You'll tackle complex engineering challenges, help resolve risks before they affect delivery, and guide teammates as they develop the models and engineering products that support mission success.

What You'll Do:

 * Create, integrate, and apply interdisciplinary digital models and systems engineering products from concept through the system lifecycle.
 * Develop and refine technical specifications, interface definitions, and system architectures for an integrated MEO space and ground system.
 * Apply your technical expertise to solve complex integration problems and guide system development.
 * Support design reviews, technical evaluations, and requirements verification through systems engineering and program management activities.
 * Identify and assess technical risks, develop practical recommendations, and work with government stakeholders and our teammates to implement solutions.
 * Translate engineering analyses into clear technical reports and recommendations that support program decisions.
 * Mentor and supervise team members on systems engineering tasks, including digital model development.

Due to the nature of work performed within this facility, U.S. citizenship is required., The position will require at least 2-3x per week on site. Meetings/schedules may require more days on site.
