Systems Engineer (Prime)
About The Position
Join a team building capabilities that give analysts more than raw data. This work helps them understand context, track what has happened, see what is in progress, and make better decisions with a fuller picture in view. The mission supports content and traffic triage, language analysis, workflow collaboration, transcription and sourcing services, and the capture of workflow states across analysts, teams, and organizations. This is a strong fit for someone who enjoys shaping how systems work, turning user needs into clear requirements, and helping build capabilities people rely on every day.. Why You Want This Role This role puts you close to the customer and close to the mission. You will help define how capabilities should work, how users interact with them, and how contextual workflow information is captured, tracked, and presented. The work is less about hands-on coding and more about bringing clarity to complex needs through requirements, workflows, and technical documentation. At Intelliforce, your work is visible and your input matters. Because we support prime programs, our teams stay close to meaningful mission work with real momentum. Because we are a small business, leadership is accessible, your voice carries, and your work gets noticed. Add in long-term contract stability, strong benefits, a people-first culture, and a hiring process that moves with purpose, and this becomes more than a traditional Systems Engineer role. It is a chance to shape outcomes and influence capabilities with real mission value.
