• Develop information system requirements aligned with DoD and IC system architecture standards
• Capture and update user and functional system requirements through user interviews, system reviews, and process assessments
• Support creation of logical data models based on functional requirements; develop use cases for new applications
• Interface directly with users to define problems, assess data availability, validate requirements, and resolve system design issues
• Administer cross-domain data transfer activities (Low-to-High, High-to-Low, Secret) and ensure proper logging and compliance
• Manage and track Government Laptops, CAC Readers, and peripherals for USCYBERCOM J2 personnel
