You are willing to work 100% of your week onsite at either an SEI or customer facility.
You can pass a background check and obtain and maintain an active Department of Defense security clearance.
You’re willing to travel (25%) outside your office location to other SEI offices, sponsor sites, conferences, and offsite meetings.
