Job Description
The successful candidate will have knowledge of all aspects of missile systems engineering in support of DoD missile systems programs. This role involves overseeing the management, auditing, and validation of embedded software rather than hands-on coding. You will work closely with hardware engineers to evaluate the impact of software changes on hardware systems.
Specific knowledge and experience with AEGIS combat systems and missile systems is a plus. The candidate must have a minimum of 5 years of experience in engineering design, development, test, and process management to include change control boards, engineering reviews, and ensuring design changes are fully qualified and compliant with engineering principles. Knowledge of systems engineering principles, best practices, agile development, and project management of missile systems development is highly desirable. Specific knowledge of the Standard Missile and Navy weapon systems is highly desirable. Travel potential to 25% of time.
