About the company
This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Senior System Engineer - Integration & Verification based in United States.
Responsibilities
- Develop Test Plans, Test Procedures, and Test Cases for the integration and verification of mission autonomy subsystems with the broader autonomous flight system.
- Produce detailed Test Reports and Problem Reports documenting verification results, findings, failures, and corrective actions.
- Establish and maintain traceability between system and subsystem requirements, test cases, and test procedures.
- Ensure test planning and verification deliverables are completed in alignment with program schedules and are ready to support each phase of system development.
- Assess test strategies and evaluate whether available test facilities, equipment, and capabilities adequately support planned subsystem verification activities.
- Review system and subsystem requirements from a testability perspective, identifying gaps, ambiguities, or inconsistencies and providing actionable feedback.
- Ensure test facilities are appropriately configured and compliant for formal integration and verification activities.
- Support the integration and verification of flight autonomy subsystems on the air vehicle platform.
- Contribute to systems engineering development plans, processes, and technical execution activities as needed.
- Coordinate systems engineering tasks across disciplines and help ensure technical deliverables are completed successfully and on schedule.
- Develop subsystem feature and function descriptions, subsystem-level requirements, test methods, and testing strategies.
- Support verification and validation activities, including change control and impact analysis for test cases and procedures.
- Review systems engineering artifacts, concepts of operation, system architectures, interfaces, and requirements with internal teams, customers, suppliers, and regulatory stakeholders as appropriate.
- Collaborate with safety, hardware, and software engineering teams to capture, document, validate, and communicate requirements and interfaces.
- Support the development of autonomous behaviors and functions for AI-enabled control systems while maintaining safety and verification considerations throughout the development lifecycle.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Systems Engineering, or a related discipline; a master’s degree is preferred.
- 6–9 years of experience conducting systems engineering and integration and verification activities.
- Demonstrated experience integrating and testing flight control systems, ideally involving machine learning, autonomy, or advanced automated control capabilities.
- Strong experience developing integration and verification strategies, test plans, test procedures, and test cases for complex systems or subsystems.
- Experience troubleshooting integration and verification issues, identifying root causes, and driving appropriate resolution.
- Experience with requirements management tools, processes, traceability, and requirements validation and verification.
- Ability to develop and validate requirements for test facilities, system architecture, interfaces, and verification activities.
- Experience collaborating effectively across multiple engineering disciplines, including software, hardware, safety, systems, and related technical teams.
- Strong understanding of systems engineering principles and the ability to work across architecture, requirements, interfaces, testing, and verification activities.
- Experience working on experimental R&D or new product development involving safety-critical systems and the ability to maintain rigorous safety standards while operating in a fast-moving environment.
- Experience supporting FAA, EASA, or Department of Defense certification programs is preferred.
- Hands-on experience with avionics integration and verification using standards such as ARP4754A and RTCA DO-178B/C is highly desirable.
- Experience with automatic flight controls, flight management systems, display systems, software requirements, or software verification is a plus.
- Familiarity with FAA, EASA, or Department of Defense regulations and standards is beneficial.
- Working knowledge of Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) is a plus.
- Familiarity with tools such as Simulink, Cameo, IADS, or Jama is desirable.
- Strong communication, collaboration, problem-solving, and technical documentation skills.
- Ability to work independently, take ownership of significant technical areas, and collaborate effectively in a small, agile engineering environment.
- Must be authorized to work in the United States without current or future visa sponsorship; visa sponsorship and transfers are not available for this position.
Conditions
- Remote position within the United States, with a preference for candidates
