Thank you for your interest in BAE Systems! This opening is for candidates who are interested in interviewing at our November 2026 Aerospace & Mission Systems (AMS) Engineering Hiring Event. If your background and skill set match our hiring needs, we will reach out with next steps. If selected for an interview, specific opportunities based on your interests and skill set will be discussed with the hiring team. For candidates not local to the Cedar Rapids area, virtual interviews will be accommodated. At BAE Systems, our engineers develop the world’s most critical electronics, delivering life-saving capabilities that protect pilots in contested airspace and provide precision navigation to soldiers on the ground. We are seeking a skilled Systems Engineer to join a high-impact team dedicated to advancing the next generation of military GPS and Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) solutions across the weapons, airborne, and ground domains. In this role, you will be a key technical contributor in the development of next-generation navigation solutions. You will apply systems engineering rigor to ensure our products are technologically superior, reliable, and developed through a disciplined process that ensures mission success in the most challenging environments. You will operate across the full Systems Engineering V-Model-from initial concept and architecture to integration and qualification. This role requires a professional who can translate high-level operational requirements into detailed technical specifications for real-time embedded systems, ensuring that every requirement is traceable, verifiable, and aligned with customer needs. Roles and Responsibilities Systems Development: Analyze, decompose, and derive system-level requirements into detailed software, hardware, and interface specifications. Process Execution: Follow and support a disciplined product development process, ensuring high-quality engineering artifacts and robust configuration management. Architecture & Design: Contribute to the architectural design of real-time embedded GPS receivers, focusing on performance, reliability, and seamless integration into complex GPS receiver platforms. Verification & Validation: Develop system test plans, procedures, and reports. Execute system integration and verification activities in a lab environment to validate that the product meets all performance and operational requirements. Digital Engineering: Utilize Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) techniques to improve requirements traceability, system modeling, and design communication. Technical Collaboration: Partner with cross-functional teams-including software, RF, and hardware engineers-to resolve complex technical challenges and perform trade studies. Professional Growth: Collaborate with and provide guidance to associate engineers, sharing best practices in systems engineering. Customer Engagement: Assist in the preparation and delivering technical presentations to internal leadership and external government/military customers. Because this role requires a balance of collaborative team integration and independent technical analysis, it will be performed in a hybrid work format (minimum 50% onsite).
