerging workflow-automation platforms, digital-infrastructure practices, and secure development-environment technologies to continuously enhance branch capabilities.

Position Requirements

• Deep technical understanding of workflow automation, CI/DI pipelines, digital-engineering processes, and software-development lifecycle operations.
• Experience supporting secure or classified development environments.
• Ability to work independently on complex technical processes and translate mission requirements into streamlined, compliant workflow solutions.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to support multidisciplinary teams across a digital-infrastructure workcenter.

The successful candidate will serve as the authoritative lead for workflow engineering, ensuring the design, optimization, and secure execution of development, integration, and delivery processes within classified environments. Responsibilities include engineering and maintaining structured workflows, establishing process controls and automation, enforcing compliance with applicable security and classification requirements, and providing direct support to the program office across all workflow orchestration, process optimization, and digital-environment operations.

Qualifications:

• Possess minimum of 10 years of relevant work experience
