  • Applicants must have a current, active in-scope DoD-issued Secret security clearance at the time of application, which is required to start
  • Experience in any aspect of the SE V-Model, with skills in areas such as requirements engineering (solicitation and decomposition), use case development, logical architecture modeling, interface definition, system testing, or requirements verification
