We empower our teams, contribute to our communities, and operate sustainable. Everything we do is built on a commitment to do the right thing for our customers, our people, and our community. Our Mission, Vision, and Values guide the way we do business.\nAre you ready for your next career challenge?\nLeidos Defense provides a diverse portfolio of systems, solutions, and services covering land, sea, air, space, and cyberspace for customers worldwide. Solutions for Defense include enterprise and mission IT, large-scale intelligence systems, command and control, geospatial and data analytics, cybersecurity, logistics, training, and intelligence analysis and operations support. Our team is solving the world’s toughest security challenges for customers with “can’t fail” missions.\nLeidos Defense is seeking a Systems Engineer to join the IFPC Inc 2 systems engineering team. The IFPC Inc 2 is a ground-based, mobile system that aims to combat cruise missiles and unmanned aircraft systems. As part of the Indirect Fire Protection Capability program (IFPC), the system protects and defends civilian and military infrastructure and bridges the gap between tactical short range air defense systems and our strategic systems.\nThis Systems Engineer will join a matrixed organization of systems engineers, model-based systems engineers, and specialty systems engineers. This systems engineer must have experience with developing systems engineering artifacts, including Requirements Specifications, Test Procedures, Test Reports, CONOPS, and Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) content. The Systems Engineer will use Cameo Systems Modeler and SysML to develop requirements specifications, system architecture content (bdd / ibd), and system behavioral content (act / stm). This position does not necessarily require an MBSE Subject Matter Expert, but the role does minimally require experience working independently on MBSE models, some model customization, and the ability to communicate with non-Systems Engineering stakeholders who are less familiar with MBSE approaches.\nSpecific roles and responsibilities include:\nDevelop and manage the IFPC verification process & strategy\n\nStand up a verification review board\n\nOwn system level DVOs and VCNs\n\nReview and approve all DVOs and VCNs at the subsystem and below level including software\n\nPresent metrics and status to SE lead and leadership weekly\n\nPlan verification priorities and manage a verification burndown against multiple configurations\n\nEnsure requirements are verifiable\n\nManage the linkages between verification artifacts and requirements such as test procedures and analysis results\n\nWork to define success criteria\n\nWork a path towards addressing verification gaps\n\nOwn the system level VCRM\n\nMentor team in writing good verification artifacts\n\nManage verification artifacts against multiple system configurations\n\nThe Systems Engineer will work in a matrixed organization, which supports multiple programs at once in a variety of engineering fields with all different team environments. When the program ends, the Systems Engineer will have the opportunity to support a different program in the matrixed engineering portfolio. A candidate with experience in other systems engineering areas such as Model-Based Systems Engineering, Human Factors Engineering, Risk Management, and Reliability Analysis will be treated preferentially. However, a strong background in traditional systems engineering and technical leadership is what is required for this position.\nBasic Qualifications\nBachelor’s degree in Systems Engineering, Software Engineering, Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or equivalent degree from an ABET-accredited university with 8+ years of experience or an MS with 6+ years.\n\nExperience in deriving requirements for complex electrical, electro-mechanical, mechanical, and software systems.\n\nPosition requires candidates to be capable of performing in a collaborative engineering environment working closely with multi-disciplinary teams.\n\nDemonstrated experience effectively communicating within a team environment.\n\nResident of the North Alabama area or willing to relocate to the Huntsville - North Alabama, AL area.\n\nUS Citizenship is required with active secret clearance or ability to obtain and maintain a secret clearance.\n\nPreferred Qualifications\nPreference shown to candidates who possess a Master of Science in System Engineering from an ABET-accredited university, and/or have at least 2-4 years of direct systems engineering experience.\nPreferred candidates will also have experience and/or working knowledge with:\nMagicDraw and/or other Model Based System Engineering (MBSE) modeling tools\n\nDemonstrated experience effectively leading a team of engineers.\n\nDemonstrated experience accurately estimating the engineering effort (i.e. hours) associated with Systems Engineering tasks.\n\nDOORS and/or other requirements database tools\n\nUnderstanding of the DoD acquisition processes and methods\n\nExperience supporting one or more DoD programs\n\nObject Management Group (OMG) Certified System Modeler Professional (OCSMP) certification\n\nINCOSE Systems Engineering Professional (SEP) certification (ASEP or CSEP)\n\nIf you're looking for comfort, keep scrolling.
