Descripción de la vacante

SciTec seeks an experienced Systems Engineer to refine stakeholder needs and develop system-level requirements for operator-focused interfaces and displays in radar and mission systems.

You will define data flows, document architectures, ensure DoD-standard security and usability, and collaborate across radar, UI/UX, and backend teams to deliver cohesive system behavior.

Formación

• Minimum 5+ years of systems engineering on complex software/sensor/mission systems.
• Experience writing and managing system/interface requirements for user interfaces or mission displays.
• Familiarity with radar systems, real-time data flows, or high-bandwidth environments.
• Experience with MBSE practices, SysML, and model-based traceability.
• Ability to collaborate with UI/UX designers and software teams to translate mission needs into display functionality.
• Understanding of operator workflows and human-systems considerations in interface design.
• Strong communication for cross-disciplinary collaboration.
• U.S. Citizenship with ability to obtain/maintain DoD security clearance (active preferred).

Responsabilidades

• Capture and refine stakeholder needs from end users, subject matter experts, and mission stakeholders.
• Develop system-level and subsystem-level requirements for user interfaces, visualizations, alerting behavior, data-flow awareness, and operator workflows.
• Define operational user interface concepts, display behaviors, and functional flows that align with mission use cases and radar system behavior.
• Develop architectures and system-to-system interfaces for user-facing components.
• Define data flows needed between operator-facing interfaces and system hardware and software components.
• Ensure alignment of operator workstation designs with site space and power requirements.
• Ensure user interfaces meet mission-assurance, cybersecurity, accessibility, and reliability standards applicable to DoD environments.
• Support the creation of a digital engineering baseline.
• Use SysML to develop key engineering artifacts for user interface systems.
• Maintain traceability from stakeholder needs to system requirements to design elements.
• Maintain configuration control of display-system requirements, diagrams, and ICDs.
• Support system integration, verification, and test activities.
• Participate in system integration testing and mission-scenario validation.
• Evaluate display responsiveness, clarity, and operator usability during integration events.
• Collaborate across functional design teams: radar, signal processing, system architects, UI/UX designers, backend developers, operators, IV&T teams.
