What this job asks for AI summary
A Systems Engineer role at a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business supporting government programs. The position covers the full systems engineering lifecycle — requirements analysis, architecture design, integration planning, technical documentation, and interface control — with a focus on DoD-aligned frameworks. Candidates must hold an active TS/SCI clearance with a Maryland polygraph and bring hands-on experience across a defined set of infrastructure and security technologies.
Senior level · 7+ years · Baltimore-Columbia-Towson, MD · TS/SCI clearance · Full-time
We read this from the posting text with AI. Skim the description below before ruling yourself out.
Why we read it this way (7)
The posting requires experience in at least three of six listed technology areas (Red Hat/Windows CA, JunOS/SRX IPsec VPN, Hypori TLS, NetApp, VMware, secure cellular/fixed network software). Because no single technology is individually mandatory — only a combination of three — all six are marked preferred rather than required. The requirement is a breadth gate, not a per-tool gate.
The Maryland Polygraph requirement is explicit and specific; this strongly implies the role is tied to an NSA or similar Maryland-based intelligence community program.
Degree requirement: a Bachelor's in a relevant discipline is required, but the posting explicitly allows substitution of five additional years of SE experience (totaling 12 years) in lieu of the degree — so no degree is hard-gated.
No compensation figures are provided; the posting states pay will be determined individually after the interview process.
SOC classification is Medium confidence: the role is titled 'System Engineer' and is heavily requirements/architecture/documentation focused (15-1211 Computer Systems Analysts), but the technical depth and integration work could also fit 15-1299 (Computer Occupations, All Other) for a systems engineering specialty not cleanly captured elsewhere.
Ignored 2 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): TS/SCI with Polygraph, Service-Oriented Architecture.
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.
