CACI is seeking a Senior Network Modernization & Policy Analyst to support the Department of Defense (DoD) Chief Information Officer (CIO). This position independently supports an Action Officer and serves as the primary SME driving enterprise-wide network modernization across the Department of Defense Information Network (DoDIN) including DISN optimization, MILDEP network convergence, edge cloud initiatives, and Mission Partner Environment (MPE) capability development.

The ideal candidate is a technically grounded policy professional who can translate complex network architectures and modernization strategies into executive-level dashboards, whitepapers, architectural artifacts, and actionable CIO guidance. Strong proficiency with Power BI and familiarity with CATMS tasker workflows are essential to success in this role. Responsibilities:
* Provide independent SME-level support to a DoD CIO Action Officer as a hybrid data systems engineer and policy analyst.

* Provide subject matter expertise and technical analysis in the areas of network operations, including hybrid and hyperconverged compute optimization.

* Support the development and coordination of implementation plans to modernize and optimize network capabilities (e.g., DISN, MILDEP network convergence, and edge cloud) in support of DoD priorities to increase security, enhance effectiveness, and gain efficiencies across the DoDIN.

* Optimize mission hosting and applications to enable war fighting through the Mission Partner Environment (MPE).

* Track and define efforts reflective of MPE program and capability baselines; develop issue papers to address enterprise and theater-specific resourcing demands; and develop analysis to support DoD CIO positions on resolving risks, issues, and opportunities.

* Provide subject matter expertise in enterprise strategy, policy, programmatic requirements, capability analysis, and resource analysis applicable to MPE.

* Conduct detailed and comprehensive analysis of MPE systems; identify critical capabilities, capability gaps, and modernization roadmaps to guide the strategic and incremental evolution of all MPEs.

* Research, analyze, and assess all relevant DoD policies that address or impact MPE capabilities and associated domestic and international agreements.

* Provide architectural and technical design support for the development of future-state globally integrated MPE enterprise services.

* Develop whitepapers and architectural artifacts to guide and shape cloud-based information domains in support of Combatant Command and Service-specific mission partner information sharing needs.

* Engineer, maintain, and enhance Power BI dashboards to visualize infrastructure performance metrics, modernization progress, and portfolio-level data.

* Participate in and document stakeholder meetings, working groups, and internal strategy sessions, draft meeting summaries, white papers, and internal memos.

* Prepare and respond to CATMS taskers and executive-level inquiries in alignment with CIO priorities and policy frameworks.

* Leverage Advana, Jira, and Confluence to track deliverables, manage technical documentation, and support portfolio transparency and alignment.

* Analyze infrastructure telemetry and lifecycle data to support strategic recommendations for Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA), hybrid cloud migration, and enterprise modernization.
