## Description

We are seeking a seasoned, adaptable Systems Engineer Level 2 specializing in system architecture and privacy compliance to join our elite team in Annapolis Junction, MD. In this role, you will take full technical ownership across the entire systems engineering lifecycle-from extracting CONOPs and building DoDAF architectures to enforcing complex Intelligence Community privacy rules. You won't just draft static requirements documents; you'll serve as the primary bridge between operational end-users, software development teams, and senior Government leadership. You will lead system integration, manage configuration boards, allocate performance budgets, and architect SOA and cloud-native solutions that align strictly with legal and technical privacy compliance standards. If you excel at transforming complex operational needs and privacy mandates into hardened, executable engineering baselines, you'll fit right in with Team Nyla.
