What this job asks for AI summary
A systems engineering role supporting the design, architecture, and integration of solutions that span hardware, software, and specialized engineering domains such as RF and SIGINT. Day-to-day work involves contributing to system models, interface definitions, use cases, and requirements artifacts within a DoD/Intelligence Community environment. Suits engineers familiar with SAFe Agile practices and the Targeting/TCPED cycle who hold an active TS/SCI with Polygraph clearance.

Why we read it this way (7)
No work location is specified in the posting beyond 'Continental US' travel; the CBSA/metro is unknown. The role likely sits at a cleared facility but no city is named.
The TS/SCI with Polygraph clearance is an explicit hard gate ('Must have active TS/SCI with Polygraph clearance').
The salary range ($76,000–$155,700/year) spans a wide band, which CACI attributes to geographic location and contract wage rates rather than a specific seniority level.
The role is a classic Systems Engineer in the defense/intelligence domain — it spans hardware, software, RF/SIGINT, and systems architecture. 15-1299 (Computer Occupations, All Other) is used as the closest fit for a multi-discipline systems engineering role; 15-1211 (Computer Systems Analysts) is the runner-up given the systems analysis and requirements definition work.
'Agile Software Development experience' and 'System Engineering documentation development' appear under the 'Desired Skills' heading and are treated as preferred.
No specific total years of experience are stated in the posting.
Requires a TS/SCI clearance — the cleared population is a small fraction of this occupation, so the real candidate pool is materially smaller than the estimate below, which does not model clearance.
