  • Perform functional analysis, timeline analysis, requirements allocation, interface-definition studies, and detailed trade studies.
  • Support development and maintenance of system requirements, interfaces, specifications, technical baselines, and change-impact assessments.
  • Analyze test results, identify discrepancies, support root-cause investigations, and help drive closure of verification issues.
  • Apply model-based systems engineering practices to develop and maintain system architecture, behavior, interface, requirements, and verification models.
  • Conduct technical risk assessments and contribute to mitigation planning and technical decision-making.
  • Communicate systems engineering processes, verification status, technical issues, and recommendations with internal teams and, as needed, customers and external stakeholders.
  • Recommend practical enhancements to systems engineering, integration, verification, and test processes.
  • Provide guidance, coaching, or training to other employees within the assigned job area.
