Job description

Work Arrangement: Fully Onsite (Full-Time Permanent)

Summary:

We are seeking a Systems Integration and Test (I&T) Engineer to support the integration, verification, validation, and testing of complex hardware and software systems supporting advanced defense and national security programs. This position offers the opportunity to work on multidisciplinary System-of-Systems (SoS) capabilities involving autonomy, RF communications, unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs), small unmanned aircraft systems (sUAS), electronic warfare, munitions, and fuzing technologies. The successful candidate will support the full integration and test lifecycle, including test planning, system integration, test execution, instrumentation, anomaly resolution, test automation, data analysis, and formal technical reporting. Candidates must have hands‑on experience integrating and testing complex hardware/software systems, including test plan development, execution, troubleshooting, and reporting. Experience with RF communications, munitions, fuzes, and bench/field instrumentation is particularly important.

Key Responsibilities

1. Systems Integration and Test Lifecycle

• Support the complete integration and test lifecycle, including planning, integration, execution, anomaly resolution, and reporting.
• Support integration and testing of complex multi-subsystem System-of-Systems capabilities.
• Develop and execute test activities to demonstrate system functionality and operational performance.
• Identify, troubleshoot, and resolve hardware and software integration issues.

2. System-of-Systems Integration

• Support integration of dissimilar subsystems, including autonomy, RF communications, UGVs, sUAS, electronic warfare, munitions, and fuzing systems.
• Identify and resolve interface, timing, interoperability, and cross-subsystem integration issues.
• Work with multidisciplinary engineering teams and external vendors to achieve cohesive system functionality.

3. Verification and Validation (V&V)

• Support operational use cases and mission-thread-based verification campaigns.
• Develop verification scenarios that exercise end-to-end system behavior against the Concept of Operations (ConOps).
• Maintain formal traceability from system requirements through test execution and supporting evidence.
• Support validation activities and documentation for program reviews.

4. Test Planning and Procedure Development

• Support the development and execution of test plans and procedures.
• Work across integration, functional, scenario-based, environmental, acceptance, regression, and qualification testing.
• Establish measurable pass/fail criteria and document test results.
• Support test readiness reviews and formal test reporting.

5. Bench and Field Test Execution

• Plan, instrument, and execute laboratory and field tests.
• Use test equipment such as: Oscilloscopes, Spectrum analyzers, Signal generators, Data acquisition systems
• Support field test and range execution.
• Troubleshoot anomalies to the component level across electronic, mechanical, RF, and software assemblies.

6. Test Automation and Data Analysis

• Use Python scripting for test automation, data reduction, and post-test analysis.
• Support development of automated test sequences and data acquisition capabilities.
• Analyze test data and prepare technical findings and recommendations.
• Work with applicable test automation tools and frameworks.

7. Technical Documentation and Configuration Management

• Support the development and maintenance of:
• Interface Control Documents (ICDs)
• Test plans and procedures
• Maintain clear, accurate, and audit-ready engineering documentation.
• Support documentation required for government customer and milestone reviews.

8. Cross-Functional Collaboration and Reporting

• Support integration and test activities across cross-functional and multi-vendor teams.
• Work within an Agile engineering environment using Jira and Confluence.
• Support test readiness reviews, technical reports, and validation evidence.
• Communicate results and technical issues to program leadership and government customers.
