Job description

Operations Management Innovation Traceability Communication Control Systems Workflow Management Systems Engineering Information Gathering Requirements Analysis Concept Of Operations Artificial Intelligence Requirements Management Requirements Engineering Engineering Design Process Verification And Validation Technical Performance Measure Model Based Systems Engineering, This Systems Engineer role focuses on generating clear, comprehensive process documentation across the core systems engineering lifecycle, including requirements, analysis, architecture, and verification and validation (V&V) and test. You will help define and document how complex aerospace systems are conceived, developed, integrated, and verified, ensuring that systems engineering principles and practices are captured in a structured, repeatable way., * Generate detailed process documentation covering the four key systems engineering areas: requirements, analysis, architecture, and verification and validation (V&V) and test.

  • Create structured process documentation drafts that clearly describe how systems engineering activities are performed and coordinated.
  • Perform verification and validation activities and accurately document the associated processes and outcomes.
  • Support requirements management by documenting how requirements are captured, analyzed, traced, and maintained throughout the project lifecycle.
  • Develop and maintain documentation related to concepts of operations (CONOPS), ensuring system behavior and operational scenarios are clearly defined.
  • Document interface control processes and create or update interface control documents (ICDs) that describe system and subsystem interactions.
  • Capture and formalize systems engineering principles and practices, including SEMP, V&V test processes, requirements management, TPM, ICD development, architecture definition, MBSE practices, trace studies, and CONOPS.
  • Analyze how work is performed from a systems perspective within the aerospace environment and translate that understanding into clear, usable process documents.
  • Collaborate with engineering teams to understand existing workflows, tools, and methodologies and reflect them accurately in process documentation.
  • Use tools such as DOORS and Jama to support requirements and systems documentation activities., Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI): We may use Artificial Intelligence (AI) to support parts of our hiring process, including sourcing, screening, and evaluating candidates. AI helps assess applications and qualifications, but final decisions are made by our hiring team. By applying, you acknowledge and agree that your application may be reviewed using AI tools.

Requirements

  • Strong experience with requirements engineering, including requirements definition, analysis, and management.
  • Hands-on experience with verification and validation (V&V) processes and test documentation in a systems engineering context.
  • Proven ability to create comprehensive, clear, and structured process documentation for complex technical systems.
  • Experience in aerospace systems engineering, with familiarity with industry practices and standards.
  • Solid understanding of systems engineering principles, including Systems Engineering Management Plan (SEMP), V&V test processes, requirements management, Technical Performance Measures (TPM), interface control documents (ICD), architecture definition, Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE), trace studies, and concepts of operations (CONOPS).
  • Ability to document systems engineering processes in a way that is accessible and usable for engineering teams and stakeholders.
  • Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering or a closely related engineering discipline.
  • Experience using requirements management tools such as DOORS and Jama.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

  • Experience working on aerospace or complex systems programs, with an understanding of how systems engineering is applied in practice.
  • Familiarity with developing and maintaining CONOPS documentation for complex systems.
  • Experience creating and managing interface control documents (ICDs) that define system and subsystem interfaces.
  • Knowledge of Technical Performance Measures (TPM) and how they are used to monitor and control system performance.
  • Exposure to MBSE approaches and tools, and the ability to reflect MBSE workflows in process documentation.
  • Ability to perform trace studies and document traceability across requirements, design, implementation, and test.
  • Strong written communication skills, with the ability to translate technical concepts and workflows into clear, concise documentation.
  • Collaborative mindset and ability to work closely with multiple engineering disciplines to gather information and validate documented processes., Individual compensation offered for this position within this range will depend on many factors, including qualifications, skills, relevant experience, job knowledge, geographic location, internal equity, and other pertinent job-related factors.
