Essential Functions:
• Lead and support system-level design activities for software-intensive components, including defining behavior, data flows, and interfaces
• Conduct technical analysis to assess design options, recognize potential risks, and enable informed decisions
• Translate system requirements into logical architecture, algorithmic approaches, and implementable software designs
• Support integration efforts by analyzing system interactions, resolving interface issues, and ensuring end-to-end functionality
• Conduct trade studies and design evaluations to assess alternative solutions and recommend optimal approaches
• Collaborate closely with software, systems, and integration teams to ensure design alignment, effective implementation, and operational readiness, emphasizing teamwork and technical coordination.
• Develop and maintain technical documentation, including design descriptions, interface definitions, and analysis results
• Support verification and validation planning by defining expected system behavior and performance criteria
• Participate in Agile team activities, providing technical guidance during planning, design reviews, and execution
Basic Qualifications:
Please list your current security clearance and IAT or relevant certifications on your resume, if applicable.
• A Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Systems Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, or a related field from an accredited university, along with 5 years of experience; or a Master’s degree in a related field with 3 years of relevant work experience; or 9 years of relevant work experience may be considered as an alternative to a degree
• Applicants must hold an active in-scope DoD-issued Secret security clearance at the time of application, which is essential for employment consideration and starting the role
• Experience applying systems engineering principles to the design and analysis of complex systems
• Ability to interpret requirements and drive them into practical, well-reasoned design solutions
• Experience working in integrated teams across systems, software, and specialty engineering disciplines
• Familiarity with systems engineering artifacts such as requirements, interface definitions, use cases, and architecture descriptions
• Strong analytical thinking and problem-solving skills
• Experience in systems engineering, software systems engineering, or related technical field
• Experience with engineering and collaboration tools such as Git, JIRA, Confluence, and standard development environments
• Ability to understand and evaluate software implementations without requiring primary responsibility for coding
• Understanding of system integration challenges, data flows, and interface control
Preferred Qualifications:
• Experience with algorithms, analysis, and design within command and control (C2) systems
• Strong background in system design, architecture, or technical analysis
• Experience working with algorithms, data processing, or performance-driven systems
• Experience with system integration and interface development
• Familiarity with software development environments (Unix/Linux, Windows)
• Experience conducting trade studies, design evaluations, or analysis of alternatives
• Experience working in Agile development environments
• Experience supporting large, distributed, or multi-team development efforts
• Experience in the Ballistic Missile Defense domain or closely related areas such as Air Defense, Radar Systems, Missile Systems, or Integrated Air and Missile Defense
• Experience with programs or systems such as C2BMC, GMD, Missile Defense Agency, THAAD, Aegis Combat System, or IBCS
• Familiarity with sensor management, track processing, engagement planning, or fire control concepts"
