Northrop Grumman Space Systems-Launch and Missile Defense Systems offers an excellent opportunity for a Sr Principal Engineer Systems - Global SE Interface Engineer (25-467) to join our team of skilled and diverse professionals. This position, based in Colorado Springs, CO, or Huntsville, AL, plays a vital role in supporting the U.S. President, Secretary of Defense, and combatant commanders at strategic, regional, and operational levels.
This position does not offer relocation support and requires on-site work with no remote options.
Position Overview:
The Command and Control, Battle Management, and Communications (C2BMC) program is a vital part of the Missile Defense System. It provides a crucial operational platform that allows the U.S. president, the secretary of defense, and combatant commanders at strategic, regional, and tactical levels to systematically plan missile defense operations, monitor battle progress, and actively control networked sensors and weapon systems to achieve global and regional mission goals. C2BMC offers a layered missile defense capability, delivering an optimized response to threats across all ranges and flight phases. It functions as a force multiplier by connecting, integrating, and synchronizing autonomous sensor and weapon systems and operations both worldwide and locally to improve overall performance. Additionally, C2BMC is a key component of all ground and flight tests that verify and demonstrate the missile defense system's current and future capabilities.
The Interface Engineer will oversee the development of ICDs and IDDs. This involves establishing new interfaces between external components, including sensors, and other Command and Control Systems. The engineer will ensure that the ICDs and IDDs meet the appropriate standards required by the program. Additionally, the engineer is expected to develop various behavioral diagrams to understand and document requirements. The engineer will create detailed requirements in DOORS to ensure a clear understanding for the implementation teams. This position will be assigned to the C2BMC Systems Engineering Team within SEIT. An Interface Engineer is a Systems Engineer and will occasionally be called upon to support non-interface systems engineering activities.
