In this role, you will help engineer mission workflow and data-management capabilities that support high-priority intelligence operations. You will work across systems engineering, software development, architecture, Agile delivery, and stakeholder engagement to translate mission needs into technical requirements, system designs, workflow designs, interface definitions, test approaches, and implementable backlog items.
This is a technical systems engineering role, not a traditional system administration role. The focus is on requirements analysis, solution design, system and interface engineering, workflow engineering, integration and test planning, technical documentation, risk management, and delivery coordination across Appian workflows, microservices, and enterprise system architectures.
You will serve as a Senior Systems Engineer, Scrum Master, and Product Owner for a focused technical team creating and managing Appian Enterprise Workflows and a Data Catalog system. You will work closely with other Systems Engineers, Software Engineers, Architects, Product Owners, Scrum Masters, and Government stakeholders to deliver reliable, scalable, mission-focused capabilities.
Most work is conducted on-site at the client location in Bethesda, MD. A flexible schedule is available, and some tasks may occasionally be performed remotely. The percentage of remote work will vary based on client requirements and deliverables.
Primary Responsibilities
- Lead systems engineering activities for Appian workflow and enterprise data capabilities, including requirements analysis, feature decomposition, system design, interface analysis, integration planning, test planning, deployment support, sustainment, and system assessment.
- Translate mission and stakeholder needs into clear technical requirements, acceptance criteria, design artifacts, workflows, and implementation-ready Agile backlog items.
- Develop and maintain technical artifacts such as design packages, workflow designs, interface descriptions, system documentation, technical solution papers, white papers, and release-support documentation.
- Coordinate with partner systems, software teams, architects, and Government stakeholders to manage dependencies, clarify requirements, resolve technical issues, and align delivery priorities.
- Support creation, enhancement, and maintenance of Appian Enterprise Workflows and the Enterprise Data Catalog.
- Define and refine processes for technical platforms, system specifications, input/output parameters, software compatibility, integration points, and operational constraints.
- Support Agile sprint and release planning, including creation and refinement of GitLab issues, Jira tickets, Confluence pages, GitLab Wiki documentation, and related collaboration artifacts.
- Facilitate Scrum ceremonies, including sprint planning, backlog refinement, reviews/demos, retrospectives, and daily team coordination.
- Identify risks, dependencies, and impediments; drive mitigation planning; escalate issues when needed; and support continuous process improvement.
- Coordinate development activities across microservices, workflow platforms, data services, and supporting system architectures.
- Apply systems engineering discipline to ensure solutions are technically sound, testable, traceable, well-documented, and aligned to mission outcomes., MATLAB Equities Failover Innovation Resilience Scalability Market Data Group Policy Virtualization Windows Domain Authentications Windows Servers Ancient History Active Directory Software Systems Machine Learning Containerization SolidWorks (CAD) Interoperability Operating Systems Incident Response Disaster Recovery Endpoint Security Windows PowerShell Policy Enforcement Workflow Management Systems Engineering NetApp Applications Microsoft SharePoint Lifecycle Management System Configuration Atlassian Confluence Microsoft SQL Servers Server Infrastructure Artificial Intelligence Technical Documentation Psychiatric Assessments Administrative Functions Authorization (Computing) Public Key Infrastructure McAfee Epolicy Orchestrator Windows Server Update Services Troubleshooting (Problem Solving) Top Secret-Sensitive Compartmented Information (TS/SCI Clearance) +0
