About The Position

This opportunity resides with Global Security (GS). Mission Technologies’ Global Security (GS) group comprises live, virtual, constructive (LVC) solutions; fleet sustainment; nuclear and environmental; and Australia business. As a trusted partner to our military customers, HII designs, develops and operates the largest LVC enterprise that prepares warfighters for cross-domain battle. With advanced technologies to enable mission readiness, HII understands that preparation requires full coordination—not readiness in piece-parts. For more than 40 years, the U.S. Navy has entrusted HII to maintain and modernize the vast majority of its fleet. With a holistic approach to life-cycle maritime defense systems—from small watercraft to submarines, surface combatants and aircraft carriers—HII ensures a high state of readiness. HII supports the Department of Energy’s national security mission through the management and operation of its sites, as well as the safe cleanup of legacy waste across the country. HII meets clients’ toughest nuclear and environmental challenges. Mission Technologies, a division of Huntington Ingalls Industries, is seeking a highly qualified Information Warfare Technical Integrator. This on-site position is located at the Global Live, Virtual, and Constructive (LVC) Operations Center in Dam Neck, VA, supporting the Navy Surface Warfare Center Corona (NSWC Corona) in delivering LVC and Fleet Synthetic Training (FST). In this role, the selected candidate will support Navy LVC training across designated Areas of Responsibility (AORs). Key duties include assisting with the planning, development, and execution of Fleet Training events for Fleet and Strike Group staffs, including reserve personnel. Frequent collaboration with Military, Government, and Contractor leadership is a central part of this position.

Responsibilities

Installs, configures, and patches new C-FAST/IW tool suite baseline software releases, upgrades, and system updates to keep training environments current and secure.
Monitors servers and applications using systems management software, troubleshoots system issues, coordinates with external teams, and develops resource allocation policies and standards to ensure stable system performance.
Collaborate with C-FAST/IW toolset engineers to accomplish event planning and federation architecture development tasking until O&M turnover is completed.
Immediately following O&M turnover of C-FAST/IW toolsets, leads C-FAST/IW-specific planning and technical design of federation architectures, ensuring tools are configured to integrate into Navy Training Baseline (NTB) federations.
Directs real-time system and federation management during LVC events, actively conducting in-stride troubleshooting and rapid correction of system problems to maintain continuity of operations.
Coordinates across the LVC operations team during LVC events to guarantee technical alignment and ensure all systems are configured to create the opportunity for successful training execution.
