- Translate evolving dataflow requirements into actionable engineering specifications.
- Collaborate closely with Operations teams to rebuild and deploy dataflows within Corp-DDS.
- Lead or support modernization initiatives migrating legacy hardware-based dataflows to virtualized cloud environments.
- Evaluate existing dataflows and redesign them for scalability, resilience, and performance optimization.
- Develop systems architectural diagrams depicting software components, system integrations, and dataflow architectures.
- Provide analytical and technical expertise to ensure mission data continuity during T&D transitions.
