The selected candidate will work closely with numerous engineering teams supporting the Strategic Systems Programs Office to drive the execution of systems engineering, integration, and test activities related to ongoing sustainment and future design iterations of the Strategic Systems Program.
The selected individual will work closely with SSP Government and industry partners to transform legacy systems engineering, integration, and test capabilities into model-based systems engineering methodologies that enable SSP to continue to be the DoD's premier Weapon System Integrator (WSI). The selected candidate will be responsible for:
Our organization has supported the U.S. Navy's Strategic Systems Programs (SSP) continually since the program's inception in the 1950s. SSP developed the first sea-based, underwater-launched Strategic Weapon System (SWS), a defense system that is truly critical to our national security. For more than six decades, SSP has maintained and upgraded this weapon system and we have been there every step of the way. The sea-based SWS is the ultimate stealthy weapon system and as the first leg of the U.S. nuclear triad. With over 70% of our nation's nuclear arsenal its importance to maintaining world peace cannot be overstated. The development of Columbia, the most advanced nuclear-powered, nuclear-armed submarine ever designed, as well the next D5LE2 weapon system is under way and will begin to be rolled out over the next decade. The Navy projects this system to be operational through 2084, meaning the program will have a total life span of more than 120 years. This is a truly unique program and BAE Systems employees on this program understand they are part of an important legacy.
As a decades long sole source partner on multiple contracts on behalf of our customer, our program has remarkable stability and is concurrently experiencing significant growth.
