BAE Systems is seeking a lead systems engineer with at least 6 years of engineering experience and at least 2 years of recent systems engineering specific experience in system design, system architecture, requirements management and cloud architectures to join a team environment on a distributed program.

The ideal candidate will be familiar with Agile backlog grooming of Epics and Features, Open System Architecture design principles, facilitating design TEMs across distributed teams, Cloud architectures and design for the cloud.
