Requirements analysis
Systems architecture and detailed design Simulation and modeling of complex systems Preliminary and Detailed design Prototyping Data Analysis and Process Improvement Integration and testing/verification System troubleshooting
Provide individual technical contribution and systems engineering leadership in the development of advanced systems Work assignments through the development cycle from concept development, system trade-off analysis, system requirements definition and flow down, system architecture design, system integration and test…all the way down to evaluation of system performance at both the component and system level. Support engineering project teams in the pursuit of new business, including the definition of advanced design concepts to address customer needs, preparation of engineering inputs, cost estimates and schedules for proposals.
Utilize and maintain existing analytical models, develop new models, design tests, and validate performance simulations using standard or developed test equipment. Conduct research and prepare technical documentation based on findings, to include recommendations or alternative proposals for action. Work with variety of stakeholders including interfacing with internal and external project teams, company personnel (Engineering, Operations, Program Management, Business Development), and the customer community.
Education, Experience, License, or Certification
Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or related technical field 2 or more years of related experience Experience with C/C++ software development Candidate must hold or be able to obtain a SECRET security clearance Experience in embedded, real‑time, or hardware‑adjacent software environments preferred Experience working in classified or defense environments is a plus Experience supporting integrated hardware‑software systems beneficial
Skills and Abilities
Requires excellent written and oral communication skills, the ability to understand and follow complex, detailed instructions, and the ability to work both independently and in a team environment. Must be able to approach technical problems in a logical and scientific manner. Must be flexible and able to handle multiple priorities, and be able to work for short to moderate periods of time without direct supervision. Advantage - Have knowledge and experience in the development of Concept(s) of Operation, requirements development and management using dedicated tools (Cameo/Doors), conceptualization and analysis of complex systems architecture design through modeling, system/subsystem integration/test planning and execution, and qualification testing Desire to learn new skills; examples:
RF (radar, microwave comms, etc) Power (AC 120/240V, DC 5/12/24/28/48V, conversion, distribution) IT and networking Scripting/automation of tasks
Ability to take in customer needs and scenarios, and develop solutions Demonstrated success in present field (electrical/mechanical/SW, etc) - specific accomplishments beyond team success Experience/comfort/ease talking with customers/end users Can clearly articulate plans and actions taken Thinks logically through new/unfamiliar scenarios
Travel/Physical Requirements
Ability to travel 20% to support projects. Travel; outdoor field work will be required at different weather conditions Must be a “US Person” and have ability to obtain security clearance. Existing clearance is an advantage.
