Job DescriptionBAE Systems is currently seeking creative, innovative problem solvers to be part of a system security engineering focused group. In a modern approach to "Spy vs Spy," BAE Systems uses state-of-the-art technology, advanced mathematics, and physics in novel ways to protect our systems and provide our customers with capability that endures. Our engineers design solutions that achieve the optimum balance between product capability and defense-in-depth security. They apply all the lessons learned to our model-based design approach and frequently advance security state-of-the-art. They take their creative and innovative spirit to the extreme by playing the part of adversary through their identification of attack vectors. They propose countermeasures that provide the greatest protection at the best value for the system's entire lifecycle.
Our Software and Systems Engineers do a lot of amazing things, and for these opportunities may include the following;- Design and implement security architectures on complex processors based on requirements from your analysis of adversary threats and proposed countermeasures.
- Implement and test embedded software according to the guidance provided by the U.S. Government
- Work with Security State of the Art (S-SOTA) technologies.
- Provide our customers with sophisticated, defense-in-depth security solutions.
- Work with NIST cryptographic algorithms
Please note: Depending on the role, it will involve developing embedded software for security solutions on embedded processors and requires a bachelor's degree plus 4 or more years of work experience,or understanding systems engineering techniques and processes.
Because of the need for consistent, in-person collaboration and/or the requirement to perform all work onsite due to the nature of this particular role, it will be performed full-time on site. This means work will be conducted on location at a BA
This position will be posted for at least 5 calendar days. The posting will remain active until the position is filled, or a qualified pool of candidates is identified.
