Cloud Systems Engineer

The Cloud Systems Engineer (SE) will be responsible for supporting the Systems Engineering and Test (SET) team. Will be performing significant prototyping of cloud capabilities to replace or extend on-premises capabilities; these cloud activities are being migrated to operational capabilities. Systems engineering support is necessary to ensure requirements alignment and to generate documentation, such as interface control documents or service descriptions, as appropriate for each capability.

The Cloud SE will work with internal and external Subject Matter Experts (SME) to coordinate the relevant details. This includes following documented Configuration Management (CM) processes to ensure cloud documentation is current and reflective of the deployed system. The Cloud SE will also work with SMEs as necessary to define and document new capabilities from the requirements phase through deployment into operations.

The Cloud SE will also support engineering analysis and oversight on general systems engineering tasks including supporting requirements management, system testing, design and architecture, decision analysis and formal Government reviews. This role may require occasional travel to contractor’s facility in Melbourne, FL, as well as operational sites such at Wallops, VA, and Fairmont, WV.
