Experience with real‑time or event‑driven data processing, streaming, or multi‑source data integration patterns
Experience guiding engineering teams through design decisions, code reviews, and implementation within Agile development environments
Experience evaluating technical tradeoffs and translating mission or stakeholder needs into actionable system requirements and architecture direction

Experience with secure cloud environments, containerized workloads, or infrastructure automation tools such as Kubernetes and Terraform
Experience building or integrating model‑driven or AI‑assisted capabilities into mission systems
Experience mentoring engineering teams or shaping technical direction across multi‑disciplinary groups
Possession of strong analytical and problem‑solving skills, for complex, multi‑source data ecosystems
Master’s degree in CS, Engineering, or a related field
