Job Title:

Systems Engineer

Job Description

The Systems Engineer will focus on Integration and Testing (I&T) for a maritime program, performing formal verification, formal validation, and system-level integration. The role includes developing and supporting architectural drawings, design specifications, implementation instructions, test procedures, and test reports for a medium-power 1000-volt product used in mission-critical, safety-critical applications.

Responsibilities

+ Perform integration and testing activities for complex maritime systems, ensuring reliable performance in mission-critical environments.

+ Conduct formal verification and formal validation of system requirements and designs.

+ Execute system integration tasks, including hardware and software integration, to confirm end-to-end functionality.

+ Develop, document, and maintain detailed test procedures for system integration and verification activities.

+ Prepare clear and comprehensive test reports that capture test results, issues, and recommendations.

+ Support the creation and maintenance of architectural drawings and system design specifications.

+ Produce implementation instructions that guide the deployment and configuration of system components.

+ Utilize integration and test equipment such as oscilloscopes, multimeters, and data acquisition systems to perform measurements and diagnostics.

+ Apply Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) practices, including the use of SysML and MBSE tools, to support system design and analysis.

+ Work within an agile methodology framework to plan, execute, and iterate on integration and test activities.

+ Collaborate closely with cross-functional engineering teams to resolve integration issues and improve system reliability.

+ Contribute to the continuous improvement of integration and test processes, tools, and documentation to support safety-critical product development.

Essential Skills

+ Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics, or a closely related technical field.

+ 4-8 years of related experience in systems engineering, system integration, and test.

+ Hands-on experience with system integration and test for complex technical systems, preferably in a defense or safety-critical environment.

+ Proficiency in integration testing, including planning, executing, and documenting test procedures and test reporting.

+ Experience performing formal verification and validation of system requirements and designs.

+ Working knowledge of DOORS or similar requirements management tools (preferred).

+ Understanding of Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) concepts and practices.

+ Familiarity with SysML for modeling system architectures and behaviors.

+ Ability to use integration and test equipment such as oscilloscopes, multimeters, and data acquisition systems.

+ Ability to work effectively in an agile methodology environment.

+ Eligibility to obtain a U.S. security clearance.

+ Citizenship status that meets eligibility requirements for a U.S. security clearance.

Additional

Skills & Qualifications

+ Experience in the defense industry or with mission-critical, safety-critical systems.

+ Working knowledge of MBSE tools such as Cameo or Magic Draw (preferred).

+ Familiarity with verification software tools and workflows.

+ Understanding of medium-power electronics and high-voltage systems, including products operating at approximately 1000 volts.

+ Exposure to components such as MOSFETs and related power electronics concepts.

+ Strong analytical and problem-solving skills for diagnosing integration and test issues.

+ Clear, concise technical writing skills for specifications, procedures, and reports.

Work Environment

You will join a recently formed team of approximately 14 Systems Engineers working on safety-critical, mission-critical products designed to be 100% reliable to protect the lives of military personnel. The environment is high-pressure and fast-paced, with a strong focus on quality, reliability, and rigorous testing. Engineers regularly use tools such as oscilloscopes, multimeters, and data acquisition systems, along with MBSE and requirements management tools like SysML, Cameo/Magic Draw, and DOORS.

The culture emphasizes collaboration, technical excellence, and adherence to disciplined engineering processes in a defense-oriented setting.
