Candidates are required to have an active Secret clearance upon hire, and the ability to maintain this level of clearance during their employment. Education Requirements Bachelor's degree in Engineering (or related technical discipline); advanced degree preferred. Desired Skills Top Secret clearance preferred Overview People First... etc (company description). EEO statement etc. We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we should drop the EEO statement, overview maybe? The overview is company description; not sure if considered boilerplate. It's not required to keep but could be considered part of "About the role"? Usually "About the role" includes description of role and maybe company. The instructions: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." We need to include sections only when posting has real, specific content for it. We have content for About the role (role description). Responsibilities (duties). Requirements (maybe qualifications). Qualifications (education). Skills (knowledge). Benefits? Not mentioned. Pay? Not mentioned. Schedule? Not mentioned (travel 25% maybe schedule? but travel is not schedule). So we should not create Benefits, Pay, Schedule sections. We need to use

for section headings. Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

  for prose. We must preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details: location Huntsville, AL; role title; responsibilities: provide technical support and leadership in edge protocols and open APIs across system lifecycle; define requirements for, verify implementation of CoT, SAPIENT, OTP gateways; manage high-throughput low-latency DDS message buses; ensure developer APIs and SDKs for third-party sensor/effector vendor integration are specified, delivered, validated; develop and maintain Open API & SDK Documentation, Real-Time DDS Data Model/IDL Files, and CoT/SAPIENT Translation Gateways; ensure compliance with defense and industry standards by managing edge protocol and API processes effectively; interface with internal teams and external organizations to coordinate edge protocol and API objectives and strategies; prepare and present edge protocol and API findings, reports, and improvement plans to senior management and stakeholders; conduct strategic planning and coordination to support program objectives; provide technical guidance and leadership to peer and subordinate engineers within the edge protocol and API team; use digital tools and methodologies to manage cost, schedule, and performance for assigned activities; perform other tasks as assigned by the Chief Engineer and/or Product Manager; interface with internal PMs across PAE Fires and external organizations to include HQDA, ASA(ALT), JIATF 401, ATEC, AMCOM, and others for coordination and synchronization of edge protocol and API technical and programmatic objectives. We need to ensure not duplicate. We'll combine similar points. Qualifications/Requirements: 10+ years relevant experience; additional education may be substituted for years of experience; extensive experience in edge protocols and open APIs, particularly within defense or aerospace industries; knowledge of Cursor-on-Target (CoT), SAPIENT, OMG DDS, Protocol Buffers, REST/gRPC, and ZeroMQ; strong knowledge of industry standards and defense requirements; excellent communication and presentation skills; ability to lead and work within a multidisciplinary team; previous experience working in a U.S. Government Program Office (required); travel 25%; must be a U.S. Citizen; active DoD Secret clearance required; candidates required to have active Secret clearance upon hire and ability to maintain; education: Bachelor's degree in Engineering (or related technical discipline); advanced degree preferred; desired: Top Secret clearance preferred. We need to separate sections: About the role (maybe a brief paragraph), Responsibilities (list), Requirements (maybe combine qualifications and skills?), Qualifications (education), Skills (knowledge). But we need to avoid thin sections. Perhaps combine Requirements and Qualifications into one? But instructions: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have multiple sections if they have substantive content. We need to decide what goes where. About the role: general description of role, location, purpose. Responsibilities: list of duties. Requirements: maybe experience, travel, citizenship, clearance, government program office experience. Qualifications: education (Bachelor's degree, advanced degree preferred). Skills: technical knowledge (CoT, SAPIENT, DDS, etc.), communication, leadership. We must not repeat info. Ensure all substantive info appears somewhere. Let's craft. About the role:

  PeopleTec is seeking an Edge Protocols and Open APIs Lead for its Huntsville, AL location. The role sits within the Project Management Office (PMO) of PAE Fires, providing technical support to the program's Chief Engineer and Product Manager, standardizing machine‑to‑machine interfaces across tactical LANs throughout the system lifecycle, and interfacing with internal and external stakeholders (HQDA, ASA(ALT), JIATF 401, ATEC, AMCOM, etc.) to coordinate edge protocol and API objectives.

  That captures location, purpose, stakeholders. Responsibilities: list items. We need to include all duty items: Provide technical support and leadership in edge protocols and open APIs across the system lifecycle (design, development, acquisition, integration, testing, fielding, and sustainment). Define requirements for, and verify the implementation of, Cursor-on-Target (CoT), SAPIENT, and Open Threat Protocol (OTP) gateways. Manage high-throughput, low-latency Data Distribution Service (DDS) message buses. Ensure developer APIs and SDKs for third-party sensor/effector vendor integration are specified, delivered, and validated. Develop and maintain the Open API & SDK Documentation, Real-Time DDS Data Model/IDL Files, and CoT/SAPIENT Translation Gateways. Ensure compliance with defense and industry standards by managing edge protocol and API processes effectively. Interface with internal teams and external organizations to coordinate edge protocol and API objectives and strategies. Prepare and present edge protocol and API findings, reports, and improvement plans to senior management and stakeholders. Conduct strategic planning and coordination to support program objectives. Provide technical guidance and leadership to peer and subordinate engineers within the edge protocol and API team. Use digital tools and methodologies to manage cost, schedule, and performance for assigned activities. Perform other tasks as assigned by the Chief Engineer and/or Product Manager. Also interface with internal PMs across PAE Fires and external organizations to include HQDA, ASA(ALT), JIATF 401, ATEC, AMCOM, and others for coordination and synchronization of edge protocol and API technical and programmatic objectives. (That's similar to interface point; we can combine.) We'll produce
