• Design and implement software architectures for multidomain interoperability including microservices containerization and cloudnative applications.
• Develop and integrate secure scalable and resilient software systems supporting crossdomain operations (JADC2 C4ISR cyberphysical systems AI/MLdriven decisionmaking etc..
• Lead ModelBased Systems Engineering (MBSE) and DevSecOps practices for continuous integration and deployment (CI/CD).
• Design and implement open APIs middleware and data exchange standards to enable seamless communication across disparate platforms.
• Develop distributed computing architectures utilizing Kubernetes Kafka gRPC DDS and realtime data processing frameworks.
• Ensure software compliance with DoD software standards (e.g. MOSA FACE DDS Open Mission Systems Zero Trust Architecture).
• Utilize AI/ML techniques to enhance automation decision support and predictive analytics in multidomain environments.
• Conduct trade studies software modeling and performance optimization for largescale softwaredefined ecosystems.
• Implement cybersecurity best practices including encryption authentication and access control in softwarecentric systems.
• Collaborate with crossdomain engineering teams to ensure seamless integration of software and hardware components in complex SoS environments.

Qualifications:

• Bachelors Degree with a minimum of 15 years of prior related experience. Graduate Degree with a minimum of 13 years of prior related experience. In lieu of a degree minimum of 19 years of prior related experience.
