About the position

GovCIO is currently seeking a Network Engineer for our HUD proposal. This fully remote position is crucial for implementing computer system requirements by defining and analyzing system problems, as well as designing and testing standards and solutions. The Network Engineer will play a key role in gathering information about the capabilities of Company products, investigating the technical capabilities of both Company products and competing equipment, and staying updated on developments in hardware and software. The responsibilities of the Network Engineer include generating quantifiable requirements based on customer descriptions, system planning, and design, ensuring that these requirements comply through formal verification methods. The role also involves translating high-level product development strategies into network and system requirement specifications, collaborating with other engineering disciplines to develop detailed implementation requirements. In addition, the Network Engineer will establish and coordinate the development of standards, practices, and procedures related to network and system development. This includes designing interfaces and integrating network and system elements to function cohesively. Performance assessment will be conducted using evaluation criteria and technical performance measures, and the Network Engineer will act as a customer liaison to support business development activities and shape requirements. The position also entails coordinating the planning, design, and installation of equipment, utilizing knowledge of engineering and programming, as well as sophisticated instruments and computers. Participation in system conceptual design and documentation of design concepts is expected, along with the installation of new hardware, systems, and software for networks. The Network Engineer will design, create, and build network services, equipment, and devices, generate system-level requirements verification procedures, and monitor system performance to implement performance tuning. Finally, reviewing test plans and procedures to ensure they meet contractual objectives and participating in the testing process to validate requirements are also key responsibilities.
