• Active TS/SCI security clearance at the time of hire.
• Experience with GEOINT workflows.
• Experience with system-of-systems testing.
• Experience with test automation software such as JMeter, JUnit, TestComplete, or comparable tools.
• Experience analyzing system requirements, concepts of operations, system descriptions, or comparable technical documentation to develop test and evaluation approaches.
• Experience developing, maintaining, and executing test plans, test procedures, test cases, or evaluation criteria.
• Experience collecting, analyzing, interpreting, and documenting test data and technical results.
• Ability to identify functional or performance problems, investigate contributing factors, and recommend practical corrective actions.
• Experience evaluating automated test results and confirming system behavior against expected outcomes.
• Experience supporting test readiness activities, demonstrations, formal test events, or comparable evaluation activities.
• Ability to document test status, results, risks, impediments, and recommendations for technical and program stakeholders.
• Experience coordinating test activities across engineering disciplines or external test organizations.
• Understanding of quality, reliability, verification, validation, and configuration-controlled test practices.
• Ability to independently lead defined test and evaluation efforts within an assigned technical scope.
• Strong technical writing, analytical, and verbal communication skills.
