The role initially supports new product development by establishing clear stakeholder needs, requirements, architecture, interfaces, system behavior, and verification planning, with progressive application to project execution and asset management. This position independently leads priority work and helps build practical, reusable systems engineering capability.\nFunctions\nESSENTIAL\nSystems Engineering Leadership: Independently lead systems engineering activities for complex, multidisciplinary programs, initially supporting NPD and progressively expanding into project execution and asset management.\n\nNeeds and Operational Definition: Facilitate the definition of stakeholder needs, system context and boundaries, operating environments, Concept of Operations, use cases, and operational scenarios.\n\nRequirements Development and Management: Develop and maintain requirements, requirements allocation, the controlled baseline, and traceability throughout the supported product lifecycle. Coordinate technical content and approvals with project stakeholders and designated technical owners.\n\nArchitecture, Behavior, and Interfaces: Develop and maintain functional, logical, and physical architectures, functional decompositions, FFBDs, system block diagrams, behavioral models, and interface control documents, including system-level software functions, data flows, dependencies, and hardware-software interactions.\n\nBaseline and Change Control: Serve as the authorized custodian of the controlled requirements baseline and associated systems-engineering artifacts. Coordinate impact assessments and stakeholder reviews, implement approved changes, and maintain affected artifacts and traceability.\n\nVerification, Validation, and Compliance: Define verification methods and acceptance criteria, coordinate responsibilities, maintain requirements-to-evidence traceability, and track compliance and unresolved gaps. Technical disciplines retain ownership of their respective analyses, qualification activities, testing, and technical conclusions.\n\nSpecialty Engineering and Technical Assurance: Integrate reliability, safety, maintainability, cybersecurity, human factors, quality, and other specialty-engineering inputs into the system definition. Identify deficiencies and technical risks, recommend corrective actions, and escalate significant unresolved issues.\n\nProject and External Support: Support multiple projects based on business priority and technical risk, and participate in customer, supplier, and partner discussions involving requirements, architecture, interfaces, verification strategy, and acceptance criteria.\n\nCapability Building and Mentorship: Develop practical methods, templates, and guidance; apply structured requirements-management tools; review technical work; coach teams; and promote consistent systems-engineering practices.\n\nNON-ESSENTIAL\nOther duties as assigned.\n\nSupervisory Responsibilities\nThis position has no direct personnel-management responsibility. The role may lead systems engineering work and provide technical direction, coaching, and oversight to project personnel and supporting resources.\n\nReporting Relationship\nThis position reports to the Sr. Reliability Engineering Manager.\n\n Qualifications\nREQUIRED\nMinimum of three (3) years of relevant engineering experience, including demonstrated application of systems engineering practices on complex products or programs.\n\nMinimum of three (3) years experience in requirements management, system architecture, interface management, traceability, integration, and verification and validation.\n\nMinimum of three (3) years experience with complex multidisciplinary systems integrating hardware, software, controls, electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, or other engineering domains.\n\nDemonstrated ability to independently lead concurrent technical assignments, facilitate cross-functional decisions, and communicate technical risks and recommended actions.\n\nAbility to travel periodically in support of global programs.\n\nDESIRED\nMaster’s degree in Systems Engineering or another relevant technical discipline.\n\nINCOSE CSEP, ESEP, or equivalent systems-engineering credential.\n\nExperience with Jama Connect or another structured requirements-management platform.\n\nExperience with MBSE, SysML, and systems-engineering artifacts such as ConOps, FFBDs, behavioral models, interface control documents, and verification matrices.\n\nExperience applying systems engineering across product development, execution, operations, maintenance, upgrades, obsolescence, or asset management.\n\nKnowledge, Skills, Abilities, and Other Characteristics\nStrong systems thinking and ability to connect stakeholder needs, architecture, interfaces, technical risks, verification evidence, and lifecycle outcomes.\n\nAbility to tailor systems-engineering rigor to project complexity, maturity, risk, and business need.\n\nEffective facilitator and communicator who can influence without direct authority.\n\nAbility to organize and maintain clear, controlled, and usable technical information throughout the product lifecycle.\n\nCommitment to quality, collaboration, continuous improvement, and sound engineering judgment.\n\nWorking Conditions\nThis position is considered OFFICE WORK which is characterized as follows.\nAlmost exclusively indoors during the day and occasionally at night.\n\nOccasional exposure to airborne dust in the workplace.\n\nWork surface is stable (flat).\n\nPhysical Activity/Requirements\nThe physical demands described here are representative of those that must be met by an employee to successfully perform the essential functions of this job.
