High Side Technology has a need for a senior-level system engineer to support the NGAs Analytic Modeling Services (AMS). The AMS program enables innovative analytic tradecraft by providing NSG/IC analysts and data scientists capabilities to automate manual intelligence tasks and implement analytic algorithms designed to analyze geospatial intelligence data, in combination with data from other intelligence disciplines.

The AMS project objective is to provide an integrated suite of tools and capabilities that allows analysts and scientists to analyze and triage data from multiple intelligence sources and models.

Responsibilities:

• Provide systems engineering expertise to advise the Analysis Modeling Services (AMS) Integrated Program Office (IPA) AMS program; assisting the agencys development and management of data analytics, algorithms and modeling, tradecraft governance and proliferation, and rules and alerting capabilities to augment the analytic workflows of analysts addressing DoD/IC mission priorities.
• Ensure the establishment of complete and accurate system-level functional/performance requirements that are clear, traceable from strategic capabilities to validated customer and operations needs/requirements, and consistent with the programs architecture objectives and acquisition strategy.
• Defines, plans, coordinates, and guides various technical initiatives (e.g. performance analysis, feasibility studies, constraint evaluation, cost/benefit analysis) for execution of system-level functional requirements definition and resolution of interface issues.
• Provides technical coordination, architecture guidance, and support for IPA project development and the IPA budget build by the IPA Budget Management staff with input from other organizations.
• Define the milestones and control gate success criteria and evaluate entry/exit readiness during design reviews and audits to ensure protection of baselines and to assist in risk identification and resolution.
• Plan and coordinate data management practices to treat and handle data as a resource.
