Key skills for this role
This position supports Revolutional’s federal customer as part of an application transformation and modernization initiative.
This program is driving a large-scale transformation of systems into a data-centric, cloud-native ecosystem capable of supporting high-volume, near real-time data processing and advanced analytics. The work includes modernization of legacy applications, development of new cloud-native solutions, and implementation of DevSecOps and scaled Agile practices across the organization.
The core challenge: orchestrating complex, multi-contractor delivery while transforming both technology and operating models without disrupting mission-critical operations.
As a Lead Systems Engineer at Revolutional, you will drive end-to-end systems engineering execution across a large-scale federal modernization program.
You will operate between architecture and delivery—ensuring that system designs are translated into working, integrated, and scalable solutions. You will lead engineering efforts across multiple teams, coordinating system integration, requirements alignment, and technical execution.
This role requires someone who can manage complexity across systems, enforce engineering discipline, and ensure delivery meets both technical and mission requirements.
