Senior Digital Engineering (DE) Integration & Oversight Engineer

Seeking a highly skilled Senior Digital Engineering (DE) Integration & Oversight Engineer to provide Systems Engineering and Technical Assistance (SETA) support to the Department of War (DoW) Test Resource Management Center (TRMC). Operating under the Chief Engineer, this non-supervisory position provides senior technical advisory support, independent assessment, and technical coordination for performer-developed Digital Engineering Ecosystem (DEE) capabilities that support the modernized test and evaluation (T&E) enterprise.

The successful candidate will assess DEE architecture, data and toolchain approaches, technical integration risks, and implementation maturity; coordinate with TRMC technical resources to support alignment with existing infrastructure and future roadmapping; and provide decision-quality findings to Government leadership. The role works closely with the prime performer, cybersecurity personnel, an M&S SME, test stakeholders, and data and infrastructure teams.

• Providing independent technical assessment of the prime performer’s DEE architecture, implementation, integration, verification, and sustainment approach, including Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) and Product Lifecyle Management (PLM) tools, data environments, digital twins, Modeling and Simulation (M&S), AI/ML-enabled analytics, High-Performance Computing (HPC), APIs, workflow automation, and DevSecOps or collaboration platforms
• Assessing approaches for digital-thread implementation, authoritative data and model sources, configuration management, data provenance, and traceability across requirements, design, test, analysis, and lifecycle artifacts
• Evaluating proposed DEE software, tools, interfaces, data architectures, and integration approaches to determine whether they support Government requirements, T&E user workflows, interoperability objectives, and long-term sustainment
• Evaluating performer approaches for automated metadata tagging, data lineage, provenance, and policy-aware data handling from data ingest through storage, analytics, M&S, reporting, and authorized dissemination across distributed Government and contractor facilities
• Identifying and communicating technical, interoperability, data-management, cybersecurity, scheduling, and programmatic risks, including toolchain fragmentation, vendor lock-in, scalability constraints, metadata integrity, and interface dependencies
• Coordinating with TRMC technical resources, cybersecurity, data-governance, and infrastructure stakeholders to assess proposed DEE solutions; identifying alignment and reusing opportunities, interface requirements, data-protection considerations, technical gaps, and future roadmap needs
• Supporting Government participation in performer-led technical and milestone reviews, assessing key technical deliverables and verification approaches, and providing findings and recommendations to the Chief Engineer and Government Program Manager
• Preparing and presenting technical assessments, risk assessments, trade studies, roadmap inputs, and executive decision briefings to the Chief Engineer and Government Program Manager and other senior stakeholders
• Communicating complex digital engineering, architectural, and data integration concepts clearly and effectively across both technical engineering teams and non-technical executive stakeholders
• Supporting preparation of technical inputs for Statements of Work, Independent Government Cost Estimates, and facility-requirements documentation
• Collaborating across a multidisciplinary team of engineering, test, cybersecurity, infrastructure, and program-management stakeholders
