## Description NextGen is seeking a highly motivated Workflow Validation/Field Enablement Engineer to support the testing, validation, operational assessment, and field enablement of agentic AI workflows deployed across tactical and operational environments. This role focuses on validating AI-enabled workflows, ensuring operational reliability, supporting user acceptance activities, and enabling end users to effectively operate AI-assisted tools within mission environments using ReadiChat. ReadiChat is a mission-focused, agentic AI platform designed to help organizations build, deploy, govern, and scale specialized AI agents for operational workflows. It combines AI agents, workflow orchestration, grounded knowledge, testing frameworks, and enterprise controls into a single collaborative workspace. The ideal candidate will possess experience in operational testing, workflow validation, systems integration testing, user training, and field support. This role requires close collaboration with AI engineers, integration teams, mission stakeholders, and operational users to ensure AI-enabled workflows are safe, reliable, explainable, and mission-effective across edge, tactical, and disconnected environments, including deployments on the X9 Spider Mission Computer architecture. ## Responsibilities Build and maintain end-to-end validation plans and operational test strategies for agentic AI workflows across local tools, edge-deployed models, MCP services, and external mission systems. Develop and execute regression test suites supporting prompt updates, model changes, MCP server modifications, X9 Spider hardware and firmware updates, workflow revisions, and published agent releases. Define and document pass/fail criteria for operational AI workflows, including correctness, reliability, safety, latency, explainability, usability, and mission effectiveness. Validate guardrails, operational boundaries, tool-use behavior, and workflow reliability under adversarial, malfo
