Requirements Development: Work with stakeholders to identify and document user, mission, business, functional, non-functional, regulatory, and Department of the Air Force requirements. Support requirements workshops, backlog refinement, prioritization, traceability, and preparation of software requirements documentation. Software and Solution Design: Develop and maintain technical designs covering application architecture, user interfaces, workflows, system interfaces, data models, and data flows. Produce architecture diagrams, interface documentation, design packages, and configuration-controlled technical artifacts. Data Integration and Engineering: Design, build, and maintain APIs, connectors, Extract, Transform, and Load processes, data pipelines, data structures, and integration services that collect, tag, process, and make mission data available within the enterprise ecosystem. Envision and Palantir Foundry Support: Configure and develop data pipelines, ontologies, dashboards, applications, code repositories, and data integrations within Envision or Palantir Foundry. Apply platform development practices and support required environment configuration. Data Management: Develop and maintain data dictionaries, metadata repositories, data definitions, domain values, integrity rules, and associated technical documentation for learning-services databases and data-warehouse environments. Data Quality: Profile and audit data for accuracy, completeness, consistency, and integrity. Develop validation rules, quality monitoring, exception reporting, and corrective-action products in accordance with government direction. Software Testing: Develop test strategies, test plans, automated test suites, regression tests, and test reports. Support user acceptance testing, deployment validation, defect resolution, and maintenance of test evidence. Deployment and Release Support: Prepare deployment plans, release schedules, implementation procedures, rollback processes, deployment checklists, and configuration-management documentation. Coordinate production implementation activities requiring government approval or execution authority. Agile Delivery Support: Participate in Agile planning and execution, including backlog refinement, sprint planning, reviews, retrospectives, risk tracking, dependency management, and other Agile ceremonies. Senior personnel may support release-train coordination and stakeholder briefings. Enterprise Data Operations: Coordinate with the AETC data team, enterprise architects, mission data partners, mission data stewards, security personnel, developers, and system owners to enable required data flows and resolve issues affecting mission execution. Data Security and Privacy: Apply applicable cybersecurity, access-control, encryption, auditing, privacy, data-sharing, and secure-coding requirements. Document security concerns and proposed mitigation actions for government review. Storage, Backup, and Recovery Support: Support configuration, documentation, monitoring, and validation of backup and recovery processes within the authorized platform environment. Coordinate with government system owners and hosting or cloud providers when actions require government authority. Incident Management: Participate in identifying, documenting, prioritizing, troubleshooting, resolving, and reporting incidents affecting supported applications. Support ticket triage, escalation, root-cause analysis, trend analysis, and incident metrics. Technical Documentation and Reporting: Prepare briefings, reports, operating procedures, user guidance, training materials, incident summaries, and other documentation required by the customer. Contribute technical information to recurring project and status reports. Stakeholder Engagement: Communicate technical options, dependencies, risks, limitations, and recommendations clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. Senior engineers must be comfortable leading discussions and presenting technical information to government personnel.  Required Qualifications E
