(GA-ASI), an affiliate of General Atomics, is a world leader in proven, reliable remotely piloted aircraft and tactical reconnaissance radars, as well as advanced high-resolution surveillance systems.Under general directions with limited review, this position is responsible for applying innovative approaches to resolving unusual or complex engineering problems in the development of Army unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), with a focus on data modeling, software architecture, design, and requirements management for Ground Command and Control (C2) software. Assignments are normally outlined in terms of overall objectives and reviewed largely at completion. Initiates the planning of engineering projects and develops innovative designs or modifications in order to meet project goals. Independently performs difficult/complex engineering work with instructions as to the general expected results. Documents findings, communicates results to engineering staff, makes technical presentations, and may represent the organization as the prime technical contact on small contracts or single component projects. Provides direction to design or technical staff and may lead a team of moderately experienced professional staff.\nDUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:\nProvide Systems Engineering support across various programs as needed, which may include Avionics, Aerospace, Airborne Payloads, Command and Control Systems, training systems, throughout the design, development, integration, and test phases of the product life-cycle.\nUse a SysML tool, like Cameo, to produce system models which include developing the standard 9 diagrams of activity, block definition, internal block, package, parametric, requirement, sequence, state machine and use cases.\nCollaborate with program and all levels of engineering to develop SysML diagrams and artifacts in an MBSE environment, capture and characterize requirements, conduct parametric analysis, and create test plans and procedures including environmental testing.\nSupport the development of system requirements and specifications, interface control documents (ICD), requirements verification traceability matrix (RVTM), and other system engineering artifacts.\nPerform integration and test activities such as developing verification test plans, procedures, and test reports, as well as preparing and conducting the actual verification tests.\nUse the requirements management tool DOORS/JAMA to perform requirements development, analysis, and decomposition across system, segment, subsystem, and assembly levels.\nMay support multiple integrated product teams (IPT) through system analysis, assembly, integration, and testing.\nSupport the preparation and execution of program milestone reviews such as system requirements review (SRR), system functional review (SFR), preliminary & critical design review (PDR, CDR), test readiness review (TRR), and customer acceptance review (AR).\nDevelop systems engineering documentation, artifacts, and contract deliverables with oversight from Project Engineer, Chief Engineer, and Program Manager\nSupport requirement verification and documentation using MBSE models and/or DOORS/JAMA to link requirements and model elements to test plans, procedures, test results/reports, and other artifacts.\nInterface with customers during program shaping, ConOps development, and requirements derivation activities.\nProvide direction and/or feedback to design or technical staff.\nDevise new approaches to resolve unusual or complex engineering problems.\nMaintain the strict confidentiality of sensitive information.\nPerform other duties as assigned.\nResponsible for observing all laws, regulations and other applicable obligations wherever and whenever business is conducted on behalf of the Company. Expected to work in a safe manner in accordance with established operating procedures and practices.\nWe recognize and appreciate the value and contributions of individuals with diverse backgrounds and experiences and welcome all qualified individuals to apply.\nWe recognize and appreciate the value and contributions of individuals with diverse backgrounds and experiences and welcome all qualified individuals to apply.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4224,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Energy & Utilities","Science & Engineering","Nuclear Energy","Nuclear Engineering"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-26T02:43:42Z"},{"event":"close","at":"2026-10-26T02:46:18Z"},{"event":"reopen","at":"2026-10-26T06:46:15Z"},{"event":"close","at":"2026-10-27T02:21:00Z"},{"event":"reopen","at":"2026-10-27T06:33:26Z"},{"event":"close","at":"2026-10-27T11:03:48Z"},{"event":"reopen","at":"2026-10-27T15:32:13Z"},{"event":"close","at":"2026-10-29T03:33:47Z"},{"event":"reopen","at":"2026-10-29T07:50:28Z"},{"event":"close","at":"2026-11-03T00:36:06Z"},{"event":"reopen","at":"2026-11-03T04:35:24Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"US","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"H-1B filings in 12 months: 1","filings_12m":1,"filings_prev_12m":1,"green_card_filings_12m":0,"median_offered_wage_usd":102500,"route":null,"cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-29T16:27:21+00:00","sources":["US Department of Labor: LCA disclosure data (H-1B, H-1B1, E-3)"],"filings_for_role_12m":0}],"liveness":{"score":26,"band":"fade","label":"Fading","p_open":1,"p_active":0.599,"p_room":0.44,"age_days":41,"expected_fill_days":32,"reasons":["conf:0","velocity","win:tail","crowd:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-11-05T05:54:30Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/general-atomics-systems-engineer-3","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/general-atomics-systems-engineer-3.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-05T11:33:40Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":14741,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-06T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":1782979},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=1782979"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fgeneral-atomics-systems-engineer-3"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fgeneral-atomics-systems-engineer-3"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fgeneral-atomics-systems-engineer-3"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/general-atomics-systems-engineer-3\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fgeneral-atomics-systems-engineer-3"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3257230}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"ga.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3257230},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
