Systems Engineer Integration Verification Validation

Job Description

Systems Engineer (Integration, Verification & Validation)

Pay: $120k-$160K DOE

We are seeking a Systems Engineer to support integration efforts for a mission‑critical payload program in Tucson, AZ. This role differs from traditional requirements‑focused systems engineering positions. Instead, we are looking for a candidate with strong experience in verification, integration & test, and validation (V&V)—with emphasis on the “right side” of the Systems Engineering V-model.

This position is ideally suited for a senior‑level engineer; however, candidates with mid‑level experience will be considered if they possess the right integration and V&V background.

• Support system integration activities across hardware, software, and payload subsystems
• Develop and execute verification and validation (V&V) plans, procedures, and test events
• Lead or support system‑level integration and test efforts
• Perform requirements verification through analysis, inspection, demonstration, and test
• Troubleshoot integration issues and coordinate resolution across cross‑functional teams
• Support test readiness reviews, integration readiness reviews, and technical interchange meetings
• Ensure system performance meets mission and program requirements
• Document test results, discrepancies, and corrective actions
• Collaborate with systems, software, hardware, and program teams to ensure successful system delivery

• Bachelor’s degree in Systems Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or related technical field
• Experience supporting system integration, verification, and validation activities
• Strong understanding of the Systems Engineering V-Model
  , particularly the integration and test phases
• Experience developing and executing test procedures and verification plans
• Ability to troubleshoot complex system‑level issues
• Strong communication and cross‑functional collaboration skills

• Senior‑level systems engineering experience
• Experience supporting payload programs or defense/aerospace systems
• Background in hardware/software integration environments
• Experience with formal test events and documentation processes
• Familiarity with requirements management and traceability tools (DOORS, Jama, etc.)

Senior Level Preferred, but candidates with the appropriate integration and V&V experience at a mid‑level will be considered.

MUST have valid driver’s license, reliable transportation, and MUST be able to pass drug and background checks.
