Northrop Grumman Space Systems – Launch and Missile Defense Systems has an exciting career opportunity for a Principal Engineer Systems – Global ART Lead Systems Engineer (24-448) to join our team of qualified, diverse individuals. This position will be at Schriever Space Force Base, Colorado Springs, CO.
Position Overview:
The Command and Control, Battle Management, and Communications Experimentation Laboratory (C2BMC X-Lab) is fast-paced and dynamic. The X-Lab is responsible for developing and integrating future-capability prototypes for the Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS), including Sensor/Weapon Integration, Algorithm Development, User Interface Development, and other critical leading-edge missile defense technologies.
The X-Lab needs to augment the team with a mid-level systems engineer to perform a disciplined system engineering approach to define, develop, and analyze integrating external elements' capability with C2BMC. This includes performing playback of data from launch events into C2BMC, analyzing the system performance, and cueing BMDS sensors. Participate in developing, executing, and analyzing the results of various prototype tests in a lab environment as needed. Non-standard work hours are highly likely during event execution, and a small amount of travel may be required.
Essential Functions:
Demonstrated experience in defining, developing, and integrating systems-of-systems
Demonstrated ability to analyze high-level needs and define a structured approach to refine the capability into an integrated set of requirements that led to a fielded product
Demonstrated ability to communicate effectively and clearly present technical approaches and findings
Experience in working on IRAD-type projects
Demonstrable skills in Full Cycle Systems Engineering of new capabilities
Capability and requirement derivation based on customer needs
System interface design & Interface Control Document development
Focus on and potentially lead the integration of the R&D systems into C2BMC
Assessment of how the C2BMC prototype system performs using state vectors and integrating source tracks
Apply results to identify and enhance C2BMC for future operations
The work location is the Missile Defense Integration and Operations Center (MDIOC) at Schriever SFB, Colorado
Basic Qualifications:
An active Secret clearance is required to start with the ability to obtain TS/SCI clearance
Bachelor’s Degree in a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics) discipline preferred from an accredited university and 5 years of related experience, or a Master’s degree and 3 years of experience, or a PhD and 1 years of experience.
Must have 1+ years of experience leading or contributing to an integrated team environment with other engineers
Must have experience with:
Use case
System requirements
Performance specification development
UML modeling
Must understand systems engineering processes and principles
Must be comfortable with rapidly changing requirements and tight deadlines
Knowledge base and skills required:
Operations Concept (OPSCON)
Concept of Operations (CONOPS) development
System and subsystem decomposition
Integration practices and methods
Analysis tool development using:
MATLAB
Excel
S-Code
Satellite Toolkit (STK)
Operating systems experience with:
Windows
&
Unix/Linux
Algorithm design and implementation
DoD Architecture Framework (DoDAF)
Theory and application of the BMDS
Theory and application of command and control systems
Theory and application of track correlation algorithms
Probability theory and optimal state estimation
