Guided by our commitment to partnership, precision, and performance, we deliver the scalable solutions and technical excellence our customers depend on—today and into the future.

We are seeking an experienced Systems Engineer III to support systems engineering, architecture development, technical integration, acquisition lifecycle support, and capability delivery for complex Navy and DoW systems. This role contributes to System of Systems (SoS) requirements analysis, architecture development, software and hardware integration, cybersecurity risk tracking, technical documentation, and capability roadmap planning across RDT&E, fielded, and programmed environments. The candidate will work closely with chief engineers, program leadership, technical teams, cyber stakeholders, platform integration organizations, and operational users to ensure architectures, requirements, interfaces, risks, and technical decisions are clearly documented and aligned to mission objectives.

The role requires strong technical judgment, architecture awareness, cross-functional coordination, and the ability to support engineering execution across software, hardware, network, communications, and data environments.

This role requires in-person support.

Duties:

• Support systems engineering execution across complex Navy and DoW programs by coordinating requirements, interfaces, architecture products, integration dependencies, technical risks, and engineering activities across stakeholders.
• Apply systems engineering processes to support system and System of Systems requirements, design, analysis, verification, validation, sustainment, and acquisition lifecycle activities.
• Develop, monitor, and maintain as-is and to-be architectures for fielded and programmed capabilities by tracking systems, projects, interfaces, dependencies, data flows, and internal and external architecture changes.
• Support enterprise architecture development by coordinating architecture data, technical artifacts, architecture repositories, and integration with current engineering workflows and program documentation.
• Provide technical input to software architecture, requirements-driven design, test/behavior-driven development, system specifications, hardware/software compatibility, and platform working parameters.
• Support SoS integration and capability analysis by identifying risks, coordinating technical studies, assisting with architecture reviews, supporting design sessions, and providing recommendations for system redesigns, improvements, and future capability roadmaps.
• Support cybersecurity-informed architecture and acquisition activities by tracking cybersecurity implementation, cyber risk to mission, RMF considerations, security controls, cyber readiness, and architecture impacts across engineering, procurement, certification, and sustainment phases.
• Coordinate technical representation and integration activities with Navy platform organizations, program offices, change control boards, fleet stakeholders, and external organizations to support roadmaps, engineering changes, technical documentation, demonstrations, testing, and capability fielding.

Required

Education:

• Bachelor's Degree or Equivalent Experience

Required Experience:

• 10+ years of related experience.
• Experience serving as a systems engineer or supporting systems engineering activities for complex software, hardware, network, communications, or mission systems.
• Experience supporting architecture development, technical integration, requirements analysis, or related systems engineering processes.
• Understanding of software architecture, requirements-driven design, test-driven development, behavior-driven development, and system integration concepts.
• Experience tracking architectures, interfaces, dependencies, risks, requirements, technical changes, or integration activities across fielded, programmed, or developing systems.
• Ability to support System of Systems engineering activities, including requirements analysis, design coordination, integration planning, verification, validation, and sustainment support.
• Experience working with cross-functional technical teams, program stakeholders, cyber personnel, engineering leadership, and operational users in a dynamic program environment.
• Ability to develop, review, and maintain technical…
