Notice of Result letters will not be sent to applicants who respond to this flyer.
This is an interdisciplinary position and may be filled by a General Engineer (0801 series), an Operations Research Analyst (1515 series), a Mathematician (1520 series), or a Computer Scientist (1550 series) depending upon the qualifications of the candidate. Applicants in positions with occupational series other than those listed (0801, 1515, 1520 and 1550) may apply; however, you must apply directly to the series listed in this vacancy that is most applicable to your qualifications. FOR THE ND-04: Your resume must also demonstrate at least one year of specialized experience at or equivalent to the ND-03 (GS-09/11 equivalent) pay band in the Federal service or equivalent experience in the private or public sector as a professional engineer or scientist conducting design, development, test & evaluation, integration, or in-service engineering for system engineering projects. Examples of specialized experience may include: conducting systems engineering analysis and design; utilizing agile development, data analytics, and Model Base System Engineering (MBSE} tools to create, manage, and analyze digital models of complex systems, supporting design, simulation, and requirements traceability. FOR THE ND-03: Your resume must also demonstrate at least one year of specialized experience at or equivalent to the ND-02 (GS-05/08 equivalent) pay band in the Federal service or equivalent experience in the private or public sector as a professional engineer or scientist that demonstrates an understanding and application of core system engineering principles (i.e. requirements analysis, design, integration, testing, and/or maintenance) to solve problems or perform tasks in support of engineering assignments. Additional qualification information can be found from the following Office of Personnel Management website: all-professional-engineering-positions-0800.pdf (opm.gov) Operations Research Series 1515 (opm.gov) Mathematics Series 1520 (opm.gov) Computer Science Series 1550 (opm.gov) 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.
