Job DescriptionJoin our team as a Systems Engineer in FAST Labs Engineering
As a key member of our team, you will have the opportunity to work on cutting-edge RF or EO/IR projects, collaborating with others to design, develop, and implement innovative mission solutions. The successful candidate will be an integral of our team by delivering innovative, technical contributions on a range of programs through activities such as system architecting, design, and documentation leveraging digital processes. The successful candidate will also have the opportunity to apply their DE domain knowledge for test planning activities, system integration & test, qualification testing, and test execution in a field deployment environment. Key responsibilities may include:
- Architecting, designing, and documenting early lifecycle, RF/EW/Cyber systems and associated capabilities through DE best practices
- Working with multi-disciplinary, cross-functional teams to ensure successful system integration
- Ownership technical products that are key for system development success
- Participation in product integration and verification
- Developing test and verification strategies that help minimize program cost and technical risk
- Defining test and verification methods, events, and constraints for all system requirements
- Collaborating with customer and internal program leadership to coordinate, schedule, and ensure readiness to perform test events
Because of the need for consistent, in-person collaboration and secure access to sensitive information, this role will be performed
full-time on site. This means work will be conducted on location at a BAE Systems facility 100% of the time.
