• Expert knowledge of enterprise-scale cloud data migration frameworks (AWS, Azure, or Google GovCloud) and the specific limitations/capabilities of physical data transfer appliances
• Comprehensive understanding of DoD IL4/IL5 requirements, Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA) principles, and the Navy RMF/ATO process as it relates to data handling and storage
• Knowledge of FIAR requirements and how to maintain immutable data trails during a large-scale system transition
• High proficiency with native cloud database migration services (e.g., AWS DMS, Azure Database Migration Service) and robust data replication tools
• Strong scripting capabilities (e.g., Python, Bash, PowerShell) to automate data validation, error handling, and delta synchronization scheduling
• Proven skill in implementing FIPS-compliant encryption mechanisms and managing cryptographic key logistics for large datasets
• Ability to manage complex technical logistics and troubleshoot transfer failures (e.g., packet loss, corrupted batches, appliance hardware faults) under the pressure of a strict <12-month hard deadline
• Ability to translate strict Navy cybersecurity and AO compliance policies into actionable, technical data transfer procedures
• Ability to coordinate data flow dependencies for the core procurement system alongside 10-40 peripheral applications simultaneously
• Work requires the ability to receive and maintain an active IAT Level 2 certification
