About the position

The Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI) is seeking a Systems Engineer for the Applied Systems Laboratory (ASL) Air and Missile Defense Systems (AMDS) Division, located in Huntsville, Alabama. This position is focused on software-intensive systems and involves overseeing the concept development and design of software features for the integration of new or upgraded capabilities and components, such as sensors and weapons, into the Army Integrated Air and Missile Defense (AIAMD) architecture. GTRI, a nonprofit applied research division of the Georgia Institute of Technology, has a long-standing history of supporting government and industry through innovative research and development. The Systems Engineer will play a crucial role in ensuring the successful design, implementation, operation, and technical management of systems projects, taking a holistic approach to systems engineering. In this role, the Systems Engineer will work closely with stakeholders to understand their needs and develop technical requirements that meet those needs. They will lead the design team in creating a system architecture that fulfills all requirements and oversee the implementation of the system, ensuring compliance with technical specifications. Once deployed, the Systems Engineer will manage the technical aspects of the system, including performance monitoring, troubleshooting, and continuous improvement. This position requires a strong background in systems engineering, particularly in the context of air and missile defense systems, and the ability to coordinate and direct technical teams effectively. The ideal candidate will have extensive experience in managing complex systems projects, including directing lab resources for large-scale deployments and managing subcontractor resources across various engineering areas. They will also be responsible for developing technical reports and diagrams that detail system attributes, ensuring that all aspects of the system are documented and maintained according to established standards. The Systems Engineer will serve as a Subject Matter Expert (SME) for systems engineering tools and technologies, providing guidance and support to teams throughout the project lifecycle.

Responsibilities

  • Manage all technical aspects of product or system design and strategic architecture including directing multiple lab resources for large scale product or system deployments.
  • Manage sub-contractor resources supporting all system engineering areas (definition, requirements analysis, architecture roadmaps, synthesis, systems analysis and implementation).
  • Conduct product or system design synthesis translating requirements into physical architectures for systems of high complexity to include defining and refining internal and external interfaces.
  • Develop technical reports and diagrams detailing product or system attributes.
  • Direct teams to implement, document, and maintain the products' architecture roadmaps, designs, procedures, standards, and metrics, as well as ensure compliance and conformity of software architecture and technology standards.
  • Compile report input from other researchers and prepare final report deliverables.
  • Serve as a resource and Subject Matter Expert (SME) for systems engineering tools and technologies.
  • Support concept and feature development for integration of new or upgraded mission command capabilities, sensors, and weapons into the Army Integrated Air and Missile Defense (AIAMD) architecture using Agile methods.
  • Provide technical subject matter expertise for underlying mission command, sensor, and weapon technologies.
  • Utilize artifacts from previously developed concepts and current AIAMD architecture, requirements, and design to provide context and constrain concept and feature development.
  • Perform investigations and develop reports to determine modifications to the AIAMD system architecture, system requirements, software requirements, interfaces and software design to support implementation of features.
  • Collaborate with stakeholders to elaborate concepts and solicit feedback.
  • Perform analysis trades and develop algorithms to support implementation of features.
  • Develop verification criteria for implementation of features.
  • Author concepts, capabilities, and feature definition documents and support technical document reviews.
  • Support implementation and testing of features by development, test, and integration teams.
  • Lead planning meetings and working groups.

Requirements

  • At least 14 years of relevant full-time experience.
  • Experience in concept and feature Agile development methodologies and structured approaches to documentation.
  • Air and Missile Defense experience and knowledge of command and control, sensor, and weapon technologies.
  • Coordination, organization, teaming and communication abilities.

Nice-to-haves

  • Active Secret Clearance.
  • Experience with Army Integrated Battle Command System (IBCS) Software and the AIAMD system of systems architecture.
  • Experience with AIAMD radar and missile systems and integration.
  • Experience with configuration management and requirements management systems such as DOORS, JIRA, MKS or ClearCase.
  • Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) experience and utilization of Magic Draw or Cameo tool suite.
  • Experience leading working groups, tiger teams, cross functional teams.
