At Adaptic, our Systems Engineers don't just support systems-they design, integrate, and evolve the architectures that power mission success. Working across the DoD and Intelligence Community, you'll help bring complex capabilities to life from concept through deployment. Whether you're early in your career or leading system architecture and integration efforts, we're looking for Systems Engineers at all levels who enjoy solving complex problems, working across disciplines, and building systems that matter. _Your Impact _ You'll work across the full systems engineering lifecycle-requirements, design, integration, testing, and deployment-supporting solutions that operate at scale in high-stakes environments. Day-to-day, that can look like: + Analyzing user needs, CONOPS, and system architectures to define and refine system requirements + Translating requirements into scalable system designs and technical solutions + Supporting or leading system design, development, and integration efforts + Guiding trade-off decisions across hardware, software, and architecture components + Integrating COTS/GOTS solutions into complex, end-to-end systems + Developing system architecture artifacts (e.g., diagrams, data flows, interface definitions) + Supporting system integration, test planning, and validation activities + Contributing to system engineering documentation (e.g., requirements, design, test plans) + Collaborating with software engineers, system administrators, and mission stakeholders + Identifying risks, resolving technical issues, and supporting system performance improvements + Supporting deployment activities and providing technical guidance to operators and users + Engaging with government stakeholders and program leadership on technical decisions and system evolution ## Related Videos - [Model Based Systems Engineering in an Agile Product Development Process](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/68-model-based-systems-engineering-in-an-agile-product-development-process) - [From DevOps to Scaled DevOps: How We’re Rebuilding Continuous Delivery as a Platform](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100018-from-devops-to-scaled-devops-how-we-re-rebuilding-continuous-delivery-as-a-platform) - [Python-Based Data Streaming Pipelines Within Minutes](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1233-python-based-data-streaming-pipelines-within-minutes) - [Flexibility is Key: Unlocking the Advantages of Versatile Software Solutions for Strategic Innovatio](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1943-flexibility-is-key-unlocking-the-advantages-of-versatile-software-solutions-for-strategic-innovatio) - [Demystifying DevOps—Pros, cons, dos & don'ts](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/338-demystifying-devops-pros-cons-dos-don-ts) - [Security Pitfalls for Software Engineers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/726-security-pitfalls-for-software-engineers) ## Related Articles - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated) - [Where To Find Software Engineering Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/396-where-to-find-software-engineering-jobs) - [The 12 Best Jobs for Software Engineers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/401-the-12-best-jobs-for-software-engineers) - [Best Paying Jobs in Technology](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/256-best-paying-jobs-in-technology) - [What is Software Engineering?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/289-what-is-software-engineering) - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs)
