  • Define configuration identification schemes and naming conventions for Configuration Items (CIs).
  • Conduct CI audits, reviews, and verification activities to ensure traceability and accuracy.
  • Manage functional, allocated, and product baselines across the system development lifecycle.
  • Coordinate release planning, deployment activities, and support government oversight reviews.
  • Ensure CM processes integrate seamlessly with SAFe/Agile practices in scaled environments.
AWS Cloud Environment
  • Utilize AWS tools and services to document and manage cloud infrastructure.
  • Align documentation and configuration management practices with AWS best practices and compliance requirements.
Qualifications:

Required:
