Senior Hardware Systems Engineer — Mission-Critical Systems

Actalent; United States; Ibrido; USD 76.000 - 135.000; Tempo pieno

Descrizione del lavoro

Actalent is seeking a Senior Staff Hardware Systems Engineer to lead integration, verification, and deployment of mission-critical hardware systems. You will build, test, and sustain complex hardware in collaboration with manufacturing, logistics, suppliers, QA, and operations.

You will create system architecture artifacts, perform root cause analyses, and contribute to MBSE and SysML activities, while supporting CAM processes and platform integration across CONUS/OCONUS sites.

Competenze

• Bachelor's degree in Systems Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical discipline.
• At least 5 years of experience in systems engineering, integration, test, or deployment.
• Active Secret Security Clearance.
• Willingness to travel approximately 15% for CONUS/OCONUS activities.
• Experience with system integration, verification, validation, and deployment of complex systems.
• Hands-on hardware build, rack-and-stack, and lab integration experience.

Mansioni

• Lead system integration, verification, validation, testing, deployment, and sustainment activities for mission-critical systems across the full systems engineering lifecycle.
• Develop detailed test requirements, verification plans, and acceptance criteria, and execute system-level test procedures to validate system performance and compliance.
• Perform hands-on system build activities including rack-and-stack integration, hardware installation, cable management, system initialization, and configuration of complex hardware-based systems.
• Create and maintain technical artifacts such as system architecture diagrams, DoDAF views, topology diagrams, interconnect diagrams, interface control documents (ICDs), and technical specifications.
• Troubleshoot hardware, software, and network issues, perform root cause analysis, and drive corrective and preventive actions to improve system reliability and performance.
• Maintain hardware and software baselines within a formal Configuration Management (CM) environment and support engineering change processes including ECR, ERB, and CCB activities.
• Support hardware lifecycle management activities including technology refresh, logistics coordination, inventory tracking, and return material authorization (RMA) processes.
• Coordinate with customers, suppliers, and internal engineering teams to plan and support system deployments, field installations, testing events, and transitions into operational use.
• Support and participate in design activities such as requirements development, concepts of operations (CONOPS), and design reviews (PDR, CDR) to ensure testability, deployability, and sustainment considerations are incorporated.
• Contribute to the development and continuous improvement of systems engineering processes, including the application of model-based systems engineering (MBSE) and SysML where appropriate.
• Support and, when needed, lead factory acceptance tests (FAT), site acceptance tests (SAT), and operational test events for deployed systems.
• Assist with platform integration activities, including SWaP-related considerations, interconnect design, and integration of RF, DSP, signal processing, and satellite communication components.
• Provide on-site and remote support for deployed systems in field or operational environments, including troubleshooting and sustaining activities.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure alignment between system design, integration, logistics, and operational needs, driving continuous improvement across deployed systems.
