Cross-Domain Solution Integrator

MANTECH seeks a motivated, career and customer-oriented Cross-Domain Solution Integrator to help support our current USMC contract out of Stafford, VA.

The Tactical Cross-Domain Solution Integrator manages, engineers, deploys, and optimizes secure information exchange and system integration across multiple security domains and classification levels. This role ensures complex data streams - including sensor telemetry, operational tracking data, platform feeds, and command and control (C2) information - securely transit security boundaries. This is an operational and tactical integration role operating in garrison, deployed, laboratory, and mission-critical environments, emphasizing tactical protocols and operational data quality.

Responsibilities include but are not limited to:  

• Analyze and map operational information exchange requirements and message transactions from sensors, platforms, processors, and C2 systems through cross-domain solutions to consumers across security domains.
• Specify, define, configure, and evaluate data filtering, sanitization, translation, and normalization mechanisms to ensure data quality, covariance, high-fidelity track preservation, and metadata continuity across system boundaries.
• Coordinate system integration and interface agreements with systems on both sides of the security boundary, including mission planning tools, common operational display systems, C2 systems, and sensor integration nodes.
• Validate and troubleshoot complex data transfer pipelines involving tactical/operational data links, structured messaging schemas, streaming video, geospatial tracks, telemetry, and metadata.
• Formulate boundary network data pathways, specifying gateways, routing, network segmentation, virtual networks, ports, protocols, and services, coordinating with cybersecurity engineers on configurations.
• Identify, isolate, log, track, and resolve issues such as metadata failures, data/track breaks, multi-hop sharing degradation, boundary transfer failures, dropped messages, corrupted metadata, and synchronization issues. Maintain integration risk assessments and mitigation strategies.
• Plan and execute verification and validation testing in controlled laboratory environments to evaluate data fidelity, metadata preservation, multi-enclave data distribution, multi-hop data sharing, and filter enforcement prior to operational deployment.

Minimum Qualifications: 

• Bachelor’s degree and at least 5 years of related experience engaging or integrating C2 or sensor systems (ground, aviation, maritime, unmanned operational picture/sensor systems, operational mission platforms, C2 applications, or sensor processing pipelines) across segmented networks. An additional 2 years of experience may be substituted in lieu of degree.
• Demonstrated experience integrating systems across security boundaries or high assurance data transfer gateways, specifically with tactical or operational messages and data types (e.g., tactical messages, track/targeting data, video, metadata, structured schemas).
• In-depth knowledge of track and information exchange requirements, including covariance, metadata preservation, multi-hop data distribution/sharing, track correlation, schema mapping, and operational picture/data quality
• Strong working knowledge of network communication fundamentals, sufficient to specify data paths, including gateways, routing implications, network segmentation, virtual networks, and port, protocol, and service allocations.
• Proven experience operating, fielding, and troubleshooting technology in tactical environments with denied, disrupted, intermittent, and limited (DDIL) communications, or in bandwidth-limited, disconnected, or austere operational environments.

Preferred Qualifications: 

• Joint interface control, tactical data link management, or link planner experience.
• Direct experience configuring, integrating, or working with cross-domain solution filter, data-broker, or guard technologies (e.g., enterprise/tactical transfer, high-assurance guard, transfer appliances, secure data broker platforms).
• Direct experience supporting cross-domain solution procurement, accreditation, or national-level validation.
• Background as a network/data systems administrator, cyberspace specialist, intelligence specialist, network engineer, or mission data systems analysis 

Clearance Requirements: 

• Must have a current/active TS/SCI security clearance.  

Physical Requirements: 

• Office work environment with occasional travel to outdoor test and evaluation sites.  
• Must be able to remain in a stationary position 50% of the time.  
• Needs to occasionally move about inside the office to access file cabinets, office machinery, meeting spaces, and collaborative work areas.
