Det-Tronics is a $200M global leader in industrial life safety, specializing in high-end flame and gas detection and automation control systems. As part of Spectrum Safety Solutions (1,700 employees across 20+ countries), we protect people and assets in mission-critical environments across oil & gas, clean energy, marine, and infrastructure. Backed by Sentinel Capital Partners, we are investing in innovation and growth across our portfolio.

As a Systems Engineer, you will help develop system requirements and architectures for new product development and sustaining projects. Working alongside experienced engineers, you will translate customer and product needs into clear technical requirements and support verification and validation activities. You will collaborate with electrical, software/firmware, mechanical, and test engineers while building your technical expertise and taking on greater responsibility as you grow.

• Develop and manage requirements, with clear rationale, for systems that include hardware, software/firmware, and mechanical components, with guidance from experienced engineers.
• Contribute to system architecture development and document supporting simulations and analyses.
• Support systems engineering activities for new and existing products across the product lifecycle.
• Contribute to concept generation and system and subsystem designs that support reliability, safety, manufacturability, and sustainability.
• Use requirements management tools to maintain traceability between requirements and verification and validation test cases, and work with the test team to confirm appropriate test coverage.
• Participate in risk analyses and help develop, implement, and verify risk mitigation measures.
• Track assigned engineering activities and communicate progress, risks, and results to the project team.
• Participate in cross-functional technical discussions and design reviews, presenting assigned work and incorporating feedback.
• Collaborate with project team members and follow established development procedures and documentation practices.
• Support assigned activities across product development and sustaining projects, with guidance on priorities.

• Bachelor’s degree in Systems Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related engineering discipline.
• 3+ years of professional engineering experience.
• 1+ year of hands‑on experience developing or managing requirements for electromechanical products.

• Experience contributing to a project involving embedded software or firmware.
• Familiarity with requirements and test case management tools such as DOORS, Jama, or Jira.
• Exposure to connected products and product cybersecurity concepts.
• Familiarity with embedded systems and microcontroller‑based products.
• Exposure to high‑hazard or regulated environments, such as industrial life safety (e.g., SIL
  2), hazardous‑location certification (ATEX/IECEx, FM, UL), aerospace, or medical devices.
• Ability to help translate customer and product needs into clear technical requirements and communicate them to electrical, software/firmware, and mechanical engineers.
• Ability to collaborate effectively, complete assigned work independently, and seek guidance when needed.
• Exposure to development lifecycle activities, including requirements definition, design, implementation, or testing.
