## Description

The role sits at the heart of an integrated solutions architecture and systems engineering effort, working on a multi company team to define the operational, physical, functional, and technical architectures that will shape an evolving C2BMC (Command, Control, Battle Management, and Communications) capability. As the product owner for the architecture, you will own the backlog of architecture artifacts, prioritize capability delivery, and ensure that each increment aligns with stakeholder expectations. You will architect missile defense command and control and battle management systems, leveraging existing COTS/GOTS components while guaranteeing full DoD interoperability. A core responsibility is turning high level mission needs into a cohesive hardware software solution, analyzing requirements, articulating desired capabilities to developers, engineers, SMEs, and users, and producing and maintaining system models, interface control documents, and functional flow diagrams. You will also
design and develop new systems, modernize legacy platforms, drive the roadmap for architectural evolution, lead portions of the design effort, and support internal and external design reviews with clear written and oral technical presentations.

Please Note:

-This position requires a government security clearance; you must be a U.S. Citizen for consideration.

-The role will involve approximately 10% travel to customer sites throughout the U.S.
