Interested applicants must follow the directions in the "How to Apply" section of this flyer to be considered. There may or may not be actual vacancies filled from this flyer. Notice of Result letters will not be sent to applicants who respond to this flyer. Responsibilities You will represent senior engineering leadership, guide project direction, and ensure every effort aligns with required objectives while supporting consistent quality and dependable results. You will oversee technical development across assigned programs, confirm that every project satisfies required technical expectations, participate in detailed technical reviews, and address challenges on projects and shared outcomes. You will perform systems engineering activities that include planning tests, evaluating requirements, confirming requirements are met, analyzing functions, verifying designs, and producing complete engineering documents for successful delivery. You will coordinate the work of specialized technical experts, encourage effective collaboration, resolve complex technical concerns whenever possible, and communicate unresolved issues to higher engineering leadership for timely action. You will analyze complete systems, maintain effective system control throughout development, support the creation and delivery of engineering documentation, and help ensure reliable performance from planning through final implementation. You will apply advanced technical knowledge to solve difficult engineering problems, support project teams with informed guidance, improve coordination across related efforts, and strengthen successful completion through careful oversight. Requirements Conditions of Employment Qualifications Your resume must also demonstrate at least one year of specialized experience at or equivalent to the GS-11 grade level or NH-02 pay band in the Federal service or equivalent experience in the private or public sector. Specialized experience must demonstrate the following: 1. Expert knowledge of and demonstrated experience in applying systems engineering principles. 2. Ability to work on a diverse team engaged in Defense Acquisition program management activities. 3. Expert knowledge of any of the following functional areas: - Communications, Intelligence, and Networking Systems - Ground transportation and Engineering Systems (i.e Expeditionary Power, Motor Transportation) - Information Systems and Infrastructure (i.e Information Technology, Computing Platforms, Network Services) - Infantry Weapon Systems (i.e. Anti-Armor, Infantry, Marine Expeditionary Rifle Squad, Recon, Optics) - Combat Equipment and Support Systems (i.e. Chemical Biological Radiological and Nuclear Defense, Infantry Combat/Equipment, Test Measurement, and Diagnostic Equipment) - Weapons/Sensors Development/Integration (i.e. MAGTF C2, Air Defense, Radar, Unmanned, Command/Control) - Armor and Fire Support Systems (i.e. Expeditionary Fire Support, Artillery Rocket Systems, Tank, Assault Amphibious) - Command and Control - Information Technology Systems - Counter Improvised Explosive Devices 4. Ability to communicate effectively both orally and in writing Additional qualification information can be found from the following Office of Personnel Management website: https://www.opm.gov/policy-data-oversight/classification-qualifications/general-schedule-qualification-standards/0800/files/all-professional-engineering-positions-0800.pdf Experience refers to paid and unpaid experience, including volunteer work done through National Service programs (e.g., professional, philanthropic, religious, spiritual, community, student, social). Volunteer work helps build critical competencies, knowledge, and skills and can provide valuable training and experience that translates directly to paid employment. Education A. Degree: Engineering. To be acceptable, the program must: (1) lead to a bachelor's degree in a school of engineering with at least one program accredited by ABET; or (2) include differential and integral calculus and courses (more advanced than first-year physics and chemistry) in five of the following seven areas of engineering science or physics: (a) statics, dynamics; (b) strength of materials (stress-strain relationships); (c) fluid mechanics, hydraulics; (d) thermodynamics; (e) electrical fields and circuits; (f) nature and properties of materials (relating particle and aggregate structure to properties); and (g) any other comparable area of fundamental engineering science or physics, such as optics, heat transfer, soil mechanics, or electronics. OR B. Combination of education and experience -- college-level education, training, and/or technical experience that furnished (1) a thorough knowledge of the physical and mathematical sciences underlying engineering, and (2) a good understanding, both theoretical and practical, of the engineering sciences and techniques and their applications to one of the branches of engineering. The adequacy of such background must be demonstrated by one of the following: 1. Professional registration or licensure -- Current registration as an Engineer Intern (EI), Engineer in Training (EIT)1 , or licensure as a Professional Engineer (PE) by any State, the District of Columbia, Guam, or Puerto Rico. Absent other means of qualifying under this standard, those applicants who achieved such registration by means other than written test (e.g., State grandfather or eminence provisions) are eligible only for positions that are within or closely related to the specialty field of their registration. For example, an applicant who attains registration through a State Board's eminence provision as a manufacturing engineer typically would be rated eligible only for manufacturing engineering positions. 2. Written Test -- Evidence of having successfully passed the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE)2 examination or any other written test required for professionalregistration by an engineering licensure board in the various States, the District of Columbia, Guam, and Puerto Rico. 3. Specified academic courses -- Successful completion of at least 60 semester hours of courses in the physical, mathematical, and engineering sciences and that included the courses specified in the basic requirements under paragraph A. The courses must be fully acceptable toward meeting the requirements of an engineering program as described in paragraph A. 4. Related curriculum -- Successful completion of a curriculum leading to a bachelor's degree in an appropriate scientific field, e.g., engineering technology, physics, chemistry, architecture, computer science, mathematics, hydrology, or geology, may be accepted in lieu of a bachelor's degree in engineering, provided the applicant has had at least 1 year of professional engineering experience acquired under professional engineering supervision and guidance. Ordinarily there should be either an established plan of intensive training to develop professional engineering competence, or several years of prior professional engineering-@type experience, e.g., in interdisciplinary positions. (The above examples of related curricula are not allinclusive.) Additional Information This position is covered by the Department of Defense Priority Placement Program. Several vacancies may be filled. Recruitment/Relocation expenses reimbursed: Yes-Relocation expenses (i.e. PCS) for candidates outside of the commuting area are authorized in accordance with applicable travel regulations and Department of Navy Policy. Relocation incentives as described in 5 USC 5753 may be authorized in accordance with applicable command policy. A tentative offer of employment will be rescinded if the selectee fails to meet the pre-employment requirements, including failure to report to any of the scheduled appointments. Federal annuitant information: The selection of an annuitant is subject to the Department of Defense and Department of the Navy policy on the employment of annuitants. Policy information may be found at: http://www.secnav.navy.mil/donhr/Documents/CivilianJobs/FedCivAnnuitants.pdf. Veteran's preference does not apply when selecting individuals under this specific hiring authority. However, if you claim veteran's preference, you will be required to submit supporting documentation with your application as described in the Required Documents section below.
