Vacancy expired!

This role requires an active Secret Clearance and will be onsite in Atlanta, Ga.Project/Unit DescriptionThe Avionics System Engineer in the Applied Systems Laboratory (ASL) Systems Integration Division (SID) supports system integration and software development projects for Department of Defense (DoD) manned and unmanned aircraft improvement programs. SID research military aircraft specializing in avionics, electronic warfare, autonomous systems, and tactical communication/datalink systems. The SID team's engineering roles include Applied Systems Engineering, Datalink Engineering, Embedded Software, Enterprise Software, Augmented/Virtual Reality, and Test Engineering.

Job PurposeAn Avionics Engineer defines and designs military avionics systems and systems-of-systems. This engineer designs hardware and software systems to perform functions such as navigation, communication, tactical data links, Electronic Warfare, and defensive countermeasures. Avionics Engineers' designs include integrating the avionics systems within the aircraft, aircraft-to-aircraft, and aircraft-to-ground. This type of engineer applies knowledge specific to aircraft such as safety (e.g. FAA standards), security, robustness, and performance. An Avionics Engineer analyzes laboratory and flight test data for functionality and performance. This engineer provides expertise and technical leadership to programs and sponsors to achieve overall goals through the full development life-cycle (requirements development to final delivery). Tools and methodologies used by an Avionics Engineer include Model Based System Engineering (MBSE), laboratory analysis hardware, software development environments, and Agile methodologies.

Key Responsibilities
  • Manage all technical aspects of a product or system design including directing multiple lab resources for a large-scale product or system deployments.
  • Manage sub-contractor resources supporting all system engineering areas (definition, requirements analysis, synthesis, systems analysis and implementation).
  • Conduct product or system design synthesis translating requirements into physical architectures for systems of high complexity.
  • Define/refine internal and external interfaces.
  • Support development of product strategy and execution.
  • Develop and review technical reports, specifications, test plans, memos, and diagrams detailing product or system attributes.
Required Minimum Qualifications
  • Experience developing/designing complex, software-intensive, military unmanned air systems (UAS) using system engineering processes and methodologies.
