## Description

You'll be part of a dynamic team of government civilians and defense contractors supporting the Missile Defense Agency (MDA) Director's vision for digital transformation. This includes implementing new tools and modern architectures to overhaul the Agency's systems engineering processes and products. A primary focus will be developing the Government Reference Architecture-an integrated, cloud-based framework that enables collaborative development, testing, and integration of tactical software. The architecture will support role-based tools and customized views for users at all levels. This effort aims to transition the Agency away from inefficient document-heavy workflows and reliance on email toward a modern digital ecosystem that enables real-time, multi-user collaboration and automates or eliminates traditional documentation requirements.
