Multi-Enclave/Commercial Solutions SME

Clearwaters.IT is recruiting for a Multi-Enclave/Commercial Solutions SME. In this capacity, they will (but not limited to) design and manage environments where users can simultaneously and securely access multiple isolated security domains or clearance levels (enclaves) from a single device or desktop

Location: Hickam AFB, Hawaii (on-site)

Responsibilities:

• Manage and maintain Client Hosted Virtualization (CHV) on a designated cross domain access solution client in accordance with established processes and procedures and deploying solutions that are used to logically split a physical machine into many independent virtual machines.
• Maintain a solution outlined by a detailed engineering solution that accesses applications and data from multiple security domains on a single desktop while reducing the footprint, power, and administrative costs and providing increased security. This solution must ensure Type-1 Encryption devices and/or Protective Distribution Systems (PDS) are not required.
• Manage Outer and Inner VPN Concentrators, workstations which include a SIPR Thin VM, NIPR Thin/Thick VM, Inner VPN Appliance, Outer VPN Appliance (e.g.: AnyConnect), and Network Driver Appliance.
• Manage and maintain a solution that provides remote access to classified enclaves through NSA’s Mobile Access Capability Package (MACP), making possible remote enclave access via tablet or laptop. Provide architectural diagrams for all deployed solutions.
• Act as a cross-domain access solution deployment site leads and manage teams via operational checklists, as required.
•  Manage and maintain a Virtualized Multi-Tenant Data Center and various secure hybrid Cloud Computing solutions, virtualized storage, networks, and desktops in the Pacific Theater or other theater wide DoD deployments to include server-accelerating RAM-based VDI data storage, with server RAM as the primary storage tier, virtualized server acceleration and a cross-domain access solution.
• Determine technical requirements to support AF/DoD mission-sets, plan and coordinate virtualization configurations with enterprise technicians to include storage, memory, compute, and network infra structure configurations with the local base. Plan and coordinate servers chosen for physical to virtual at the base with base enterprise -technicians and primary staff personnel.
• Manage virtual capabilities, to include the storage, network, server (applications and databases) aspects and the software required to centrally manage this architecture. Software may include VMWare vSphere, Citrix Xen, and Microsoft Hyper-V platforms and extends to desktop management and deployment of the VDI otherwise referred to Thin, Zero, Multi-Level, or Trusted Thin Clients
• Provide test and training for Airmen to manage, the complex backend virtual environment to include the cross-domain access solution.
•  Manage and configure virtual capabilities where limited bandwidth and access create unique challenges. This includes large areas and land masses that are disconnected and separated.
• Provide Customer support and troubleshooting for Virtual Servers and VDI client hardware and software and coordinating with Government Network Control Centers and Higher Headquarters
• Plan and coordinate virtualization configurations with enterprise technicians and network infrastructure configurations with the local base. Plan and coordinate servers chosen for physical to virtual at the base with base enterprise technicians and A3/6 personnel.
• Perform first line trouble-shooting activities (if required) for installed environments in conjunction with remote enterprise technicians and local base technicians.
