The Project / Systems Engineer will own the technical and programmatic execution of complex, multi-discipline programs from award through fielding - including full-flight simulators, Joint Fires trainers, and Synthetic Training Environments. This role sits at the intersection of systems engineering, program management, and customer engagement, and requires someone equally comfortable authoring an ICD, leading a CDR, troubleshooting an integration issue on-site, and presenting status to a Government customer. The position includes OCONUS deployment to program sites as required by program schedule., * Serves as the technical lead on one or more assigned programs - owning the systems engineering baseline, managing requirements traceability, and ensuring all technical deliverables meet contractual and performance specifications. * Leads or supports design reviews and milestone events: SRR, PDR, CDR, TRR, CVT, GAT, and OSAT - preparing technical briefings, chairing working groups, and resolving discrepancies with the Government customer. * Develops and maintains key program artifacts: Systems Requirements Specifications (SRS), Interface Control Documents (ICD), Software Development Plans (SDP), Test Plans, CDRLs, and configuration management documentation. * Supports FMS program execution - coordinating export/import compliance (ITAR/EAR, 22 CFR 126.6), interfacing with freight forwarders, managing in-country installation and acceptance, and supporting DSCA/SAO relationships where applicable. * Coordinates multi-discipline integration across software, hardware, visual systems, and Government-furnished equipment (GFE/GFP) - identifying interface risks early and driving resolution before they affect program milestones. * Supports OTA and prototype program execution - translating capability drop definitions and PI objectives into systems-level requirements, participating in Agile Release Train ceremonies, and maintaining bidirectional traceability between backlog items and contract deliverables. * Develops and maintains the Integrated Master Schedule (IMS); identifies dependencies, critical path risks, and resource conflicts; reports schedule performance and earned value status to the PM and customer. * Serves as the primary technical POC for Government counterparts (CO, COR, APM, test teams) - providing written and verbal status, coordinating site access, and managing discrepancy documentation through resolution. * Supports proposal and capture activities: authors or reviews SOW sections, prepares BOEs, develops staffing plans, and contributes to technical volumes for new FMS cases, OTA submissions, and competitive bids. * Deploys to customer sites and program locations as required - including OCONUS locations - to support installation, integration, test events, Government acceptance, and fielding milestones., Fidelity Technology Services LLC is an equal opportunity organization.
