System Engineer Required Duties:
• Lead and support complex interface definition across software, cyber, hardware, and other subsystems, ensuring consistency with the system architecture and requirements.
• Help prepare, organize, and attend government design reviews (e.g., CDR-like events), including building technical content, traceability views, and interface/MBSE views suitable for senior Government stakeholders.
• Drive TBD/TBR burndown, including coordinating with multi-discipline owners, tracking to closure in JIRA, and maintaining clear documentation.
• Develop and maintain MBSE models in Cameo, capturing system behaviors, interfaces, and allocations that feed into downstream design, I&T, and verification.
• Support requirements development and documentation, including updates to specifications, interface control documents (ICDs), and SE artifacts.
• Operate within an Agile, PI-based execution model, collaborating with feature teams and SE leadership to align stories, close out SE tasks, and manage pop-up/government-directed work.
• Partner closely with software and cybersecurity as primary collaborators, while also engaging with hardware, human factors, and safety engineers on cross-cutting issues.
• Contribute to planning for the transition from Development to Integration & Test, ensuring that interface definitions, requirements, and models are ready to support the next phase.

System Engineer Additional Requirements:
• Bachelor's degree in engineering/technical discipline from an accredited college in a related discipline, or equivalent experience/combined education.
• Candidate must have or be able to obtain and keep a DoD SECRET security clearance which means you must be a U.S. Citizen.
