We are seeking a Senior Systems Engineer to support the Systems Integration and Test team on advanced space systems. This role focuses on end-to-end systems engineering, electrical interface definition, and testability analysis for complex spaceborne architectures. The ideal candidate will have strong experience with modeling and simulation tools, software-hardware integration, data analysis, and model-based systems engineering (MBSE), operating under an active TS/SCI clearance in a fast-paced mission environment.
RESPONSIBILITIES AND ESSENTIAL DUTIES:
- Perform system analysis and electrical interface definition using standard electrical engineering and systems tools (e.g., SPICE modeling, Excel macros, MATLAB, Python, C/C++, model-based engineering tools).
- Support development of mission concepts of operations (CONOPS) and end-to-end systems engineering activities.
- Coordinate across multiple organizations to design and develop solutions to complex electrical and systems engineering problems.
- Review, evaluate, and derive requirements for testability, and develop comprehensive test plans, procedures, and schedules for systems and subsystems.
- Direct preparation and execution of system and subsystem tests and support evaluation of test data against requirements.
- Support software-hardware integration and data analysis/processing for integration and test campaigns.
Basic Qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related discipline.
- Active or current TS/SCI clearance.
- Programming experience in MATLAB, Python, or a related language.
- Knowledge of MBSE principles, preferably with experience using CAMEO or similar system architecture tools.
- Experience with software-hardware integration and with analysis and processing of technical data.
Additional Qualifications (Desired Skills)
- Master’s or PhD in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related discipline.
- Highly motivated and self-directing, with ability to operate independently.
- Experience with database management supporting systems engineering or test data repositories.
- Experience in algorithm generation and troubleshooting.
- Experience with FPGA design or FPGA-related integration.
- Excellent teamwork, organizational, and communication skills, with capability to resolve issues across multidisciplinary groups.
Security / Clearance Requirement
- TS/SCI clearance required; must be a U.S. Citizen and able to obtain and maintain the required clearance.
