Systems Engineer

The Systems Engineer will focus on Integration and Testing (I&T) activities for a maritime program, ensuring that mission-critical, medium-power 1000-volt products operate with complete reliability to protect the lives of military personnel. The role involves formal verification and validation, system integration, and the creation and support of key engineering artifacts such as architectural drawings, design specifications, implementation instructions, test procedures, and test reports. Responsibilities

• Perform formal verification and validation activities to ensure systems meet all functional and performance requirements.
• Lead and execute system integration and testing (I&T) for maritime program systems and related components.
• Develop, execute, and maintain detailed test procedures for system integration and verification activities.
• Document test results clearly and accurately in comprehensive test reports.
• Support the creation and refinement of architectural drawings and system design specifications.
• Provide clear implementation instructions to guide development and integration efforts.
• Utilize oscilloscopes, multimeters, and data acquisition systems to conduct integration and test activities on medium-power, 1000-volt products.
• Apply integration testing methodologies to validate system behavior under real-world operating conditions.
• Collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams in an Agile environment to resolve issues discovered during integration and testing.
• Use requirements management tools to trace requirements through design, implementation, and test artifacts.
• Contribute to continuous improvement of integration and test processes, tools, and documentation.
• Support mission-critical, safety-critical system development with a strong focus on reliability and quality.
