Delta Solutions & Strategies is seeking a Senior Test and Evaluation Engineer to join our team in support of the United States Space Force Space Training and Readiness Command (STARCOM) Test and Evaluation Squadrons (TES) at Schriever SFB in Colorado Springs, CO. This role is critical in ensuring the effectiveness and suitability of space systems through rigorous testing and evaluation processes. The ideal candidate will possess a deep understanding of the acquisition lifecycle and various phases of the test and evaluation process, particularly in the context of space systems. Strong candidates will have hands-on experience with contractor or developmental testing, operational testing, and live-fire testing, with a focus on evaluating both small subsystems and major system program results. Familiarity with major DoD acquisition programs as part of the Space Force acquisition process is also essential. In this position, you will assist in the planning, coordination, and execution of tests and experiments related to space systems. You will design, develop, and execute advanced test and experimentation programs to assess the performance of these systems. Utilizing optimal scientific and statistical tools, such as design of experiments, you will enhance test efficiency and produce actionable results. Your responsibilities will include creating and reviewing essential test engineering documentation, performing analysis on pre-test predictions, and ensuring that data management and analysis plans are effectively implemented to meet test objectives. As a Senior Test and Evaluation Engineer, you will also be responsible for executing simulations to predict system effectiveness under operational conditions, monitoring data gathering, and guiding the evaluation of test results. You will create comprehensive test reports and presentations based on complex data sets, and enhance data analysis tools to support ongoing evaluation efforts. This role requires a proactive approach to self-learning and staying current with the latest T&E and M&S tools and techniques, as well as a strong ability to break down complex systems into functional elements to determine applicable test objectives.
