You will develop and document agile, repeatable, and automated methodologies and transition paths for data migration and ingestion from the current legacy DB (e.g., MIDB) to a new cloud native environment. This project allows for a flexible work schedule working part time at a client site SCIF (western suburbs, Arlington, or SE D.C.) and the remainder at the Maxar offices in Herndon or Arlington, or work from home.
