Systems Engineer Sr Staff - Clearance Required

Standard Job Description

WHAT WE'RE DOING

• Advancing the Integrated Discrimination and Electronic Protection capabilities of the Missile Defense System (MDS)
• Leading systems engineering trades, analysis, and studies related to requirements generation
• Developing and delivering MDS capabilities and engineering artifacts into the Technical Baseline (TBL)

THE WORK

The System Engineering & Integration Team (SE&IT) is seeking a Responsible Systems Engineer (RSE) to join the System Design and Requirements Capability team in Huntsville, AL. The successful candidate will lead cross-functional systems engineering teams to develop system level technical solutions for the Missile Defense Agency (MDA). The candidate will guide the development of system level architecture, requirements, and interfaces to influence incremental capability. The candidate will use Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) to evaluate architectural impacts through functional behavior analysis for the defeat of conventional and advanced Threat (i.e., ballistic, aero-maneuvering, hyper-glide, countermeasures, etc.) systems within the MDA mission areas. The RSE will use the MBSE environment collaborate to develop system-of-systems requirements via system/component trade studies and analysis and lead the development of Change Notices (CNs) to MDA's system specification including functional, interface and performance requirements, architectural models, interface definitions, and support Trace verification from System to Element level requirements. The RSE will develop and deliver products (i.e., technical briefings, CNs) to support internal and MDA stakeholder reviews.
