US - Sr Systems Engineer

Description:

** XXXX: XXXXXXXXXXX/hr

** 2 POSITIONS Hybrid

** MUST BE US CITIZEN

Please have your candidates answer the below questions on their resume:

1. Describe your experience using IBM ELM suite of tools and especially your experience with DOORS NG, Engineering Workflow Manager, and Engineerint Test Manager to support Requirements Based Engineering in an Aerospace application.

2. Describe your experience integrating ELM with other enterprise digital tools (e.g., CAMEO, Siemens PLM).

3. Describe your experience creating enterprise dashboards using ELM, Power BI, Tableau, or similar.

As a core member of our engineering and systems team, you will design, implement, and maintain the IBM ELM/Jazz platform to support safety-critical aerospace workflows and drive our Digital Thread initiative. You will support tool development for managing and tracking RBE activities, ensuring seamless compliance and end-to-end traceability from aircraft-level requirements through manufacturing, software, and hardware verification. You will act as the master architect connecting systems engineering data with broader enterprise engineering life cycles.

Key Responsibilities:

Digital Thread & Enterprise Integration

• Design, implement, and maintain integrations between IBM ELM and enterprise systems (e.g., PLM, CAD, ERP, MES) to form a unified Digital Thread.
• Build linked data pipelines across tools using OSLC (Open Services for Lifecycle Collaboration), REST APIs, and specialized middleware (e.g., IBM Engineering Lifecycle Optimization - Integration Adapter).
• Define data federation and synchronization strategies to ensure "single source of truth" visibility across the entire product lifecycle.
• Establish automated configuration management links between systems engineering data and physical product structures (e.g., As-Designed/As-Built BOMs).

ARP
4754 Compliance & Safety Management

• Align the IBM ELM platform workflow with ARP
  4754 guidelines for civil aircraft development.
• Map and track development assurance levels (DAL A through E) across all system architecture elements.
• Prepare automated traceability and verification matrices to support compliance audits and SOI reviews.

IBM ELM Platform Administration & Architecture

• Focal for the administration and configuration of the IBM ELM Suite (DOORS Next Gen, EWM, ETM, Rhapsody, GCM, and JTS).
• Configure project areas, access rights, permissions, and workflow templates.
• Troubleshoot system performance, resolve configuration conflicts, and maintain platform availability.

Workflow, Testing & Compliance

• Partner with Quality Assurance (QA) to align Engineering Test Management (ETM) with RBE workflows.
• Manage change requests, defect tracking, and sprint planning within Engineering Workflow Management (EWM).
• Ensure development and systems data comply with regulatory, industry, and security standards (e.g., ARP
  4754, DO-178C, DO-254).

Customization & Reporting

• Develop automation scripts, plugins, and integrations using REST APIs, OSLC, and JavaScript/Python.
• Design and maintain automated reporting templates and compliance dashboards (e.g., using IBM Engineering Lifecycle Optimization or BIRT).

Qualifications & Requirements

• Education: Bachelor's or Master's degree in Aerospace Engineering, Systems Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field.
• Experience: 5+ years in software/systems engineering tooling.
• Digital Thread Expertise: Proven track record of integrating IBM ELM with major PLM systems (such as Siemens Teamcenter, PTC Windchill, or Dassault 3
  
  DEXPERIENCE).
• Aerospace Expertise: Strong practical experience with ARP
  4754A/B frameworks, including interaction with DO-178C (software) and DO-254 (hardware).
• IBM ELM Mastery: Deep, hands-on expertise in the IBM ELM ecosystem. (Specific certifications like IBM Certified Specialist are a strong plus).
• Methodology Knowledge: Familiarity with Safety-Critical Lifecycle Management, Agile, SAFe, and Waterfall delivery models.
• Technical Skills: Experience with Requirements Based Engineering and Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE), OSLC integration, and scripting/automation.
• Soft Skills: Excellent cross-functional communication, documentation, and stakeholder management skills.
