This position is suited for mid- to advanced-career candidates and beyond. Please note, this position is contingent. Primary Responsibilities Technical Execution

* System Requirements Definition and Analysis:
Collaborate with stakeholders to define and analyze system requirements, ensuring alignment with space and ground system objectives

* MBSE Implementation:
Develop and maintain system models using MBSE tools (e.g., SysML) to capture system architecture, requirements, and design, enabling effective communication across teams

* Architecture Design:
Support the creation of system architectures, ensuring they are scalable, reliable, and meet program requirements for both space and ground systems

* System Integration Planning:
Develop integration plans for both space and ground systems, ensuring all subsystems work cohesively and meet mission objectives

* Verification and Validation (V&V):
Support the development of test plans and procedures, perform verification activities, and ensure the system meets performance and quality standards

* Risk Management:

Identify, assess, and manage system risks, ensuring mitigation strategies are developed and implemented for space and ground systems
