Original job description

At MITRE, your passion fuels work that impacts our nation and improves lives. This is where your skills strengthen national security, cybersecurity, health, transportation, and citizen services. We’re a nonprofit engineering, applied research, and advanced technology organization working in the public interest. With objectivity and integrity at our core, we lead federally funded research and development centers for U.S. government agencies – collaborating with industry and academia to deliver integrated, high-impact solutions that advance our nation’s health, security, and prosperity. Our people tackle the toughest technical challenges, supported by competitive benefits, meaningful career development, and a culture of innovation, collaboration, and technical excellence. Choose MITRE for a career with purpose - and help shape the future.

Department Summary:

As an operator of Federally Funded Research and Development Centers, MITRE applies independent technical expertise to national security missions; the Advanced Wireless & SATCOM Department provides communications engineering, networking, and systems analysis capabilities. We seek a Lead Communications and Networking Command and Control (C2) Engineer to serve in a Deputy Trailboss capacity for Army Next Generation Command and Control (NGC2), shaping and delivering interoperable capabilities responsive to operational-unit needs. The successful candidate will provide trusted technical leadership across C2 applications, data services, tactical transport networks, and cloud & edge infrastructure to improve mission-level, system-of-systems performance.

Roles & Responsibilities:

Serve as a senior technical integrator and NGC2 Deputy Trailboss, shaping priorities, coordinating execution, and driving delivery of integrated C2 capabilities across acquisition stakeholders, operational units, and industry partners.
Lead end-to-end architectures spanning C2 applications, data layers, tactical IP transport, resilient communications, and cloud & edge compute infrastructure to satisfy Army mission needs, including in disconnected, degraded, intermittent, or limited-bandwidth (DDIL) environments.
Develop and connect operational mission threads, technical threads, system-of-systems designs, requirements, and interface assumptions to measurable operational outcomes and testable technical objectives.
Evaluate cross-layer architecture tradeoffs involving routing, bandwidth, latency, reliability, cybersecurity, interoperability, data exchange, synchronization, and placement of workloads at the edge versus in the cloud.
Organize and participate in laboratory integration, technical demonstrations, operational exercises, and iterative fielding events; coordinate root-cause analysis, integration-risk resolution, and performance assessment across vendor solutions.
Engage directly with government acquisition sponsors, Army operational users, and industry engineering teams to reconcile competing requirements, develop interface agreements, and provide independent technical recommendations.
Produce and review decision-quality engineering artifacts such as CONOPS, architecture diagrams, interface descriptions, trade studies, test plans, mission-thread analyses, and sponsor briefings; mentor staff and reinforce technical quality through peer review.

Basic Qualifications:

Typically requires a minimum of 8 years of related experience with a Bachelor’s degree; or 6 years and a Master’s degree; or a PhD with 3 years’ experience; or equivalent combination of related education and work experience.
Strong networking engineering foundation, including TCP/IP, routing and switching, wide-area or tactical transport, network performance, and network architecture across heterogeneous, multi-vendor environments.
Demonstrated experience leading complex communications, network-centric command-and-control, or comparable multi-system architecture, integration, test, or fielding initiatives.
Ability to analyze and explain tradeoffs among network transport, application services, data movement, compute infrastructure, and security, while maintaining deep expertise in networking.
Experience translating operational needs into technical requirements, mission or system threads, architecture & interface descriptions, and plans for evaluating capability performance.
Proven technical leadership and collaboration with government sponsors, operational users, and cross-organizational engineering teams; ability to manage competing priorities and reach practical technical decisions.
Strong written, verbal, and briefing skills with the ability to turn complex technical issues into clear options, risks, and recommendations for technical and nontechnical stakeholders.
Willingness and ability to travel approximately monthly to operational-unit locations, exercises, or fielding events, including travel to the U.S. West Coast and Pacific region.
Must be eligible to obtain and maintain a Secret U.S Government issued Security Clearance. Per the U.S. Government’s eligibility requirements, you must be a U.S Citizen to be considered for a security clearance.
This position has an on-site requirement of 5 days a week on-site.

Preferred Qualifications:

Experience supporting Army acquisition programs, command-and-control modernization, unit fielding, and the operational needs and force structure of corps, division, or brigade organizations.
Experience engineering or evaluating tactical communications in DDIL and contested environments, including MANET & mesh radios, SATCOM, tactical 5G, transport diversity, and network resiliency.
Familiarity with modern C2 application and data-layer architectures, including common operational picture, event-driven data exchange, APIs, data synchronization, or platforms such as Anduril, Raft, Palantir, or equivalent solutions.
Working knowledge of cloud-native and edge computing architectures, including containers & Kubernetes, virtualization, tactical compute hosting, and operating with intermittent backhaul connectivity.
Familiarity with interoperability and tactical data standards, such as Cursor on Target (CoT), Link 16, relevant message & data models, and interface control documentation.
Experience developing or evaluating mission threads and system-of-systems trade studies using model-based systems engineering (MBSE), architecture frameworks, modeling & simulation, or quantitative performance testing.
Experience planning and leading operational integration events, multi-vendor demonstrations, soldier-touchpoints, or field exercises and using observations to shape subsequent capability increments.

This requisition requires the candidate to have a minimum of the following clearance(s): Not Applicable This requisition requires the hired candidate to have or obtain, within one year from the date of hire, the following clearance(s): Secret
