System Engineer

• Innovating RF signal processing applications


• Facilitating the integration of new and legacy software across a variety of hardware form factors


• Analyzing user requirements, concept of operations documents, and high-level system architectures to develop system requirements specifications


• Deriving an understanding of stakeholder needs and essential system functions from system requirements


• Developing a system design solution that satisfies system requirements


• Participating in producing definitions of systems or components under development that provide common reference points for hardware and software developers


• Deriving lower-level requirements from higher-level allocated requirements that describe in detail the functions that a system component must fulfill


• Ensuring lower-level requirements are complete, correct, unique, unambiguous, realizable, and verifiable


• Participating in an Integrated Product Team to design new capabilities based upon evaluation of all necessary development and operational considerations


• Generating alternative system concepts, physical architectures, and design solutions, and suggest hardware upgrade to improve system performance


• Allocating real-time process budgets and error budgets to systems and subsystem components


• Participating in interface definition, design, and changes to the configuration between affected groups and individuals throughout the life cycle


• Producing written plans that define the methods, processes, and evaluation criteria by which the systems, subsystems, and work products are verified against their requirements


• Participating in the development of system engineering documentation, such as System Engineering Plans, Initial Capabilities Documents, Requirement Specification, and Interface Control Documents


• Developing derived requirements for Information Assurance Services (Confidentiality, Integrity, Non-repudiation, and Availability), Basic Information Assurance Mechanisms (e.g., Identification, Authentication, Access Control, Accountability), and Security Mechanism Technology (passwords, cryptography, discretionary access control, mandatory access control, hashing, key management, etc.)


• Reviewing and providing input to program and contract Work Breakdown Structure (WBS), work packages, and the Integrated Master Plan (IMP)
