This includes developing adapters, common data models, translation layers, synchronization mechanisms, and classification-aware data architecture that ensure systems remain coherent from headquarters to the tactical edge.</p><p>This is a senior role combining <strong>deep technical execution and system-level architecture leadership</strong>. You will define the architecture, build key components, and guide a team of engineers and partners to deliver production-ready integrations across disconnected environments, varied data models, and multi-enclave deployments.</p><h3>Key Responsibilities</h3><h3>Cross-Platform Integration Architecture</h3><ul><li data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="20" data-list-defn-props="{" data-aria-posinset="1" data-aria-level="1">Design and implement the bidirectional data layer connecting major DoW C2 platforms (Palantir and Anduril)</li><li data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="20" data-list-defn-props="{" data-aria-posinset="1" data-aria-level="1">Develop common data models and translation layers to resolve schema and vocabulary mismatches</li><li data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="20" data-list-defn-props="{" data-aria-posinset="1" data-aria-level="1">Build and validate production-grade adapters (e.g., Foundry, Lattice) in live government environments</li><li data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="20" data-list-defn-props="{" data-aria-posinset="1" data-aria-level="1">Advance integration concepts into fully implemented, tested system-level data flows</li></ul><h3>Data Integration &amp; Authoritative Source Onboarding</h3><ul><li data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="21" data-list-defn-props="{" data
