  • Develop derived requirements for Information Assurance Services (Confidentiality, Integrity, Non-repudiation, Availability) and Basic Information Assurance Mechanisms.

Required Experience/Clearance:

  • Seven (7) years of experience as a Systems Engineer in programs and contracts of similar scope, type, and complexity.
  • Bachelor's degree in Systems Engineering, Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering Science, Engineering Management, or a related discipline from an accredited college or university (or five (5) years of additional SE experience in lieu of a degree).

  • Experience generating alternative system concepts and physical architectures.
