Title:
Systems Engineer - Expert
Systems Engineer - Expert
The Systems Engineer should be able to plan, implement, test, and document enterprise-wide solutions for total systems or subsystems using internally created and/or off the shelf products. This includes analyzing and identifying all or part of the customer's existing or new systems requirements, taking into consideration the special technology needs, and establishing functional and technical specifications and standards, solving interface problems, defining input/output parameters, ensuring integration of the entire system or subsystem, and effectively communicating opportunities, challenges, and risks.
This position also requires insight and experience in a wide range of RF systems engineering tasks and capabilities. These include but are not limited to terrestrial and SATCOM systems, RF wireless systems, and recent experience directly supporting Customers in a SETA role. An essential requirement for this individual is to use their experience to identify performance and capability gaps of existing systems and new systems in development. This position also requires strong interpersonal and team environment skills, as well as project management skills. Document preparation and the ability to communicate effectively in a dynamic and evolving mission environment are also needed.
Responsibilities:
Be a self-starter with leadership capabilities and execution of roles and responsibilities with little to no supervision.
Have strong decision-making skills, as well as the ability to organize and prioritize work.
Require minimal oversight to complete tasks in a timely manner.
Perform traditional Systems Engineering at the enterprise/strategic level within the context of the political landscape, operational restrictions, and changes, and interacting systems across the customer's organization.
Have practical understanding and experience in managing, overseeing, and integrating processes in both agile and waterfall development methodologies.
Provide project management support, development of requirements, project plans, schedules, and briefings, as well as present briefings at management level boards.
Have working knowledge of RF/Satellite communication systems.
Familiarity with long range communication, both terrestrial and SATCOM.
Be able to effectively communicate complex technical concepts/matters to non-technical audiences and stakeholders.
Have the ability to understand mission requirements/needs, and steer RF development and equipment configuration appropriately.
Participate in innovation activities to inform strategic plans for inclusion in enterprise roadmaps.
Minimum Qualifications:
Active TS/SCI security clearance with Poly required.
Experience/Degree: BS Degree with 10+ years or MS Degree with 8+ years relevant experience. May consider additional experience in lieu of degree.
Degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Physics or other relevant technical degree is preferred.
Experience with testing and/or operating RF equipment.
Experience within the Intelligence Community or DoD.
Experience working across organizational boundaries to collect and share information necessary to support mission objectives.
Ability to work in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.
Ability to influence others toward a common goal/decision.
Proficient with MS tools.
