About The Position

The WDP extends to Unclassified, Secret, and Top Secret environments, and supports collaboration between Combatant Commands, Joint Staff directorates, Senior Executive Service leaders, and operational analysts. The Training Content Developer produces, maintains, and continuously improves the role-based training assets that enable WDP users, data engineers, and operational stakeholders to effectively operate platform tools, manage data pipelines, and execute governance workflows across Unclassified, Secret, and Top Secret environments. This role translates complex technical platform behaviors into accessible, task-focused instructional content aligned to WDP release cycles and cross-enclave deployment plans in direct support of warfighter enablement and enterprise adoption objectives.
