Analyzes operational needs, technical requirements, system performance, and engineering evidence, and collaborates with integration, digital engineering, and program teams to assess whether proposed solutions meet mission needs and can be developed, integrated, deployed, and sustained effectively. This role often involves evaluating alternatives, assessing integration and lifecycle implications, and planning for future capability needs., Essential duties and responsibilities include the following. Other duties may be assigned. Conducts system-level technical analysis of mission needs, operational concepts, stakeholder concerns, use cases, and operating constraints. Develops and reviews measurable technical requirements, functional allocations, architecture descriptions, and performance measures, and recommends revisions to incomplete, conflicting, ambiguous, or unverifiable requirements. Evaluates alignment among operational needs, requirements, system architecture, interfaces, and verification approaches, and assesses integration and lifecycle implications. Conducts alternatives analyses and engineering trade studies using documented criteria, assumptions, source information, and limitations, addressing performance, feasibility, maintainability, and lifecycle implications. Reviews engineering documents and contractor work products for technical accuracy, completeness, consistency, and conformance to approved requirements. Evaluates Engineering Change Proposals (ECPs) and Requests for Deviation (RFDs) for effects on performance, technical baselines, verification requirements, and lifecycle risk. Reviews test plans, procedures, and results to determine whether verification evidence adequately addresses system requirements, and recommends corrective actions for performance shortfalls. Supports technical assessments, technical reviews, and readiness assessments throughout development, integration, deployment, and sustainment, and recommends mitigation and closure of engineering risks. Facilitates planning for future capability needs by evaluating emerging technologies and engineering approaches against assigned requirements. Establishes and maintains engineering documentation of technical findings, unresolved issues, and recommendations for Government consideration, including technical memoranda, review comments, and decision briefs. Advocates for and implements engineering process improvements in coordination with integration, digital engineering, requirements, acquisition, and operational personnel. Provides inputs to status reports, Integrated Master Schedule (IMS) and risk register updates, and quarterly reviews; prepares deliverables that conform to Section 508 accessibility standards; incorporates Government comments within five (5) business days.
