Project/Unit Description The Electronic Systems Lifecycle (ESL) Division conducts research and engineering support spanning the full lifecycle of a broad range of electronic systems. Operating primarily in support of Robins Air Force Base (AFB) in Warner Robins, Georgia, ESL specializes in advancing Electronic Warfare (EW) and related technologies. The division's expertise covers a wide spectrum of activities, including system prototyping, technology insertion, systems and facility modernization, Test and Evaluation (T&E), cybersecurity engineering, and comprehensive system analysis. ESL plays a vital role in the development and enhancement of both emerging and fielded systems and platforms. Job Purpose The Systems Engineer oversees and coordinates the work of technical teams on systems projects, ensuring the successful design, implementation, operation, and technical management of those projects. Taking a holistic approach to systems engineering, the Systems Engineer ensures that all aspects of a system project are considered and addressed. The Systems Engineer works closely with stakeholders to understand their needs and then develops and documents technical requirements that meet those needs. The Systems Engineer leads the design team in developing a system architecture that meets all of the requirements. After the system is designed, the Systems Engineer oversees the implementation of the system, working with the implementation team to ensure that it meets all of the requirements. Once the system is deployed, the Systems Engineer manages the technical aspects of the system, including monitoring performance, troubleshooting problems, and making improvements. Key Responsibilities Manage all technical aspects of product or system design including directing multiple lab resources for large scale product or system deployments Manage sub-contractor resources supporting all system engineering areas (definition, requirements analysis, 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 Validate security control configurations on systems and ensure all systems are configured with proper controls, such as STIGS, CMMC, and other similar requirements Collaborate with sponsors and other key stakeholders to derive tasks from detailed requirements, and provide tasking to other team members based off of the derived tasks Additional Responsibilities Perform electrical, RF, and/or mechanical hardware design Develop novel technical approaches to support the Department of Defense (DoD) system life cycle Work closely with customers, subject matter experts, and project teams Provide on-site support and troubleshooting of software and hardware systems Work on and test with physical electronic hardware systems Perform other duties as assigned Required Minimum Qualifications Experience leading system design, development, and testing Active secret security clearance Experience leading an engineering team Preferred Qualifications Active Top Secret Clearance Experience with computer automated design tools (AutoCAD, SolidWorks, etc.) Experience with RF test hardware (spectrum analyzers, signal generators, etc.) Experience with electrical power and control systems Experience with project management Experience in business development Proficiency in Microsoft Office products (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) Travel Requirements
