Job Description

Salary: $113,000 - 153,000 per year Requirements:

• We require a bachelors degree in Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering, or a closely related engineering discipline, or equivalent experience.
• We look for 10+ years of experience developing, deriving, and allocating layered systems engineering requirements in avionics applications and LRU environments.
• We need a broad working understanding of avionics development disciplines, including systems engineering, hardware, firmware, software, integration, testing, bid and proposal work, CONOPS, qualification, certification, system safety, FMEA, and lab operations.
• We expect experience creating CONOPS and system/LRU architectures, along with basic to intermediate experience with Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE).
• A valid and clear drivers license is required.
• We need candidates who are willing to travel.

• We develop system-level and LRU architectures for complex aerospace electronics programs.
• We lead the creation of CONOPS, requirements definition, requirements allocation, and test planning.
• We guide multidisciplinary engineering teams building hardware, firmware, software, and AI/ML solutions for flight-worthy avionics, mission LRUs, and payload hardware.
• We work directly with clients to define system requirements and design architectures that align with expectations.
• We provide technical leadership across each program from concept through execution.
• We use MBSE methods to support system design and architectural development.
• We support technical marketing efforts, proposal development for embedded systems, and product and technology roadmap planning.
• We serve as the system engineer for embedded avionics and aerospace programs.
• We lead integrated development, integration, and test efforts across electrical, mechanical, firmware, software, and AI/ML disciplines.
• We meet with internal and external customers to refine technical requirements and prepare specification and architecture documents.
• We lead trade studies across relevant engineering domains.
• We work with stakeholders to allocate functions to subsystems and translate those allocations into actionable requirements for engineering, design, development, integration, and test teams.
