## Description

Seeking an IT Specialist to join our growing team in the National Capital Region! The IT Specialist serves as the team's technical advisor for the Information Technology (IT) components of a mixed IT and non-IT acquisition portfolio. This position analyzes systems, applications, infrastructure, interfaces, data, technical dependencies, and lifecycle considerations and translates technical findings into clear portfolio criteria, assessments, roadmaps, and decision-support products. This role supports technical analysis and process development rather than operating CISA systems or providing routine IT support.
Responsibilities:

 * Analyze IT systems, applications, infrastructure, interfaces, data, technical dependencies, lifecycle status, and related acquisition information.
 * Support development of technical criteria and documentation associated with acquisition pathways and program decision points.
 * Help inventory and classify IT acquisition programs, contracts, systems, and investments using information collected from multiple Government repositories and sources.
 * Assess technical health, acquisition readiness, interoperability, cybersecurity, privacy, lifecycle considerations, dependencies, and implementation risks.
 * Support development of portfolio taxonomy and assessment criteria addressing technical health, program health, strategic alignment, business value, and acquisition readiness.
 * Translate technical findings into clear recommendations, process documentation, assessment results, briefings, and other decision-support materials.
 * Support development of the portfolio implementation roadmap and performance-management process by identifying technical dependencies, sequencing considerations, measures, data inputs, risks, and decision points.
 * Coordinate with business, process, requirements, project-management, and writing personnel to ensure technical information is accurate, consistent, traceable, and understandable.
 * Protect Government information and comply with applicable cybersecurity, privacy, records-management, access, and training requirements.
