Configuring and operating virtualized test environments (e.g., VMware) that simulate target operational baselines, including installation of fully compliant IA software. Integrating new software baselines, capability enhancements, and patches on engineering systems while ensuring compatibility with existing hardware, sensors, and C5ISR interfaces. Supporting development, integration, and testing of interfaces enabling data sharing between USMC C5ISR systems, Fires systems, and Naval/Joint C2/Fires systems. Executing Nessus/ACAS scans during integration activities; analyze results, support remediation actions, and verify closure of vulnerabilities in coordination with cybersecurity engineering personnel. Maintaining authorized software baselines by applying security patches, updates, and configuration changes consistent with ATO requirements and RMF artifacts. Developing and maintaining STPs, test procedures, and test reports for each software build and system release, accurately capturing test configurations, standardized results, and defect status for Government review. Producing and updating technical documentation, including software installation guides, build plans, build lists, version descriptions, configuration/user guides, and baseline comparison matrices. Reproducing, thoroughly documenting, and tracking defects found during integration and test events, providing clear steps to reproduce, relevant logs, and environment details. Collaborating closely with software developers, systems engineers, and cybersecurity personnel to analyze root cause, verify corrective actions, and re‑test fixes as part of regression testing. Supporting configuration management activities for integration and test artifacts, ensuring accurate status accounting of software loads, configurations, and test results within CMPro and other program repositories.
