Job description

We are seeking a Systems Engineer to support a team responsible for eight products enabling and supporting I&L mission operations. This role combines systems engineering with hands‑on technical and operational engineering, requiring strong requirements discipline alongside practical technical understanding.

The Systems Engineer will work closely with a Tech Lead and cross‑functional stakeholders to plan, define, document, and implement solutions across multiple products, including COTS and GOTS products.

In addition to supporting ongoing development and integration efforts, this role will play a key part in establishing Agile practices and foundational processes that define how work is planned, executed, tested, and operationally supported.

This position is well suited for someone who is comfortable operating in an environment where processes are still being defined, enjoys organising and structuring new efforts, and can balance big‑picture system thinking with day‑to‑day delivery. The ideal candidate brings clarity to ambiguity, drives work forward, and acts as a connective layer between business needs, technical implementation, and operational outcomes.

Key Responsibilities

• Serve as the primary Systems Engineering partner to the Tech Lead and Agile team across multiple products
• Lead requirements analysis, decomposition, and documentation, translating business and operational needs into clear, testable requirements
• Establish and maintain systems documentation using Confluence, including system views, workflows, interfaces, and architectural decision records
• Collaborate closely with engineering, product, and stakeholders to support new product development and enhancements
• Help define and implement team‑level processes, including requirements management, change control, and traceability
• Support integration and operational use of COTS and GOTS products, including evaluation, configuration, and sustainment considerations
• Create and manage UAT processes, including test planning, acceptance criteria, and coordination with stakeholders
• Participate in system and integration testing to ensure requirements are validated end‑to‑end
• Use JIRA to manage requirements, stories, dependencies, and acceptance criteria within Agile workflows
• Leverage GitLab for collaboration with development teams, including understanding pipelines, versioning, and release workflows
• Act as a bridge between business, technical, and operational perspectives to ensure scalable, sustainable solutions

Required Qualifications / Must Haves

• Experience as a Systems Engineer in an Agile or hybrid Agile environment
• Strong background in requirements analysis, documentation, and lifecycle management
• Experience supporting COTS and GOTS products
• Technical fluency sufficient to collaborate deeply with developers and architects (APIs, integrations, environments, etc.)
• Experience working across multiple products or systems simultaneously
• Hands‑on experience with JIRA and Confluence
• Experience defining and supporting UAT and testing processes
• Comfortable working in environments with evolving scope, new development, and immature processes

Desired Personal Attributes

• Drives solutions forward rather than waiting for direction
• Willingness to lean into ambiguous or undefined tasks
• Strong sense of ownership and accountability
• Ability to bring structure and organization to new efforts
• Comfortable balancing competing priorities while maintaining delivery momentum
• Clear communicator across technical and non‑technical stakeholders

Preferred / Nice‑to‑Have Qualifications

• Familiarity with GitLab (repositories, CI/CD concepts, release coordination)
• Background in operational systems engineering or production support environments
• Experience helping establish or mature Agile team practices
• Experience supporting multi‑product or platform‑based environments

What Success Looks Like

• Clear, actionable requirements trusted by development teams and stakeholders
• Well‑structured documentation that scales across the product ecosystem
• Strong partnership between Systems Engineering, Product, and Development
• Repeatable UAT and testing processes that reduce rework and delivery risk
• Agile practices that enable predictable and efficient delivery

Compensation

This range reflects the typical pay for the role and is one part of the company's comprehensive compensation package.
