Description: ACT1 Federal is seeking an experienced Systems Engineer to provide requirements analysis, architecture, interface, systems integration, verification, advanced-manufacturing, and systems planning in support of industrial base and fifth shipyard decisions.
Systems Engineering and Requirements Analysis:

Apply systems engineering principles to defense industrial base programs, initiatives, and emerging requirements involving production capacity, suppliers, shipyards, infrastructure, workforce, data, technology, and investment.
Elicit, analyze, document, validate, and maintain mission, operational, functional, performance, interface, data, and implementation requirements.
Evaluate whether proposed solutions, analytical methods, data sources, and implementation plans satisfy requirements and support intended mission outcomes.
Industrial Base Integration and Analysis:

Integrate production, supplier, infrastructure, economic, financial, acquisition, workforce, and technology information into coherent baselines and analytical products.
Support assessments of production constraints, supplier capacity, industrial resilience, shipyard alternatives, infrastructure needs, technology adoption, investment priorities, and recovery initiatives.
Conduct alternatives analyses and trade studies addressing technical feasibility, operational utility, cost, schedule, risk, scalability, interoperability, and lifecycle considerations.
Identify gaps, redundancies, conflicting assumptions, data limitations, and cross-directorate impacts that could affect implementation or senior-leader decisions.
Develop performance measures and monitoring approaches that connect recommended actions to observable improvements in capacity, delivery, resilience, and execution.
Management Analysis and Decision Support:

Analyze organizational structures, governance, processes, roles, responsibilities, and decision authorities affecting DASN DIB initiatives.
Facilitate working sessions with Government, program, engineering, acquisition, financial, data, and industry stakeholders to clarify requirements and resolve integration issues.
