## Description

* Identifying unique requirements from a broad customer base, flowing the requirements into design documentation, and working with a diverse team to build and test those requirements.
 * Work on the capabilities of current products, performance analyses, design information, and requirements verification methods.
 * Ensure logical and systematic conversion of customer or product requirements into total systems solutions that acknowledge technical, schedule, and cost constraints.
 * Perform functional analysis, timeline analysis, detail trade studies, requirements allocation.
 * Generate, review, and manage multiple requirements sets that cover all aspects of both performance and nonperformance including mechanical interfaces, electrical interfaces, data requirements, environmental requirements, and reliability.
 * Awareness and responsiveness to contract milestones and deliverables.
 * Work with an Agile team to ensure the designs are sufficient to meet the system requirements.
 * Work with various Agile teams to ensure all requirements are verified through inspection, analysis, demonstration, or test often by providing test and data reduction scripts.
 * Facilitate test directions to ensure production tests and troubleshooting tests are executed correctly and resulting data conforms to requirements.
 * Develop simulation models for sensors and systems.
