FED
95, LLC, a Waseyabek Development Company subsidiary, is a Native American-owned 8(a) small business providing systems engineering, integration, and fielding support to U.S. Department of Defense customers. FED
95 holds an active SECRET facility clearance and has past performance supporting Army and Navy IT, cybersecurity, and systems integration programs.

The EVSA Chief Engineer is the technical authority for validating Government-furnished EVSA technical data, overseeing integration of camera and mounting hardware onto ground combat vehicles, and ensuring the fielded configuration meets functional, safety, and interface requirements. This role bridges Government-furnished engineering data and the physical, fielded system; confirming fit, resolving configuration gaps, and supporting hands-on integration and pilot validation activities.

• Review and validate Government-furnished technical data (design, interfaces, qualification data) for applicability to the specific vehicle configuration(s) being fielded.
• Provide engineering oversight of sub-contractors and material suppliers’ mounting/bracket design and fabrication.
• Oversee sourcing and integration of camera hardware, cable assemblies, and other FED
  95-procured components.
• Lead or support fit-check and integration activities, including any prototype or CONUS pilot installation events.
• Identify and resolve configuration gaps between the Government-furnished baseline and actual fielded vehicles, escalating to Government engineering authorities as needed rather than independently redesigning the system.
• Support residual cybersecurity coordination confirming the fielded configuration's security posture remains valid.
• Support production readiness reviews and quality verification of fielded kits.
• Document engineering findings, as-built configuration, and any design adjustments required for production.

• Bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, systems engineering, or related field.
• 5+ years of engineering experience in defense, ground vehicle, or systems integration programs.
• Hands-on experience with mechanical/electrical integration, fit-check, or prototype validation work.
• Ability to read, interpret, and validate technical data packages, interface control documents, and specifications.
• Willingness to travel internationally, for trips of up to several weeks.

• Experience with Army combat or tactical vehicle platforms.
• Camera, sensor, or electro-optical systems integration experience.
• Experience working with Government-furnished technical data packages and configuration management.
• Familiarity with MIL-STD-810 (environmental) and MIL-STD-461 (EMI/EMC) considerations.
