Descrizione del lavoro

• University degree in Systems Engineering, Telecommunications Engineering, Computer Engineering, Electronic Engineering, Computer Science or another relevant discipline
• 10 years of relevant professional engineering experience, including significant experience with complex ICT/CIS, defence, aerospace, telecommunications or other highly integrated technical systems. Experience in Systems Engineering and/or Solution Architecture applied to complex systems
• Professional working proficiency in English, including the ability to produce and review complex technical documentation
• Complex Systems Engineering
• Significant experience in the architecture, design, integration, verification or lifecycle management of complex systems involving multiple technical domains
• Demonstrated ability to translate operational or business needs
• into system requirements, architectures and implementable technical solutions
• Experience defining and managing system boundaries; functional decomposition; interfaces; dependencies; constraints; non-functional requirements; system-level performance
• Technical Leadership
• Experience as a Technical Lead, Lead Systems Engineer, Solution Architect, System Architect or equivalent senior engineering role. Experience technically coordinating multidisciplinary engineering teams and SMEs
• Ability to provide clear technical direction
• Experience resolving technical disagreements and driving engineering decisions across organizational and technical boundaries

• Experience performing engineering trade-off analyses

DUTIES/ROLE:

• System and Solution Engineering
• Analyse operational, functional & project requirements & translate them into implementable DCIS solutions
• Define the overall technical solution and system architecture using the established DCIS Node, Module & Service taxonomies
• Ensure that the resulting system delivers the required end-to-end functionality & emergent behaviour
• Perform technical trade-off analyses considering performance, interoperability, security, deployability, resilience, maintainability, cost, schedule & technological maturity
• Model Based Systems Engineering
• Apply MBSE throughout the engineering lifecycle
• Map project requirements against existing Requirement Models, Implementation Guidelines & Implementation Constraints. Maximise reuse of approved Modules, Services, architectures & engineering patterns
• Identify gaps where existing Requirement Models or standardized building blocks cannot satisfy project requirements
• Complex Systems Product Ownership – Operational Nodes
• For designated Nodes already introduced into operational service, act as the Complex Systems Product Owner:
• Maintain technical ownership and system-level design responsibility for assigned operational Nodes throughout their lifecycle
• Maintain an authoritative understanding of the Node architecture, configuration, interfaces, dependencies, capabilities & design constraints
• Ensure that modifications to individual Modules or Services do not compromise the overall coherence, interoperability, performance, security or operational capability of the Node
• Assess operational technical issues from an end-to-end system perspective & coordinate their resolution with the appropriate SMEs, Model Custodians & service organizations
• Analyse requests for change, obsolescence issues, technology refreshes, security changes & evolving operational requirements to determine their impact on the complete Node
• Define & maintain the technical evolution path & Node roadmap, aligned with Module & Service roadmaps & the wider DCIS Target Architecture
• Identify technical debt, architectural divergence, lifecycle risks & emerging obsolescence before they become operational constraints. Initiate or recommend engineering activities required to maintain the technical viability of the Node
