Job description
We are seeking Spectrum Management SME to support our program in Washington DC. Position requires a minimum of a SECRET clearance.
This program supports a federal customer responsible for managing and overseeing the use of the electromagnetic (EM) spectrum across government organizations. The effort focuses on the modernization and enhancement of the Equipment Location Certification Information Database (EL-CID), a mission-critical application used to support the electronic preparation and processing of spectrum certification requests for telecommunications systems, including satellites, radars, antennas, transmitters, and receivers. As part of the customer's modernization strategy, functionality currently available in EL-CID Desktop is being transitioned to EL-CID Online, a browser-based platform that streamlines spectrum certification activities and improves operational efficiency. The program supports compliance with federal spectrum management policies, engineering standards, and spectrum allocation requirements while enabling stakeholders to effectively review, analyze, and certify telecommunications systems through an agile, continuously evolving application environment.
The Spectrum Subject Matter Expert serves as the functional lead for the EL-CID modernization effort, acting as the liaison between government spectrum engineers, stakeholders, and software development teams. The individual is responsible for eliciting, documenting, and validating business and technical requirements; developing JIRA user stories with detailed acceptance criteria; managing and prioritizing the functional product backlog; and supporting agile development activities through three-week sprint cycles.

Additional responsibilities include facilitating stakeholder reviews, creating process and system relationship diagrams, supporting the migration of EL-CID Desktop functionality to EL-CID Online, analyzing XML-based data exchanges, developing Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) estimates for requirements, and ensuring that implemented capabilities align with mission, operational, and engineering objectives. Experience with EL-CID, Agile methodologies, and spectrum certification processes is highly desirable.

Own the product backlog and attend Integrated Project Team (IPT) meetings to describe functionality in the JIRA story and assist government stakeholders to prioritize the work.
Help developers understand the functionality to be implemented.
Help to test the functionality after developers implement the changes.

Provide Operational support expertise. Assist with debugging issues in production and assist agencies with their Spectrum questions.
Good written and verbal communication skills coupled with strong listening skills.
Ability to write documentation where audience is a spectrum engineer.
Ability to prepare mock-ups, flow diagrams, or models, and procedures along with conducting feasibility studies to design possible system solutions.
