• 4+ years of relevant systems engineering experience, or an equivalent combination of education and professional experience.
• Demonstrated experience developing system and subsystem requirements and formal specifications, including SSS and/or SRS documentation.
• Experience working within a structured or formal systems engineering lifecycle.
• Hands-on experience with requirements management tools such as IBM DOORS or comparable platforms.
• Familiarity with Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) methodologies and systems modeling/design tools.
• Experience translating high-level user stories, operational needs, or customer requirements into detailed and testable technical requirements.
• Experience supporting requirements traceability, design decisions, system integration, and verification activities.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Demonstrated ability to lead or actively participate in Requirements Reviews, technical Working Groups, design discussions, and customer meetings.
• Ability to communicate effectively with software engineers, systems engineers, integration/test teams, program leadership, and external customers.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to work through complex technical and operational issues.
• Must meet applicable U.S. person requirements for the program and be able to obtain and maintain eligibility for a government security investigation and access to classified information, if required., * Experience supporting Flight Data Processing (FDP), Air Traffic Management (ATM), Air Traffic Control (ATC), or aviation/airspace modernization programs.
• Previous experience working with the FAA, NATS, an Air Navigation Service Provider (ANSP), or similar aviation organization.
• Familiarity with SAFe/Agile development methodologies, including Program Increment (PI) planning.
• Experience with configuration and document management platforms such as Windchill and SharePoint.
• Experience developing Computer-Human Interface (CHI) designs, workflows, prototypes, or mock-ups.
• Understanding of software development lifecycles and experience collaborating closely with software development, integration, and testing teams.
• Working knowledge of database design and analysis within application development environments.
• Experience supporting complex, highly available, safety- or mission-critical systems.
• Experience working with international customers or programs, particularly UK NATS or similar ANSP environments.
• Experience applying AI or machine-learning tools to systems engineering workflows, including requirements analysis, requirements quality review, documentation, automation, traceability, or process improvement., The ideal candidate is a hands-on Systems Engineer with strong requirements engineering experience who can operate effectively between the customer and technical development teams. This individual should be comfortable taking high-level operational needs and translating them into structured system/subsystem requirements, software requirements, use cases, models, and design artifacts. Experience with DOORS, MBSE, SSS/SRS development, requirements reviews, and customer-facing technical discussions will be particularly valuable. Experience within air traffic management, aviation, flight data processing, or another mission-critical systems environment would be a significant advantage.
