Job Title: Multimodal Routing Engineer, Senior Job Category: Logistics Time Type: Full time Minimum Clearance Required to Start: TS/SCI Employee Type: Regular-Long Term Assignment Percentage of Travel Required: Up to 10% Type of Travel: Continental US * * * The Opportunity: CACI is seeking an experienced Multimodal Routing Engineer, Senior to support theater distribution, transportation planning, and resilient logistics operations across the Indo-Pacific. The Multimodal Routing Engineer serves as CACI's Material Forecasting/ Planning/ Distribution professional responsible for analyzing, designing, optimizing, and synchronizing multimodal transportation routes for the movement of personnel, equipment, supplies, and sustainment commodities across air, maritime, ground, and intermodal networks. Reporting to the Transportation and Distribution Lead, this position provides senior-level routing expertise to improve velocity, capacity utilization, resiliency, and continuity of logistics support across geographically dispersed and contested operating environments. The Multimodal Routing Engineer works closely with Government stakeholders, strategic mobility planners, movement control personnel, port and airfield operations coordinators, supply chain analysts, logistics planners, transportation providers, data analysts, host-nation partners, and mission partners to develop primary, alternate, contingency, and emergency routing options. The position supports Joint Theater Distribution Centers (JTDCs), Intermediate Staging Bases (ISBs), ports, airfields, warehouses, staging areas, prepositioned stocks, and forward operating locations while integrating transportation capacity, infrastructure, access, threat, weather, customs, handling, and delivery-time considerations into executable routing solutions. Responsibilities: • Develop, analyze, and optimize multimodal routing solutions for personnel, equipment, cargo, and sustainment commodities moving through air, maritime, ground, and intermodal transportation networks. • Design primary, alternate, contingency, and emergency (PACE) routing options that maintain logistics continuity during disrupted, degraded, contested, or denied operations. • Analyze theater Lines of Communication (LOCs), transportation nodes, corridors, ports, airfields, road networks, staging areas, and transfer points to identify optimal movement paths. • Evaluate route capacity, transit time, cost, infrastructure limitations, handling requirements, transportation availability, customs constraints, access permissions, weather, and operational risk. • Synchronize strategic and intra-theater movement requirements with sealift, airlift, surface transportation, contracted transportation, and other available distribution capabilities. • Develop routing plans supporting force deployment, redeployment, RSOI, sustainment, contingency operations, exercises, humanitarian assistance/disaster response, and emergent missions. • Coordinate with movement control teams, port operations coordinators, airfield operations coordinators, strategic mobility planners, supply chain personnel, and operational planners to deconflict and prioritize movement requirements. • Analyze transportation demand, cargo characteristics, delivery priorities, node capacities, material handling requirements, and transportation schedules to recommend efficient mode and route combinations. • Support routing of critical sustainment commodities, including fuel, ammunition, repair parts, medical materiel, subsistence, and other mission-essential supplies. • Assess chokepoints, single points of failure, infrastructure vulnerabilities, adversary threats, and transportation shortfalls; develop routing alternatives and mitigation recommendations. • Support Joint Theater Distribution Center (JTDC) and Intermediate Staging Base (ISB) operations by optimizing inbound, outbound, transshipment, staging, and onward movement routes. • Integrate prepositioned stocks, warehouse locations, inventory positions, demand forecasts, and distribution priorities into theater routing and distribution planning. • Apply geospatial analysis, network analysis, optimization techniques, transportation modeling, and data visualization to evaluate route feasibility and performance. • Develop route matrices, movement timelines, transportation network maps, capacity assessments, risk indicators, dashboards, and executive decision-support products. • Coordinate with host-nation, coalition, commercial, and Government transportation stakeholders to identify access requirements, routing restrictions, cross-border considerations, and available transportation capabilities. • Support customs, diplomatic clearance, port clearance, airfield access, hazardous material, oversized cargo, and special-handling considerations affecting route selection and execution. • Monitor transportation network status and recommend dynamic rerouting in response to changing mission priorities, infrastructure outages, weather, congestion, threat conditions, or transportation availability. • Validate routing assumptions and recommendations using authoritative logistics, transportation, geospatial, operational, and intelligence-informed data as authorized and appropriate. • Document routing methodologies, assumptions, constraints, risks, alternatives, and recommendations in technical analyses, operational plans, SOPs, and briefings. • Provide senior-level technical guidance and mentorship to logistics planners and analysts supporting multimodal routing, distribution planning, and theater movement operations. Qualifications: Required: • Minimum 8 years of experience supporting transportation planning, distribution management, logistics planning, material forecasting/planning/distribution, strategic mobility, movement control, or related Government or Department of Defense operations. • Experience developing or analyzing multimodal transportation routes involving airlift, sealift, ground tra
