- Decompose top-level requirements into actionable subsystem and component-level requirements, supporting both hardware and software teams.
- Execute system integration and testing, validating system behavior, identifying discrepancies, and supporting root-cause analysis.
- Perform systems-level troubleshooting and debugging during validation and test phases, collaborating with multidisciplinary engineering teams.
- Utilize MATLAB for modeling, simulation, and data analysis to evaluate system performance and support design decisions.
- Apply strong Linux knowledge to support integration, testing, scripting, and system-level diagnostics.
- Document test procedures, verification results, analysis findings, and technical recommendations in a clear and structured format.
- Participate in technical reviews, requirement walkthroughs, and design discussions to ensure system reliability, safety, and compliance.
- Support continuous improvement of tools, processes, and methodologies related to requirements analysis, integration, and test., This position offers a stable, long-term engineering environment supporting mission-critical defense programs. Engineers benefit from:
- PTO flexibility
- A 9/80 schedule with every other Friday off
- A collaborative, multidisciplinary engineering culture
- Exposure to advanced systems across mission assurance, command and control, displays, and weapons control product lines
Work is primarily desk-based, with periodic visits to laboratory environments for integration and testing activities. Job Type & Location
