What You'll Do Define and manage the end-to-end mission systems architecture, built for WOSA and MOSA compliance, including the interchangeable payload interface. Integrate sensor payloads (AESA radar, IRST, EW), weapon interface suites, secure datalinks, and tactical AI autonomy kernels so the mission executes at machine speed. Work with AI/ML software teams to integrate tactical autonomy for sensor fusion, automated target recognition (ATR), target tracking, a
