Job Description Join the Capability Integration Strategy (CIS) team, the portfolio organization that turns strategy into delivered capability. CIS integrates technical roadmaps, delivery planning, capability incentives, anomaly resolution, release management, and decision intelligence through one operating model using authoritative data and explicit decision rights.

As a Level 3 Senior Systems Engineer, you will serve as an experienced individual contributor while owning and leading one assigned CIS function. You are accountable for its work products, operating rhythm, stakeholder coordination, and technical decisions. You will resolve issues within the function, represent evidence, status, and risk to program and CIS leadership, direct function work within portfolio standards, and escalate decisions with broader portfolio impact.

Key responsibilities:

• Own and maintain the integrated technical baseline within the assigned function, including scope, schedule, capability content, and accomplishment criteria.
• Manage cross-program dependencies, owners, need dates, and verified status; lead integration and verification planning backward from culminating events.
• Govern the common deficiency taxonomy; lead impact assessment, prioritization, and resolution tracking across technical domains.
• Develop and validate release-readiness evidence, including verification status, deficiency disposition, limitations, and watch items; present the technical basis to release authorities.
• Validate and reconcile authoritative portfolio data; produce traceable health assessments, leading indicators, and dashboards integrating capability, cost, schedule, risk, and readiness.
• Lead analysis for technical interchange, roadmap, anomaly, release-readiness, and program management reviews; recommend actions using common data.

What You Will Be Doing Each position focuses on one of four technical tracks based on expertise and team needs. Depth in one track is required; experience across multiple tracks is valued.

Track A — Capability Architecture & Integration Planning (TRM, FIP, CIM)
Translate mission capabilities into executable architectures through functional decomposition, technical roadmaps, interface definition, dependency mapping, and integration planning. Apply MBSE methods such as DoDAF, UAF, or SysML to connect operational needs, requirements, system functions, design decisions, and verification evidence.

Track B — Technical Integrity & Release Readiness (ARM, CRM)
Turn technical requirements into verified, integrated, and releasable capability. Apply requirements analysis, interface management, verification/validation planning, integration sequencing, technical performance assessment, and anomaly resolution. Establish objective evidence and readiness criteria for sound and repeatable release decisions.

Track C — Data Engineering & Architecture (IDM)
Build and operate data pipelines and common data models across heterogeneous sources. Apply SQL and a general-purpose language, preferably Python, for ingestion, transformation, validation, reconciliation, and orchestration. Apply data quality, schema, lineage, and access controls to investigate incorrect values at their source.

Track D — Data Analysis & Decision Metrics (IDM)
Turn integrated data into decision intelligence through precise metric definitions, calculation logic, health assessments, leading indicators, trend…
