Systems Engineer

Noblis is working with FAA to manage large and complex telecommunications and information management programs that use state of the art technologies to deliver enterprise infrastructure services essential to the safe and efficient operation of the largest, safest, and most complex aviation system in the world. We are seeking smart, passionate, and motivated people to join our proven team in a challenging and rewarding work environment where you will be actively engaged at the intersection of technology and operations enhancing our nation’s aviation system.

If you want to be involved in acquiring, implementing, and managing the communications and information solutions to achieve our nation’s aviation vision, this is the job for you!

Enterprise Information Display System (E-IDS) is a new system under development that will provide a modern auxiliary information display to Air Traffic Controllers in the National Airspace System (NAS). E-IDS will consolidate several legacy IDS systems into a common platform to provide controllers with current and consistent information needed to perform air traffic operations from both local and enterprise sources. E-IDS will use a common hardware and software platform across over 400 NAS facilities, including En Route, Terminal, Tower, and Offshore domains.

Come and be a part of our dynamic team, where your contributions will not only advance the aviation industry but also contribute to a safer, more sustainable future in air travel.

The primary focus of this role is designing, building, and configuring information displays for Air Traffic Controllers using the E-IDS platform.

• ATC Display Development: Build and configure customized displays for Air Traffic Control users, including selecting, assigning, and arranging widgets based on operational needs.
• UI/UX: Apply user interface and user experience principles to develop intuitive, functional displays that support ATC operations.
• Widget Configuration and Data Integration: Utilize the E-IDS toolset to configure widgets, connect them to appropriate datasets, and ensure accurate presentation of operational information.
• ATC Domain Expertise: Demonstrate extensive knowledge of Air Traffic Control operations, workflows, and information requirements to understand what controllers need to see on their displays.
• E-IDS Modernization: Support the implementation of E-IDS, which will consolidate and replace five legacy information display systems with a modern, standardized platform.
