 * Experience with radar, RF, or defense systems is a plus

U.S. Citizenship required. This position requires an active DOD security clearance or the ability to obtain such clearance within a reasonable time after commencement of employment.

## Description

We're hiring a Level III Systems Integration Engineer to lead the integration of software, hardware, and network subsystems into complete radar systems. You'll take ownership of complex integration efforts - bringing together disparate components, resolving interface issues, and ensuring systems function seamlessly from the bench to the field.

What You'll Do

Integrate Systems

 * Lead the integration of software, hardware, and network components into functioning subsystems and full systems
 * Define and execute integration plans, procedures, and test protocols to verify interface compatibility and system-level performance
 * Identify, troubleshoot, and resolve integration defects across software, hardware, and network boundaries
 * Configure and validate networked system architectures, including data interfaces, protocols, and communications links
 * Debug integration issues spanning multiple disciplines, working closely with software, hardware, and systems engineering teams

Own Technical Delivery

 * Drive integration activities to completion on time and within budget
 * Analyze system and subsystem designs to identify integration risks early and recommend corrective action
 * Document integration architecture, interface specifications, and test results
 * Build and validate prototypes and test beds to retire integration risk ahead of full-system delivery
 * Provide budget, cost, and schedule input for integration assignments

What You'll Do

Collaborate & Mentor

 * Communicate clearly, in writing and verbally, with software, hardware, program management, and customer stakeholders
 * Mentor and coach less-experienced engineers on integration methods and troubleshooting techniques
 * Review customer specifications and requirements, and develop integration approaches that best support them, including cost as a design variable
 * Participate in proposal preparation for integration-related scope
 * Attend engineering, customer, and business meetings as required
 * Support, communicate, and reinforce the mission, values, and culture of the organization
