Requirements
  • BS/MS in Network Engineer, Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or related field
  • 5+ years of previous work on systems architecture of commercial drones or UAVs or equivalent relevant experience driving complex system of systems integration
  • Previous work on JSIG and associated network security requirements
  • Leadership experience working with large teams for complex systems
  • Strong communication skills
  • Proven experience prototyping and fielding complex systems with multiple external stakeholders
  • Rapid system requirement derivation, system development, and system val/ver experience
  • Must Possess and maintain U.S. Secret Security Clearance
Responsibilities
  • Work with the program director, principal engineer, and customer to distill a CONOP and identify leading drivers of success
  • Define the architecture topology that best meets the CONOP and understand key trades that are made through simulation and/or exploratory prototyping techniques. This includes but is not limited to developing accurate models to direct design of various vehicle subsystems (e.g, sensing, compute, communications, data storage, network security at scale, etc.)
  • Select components and subsystems for a complex community of group 5 UAVs that will meet the balance of cost, schedule, and performance of a rapid prototyping effort with a fast-approaching deadline
  • Prioritize and develop clear engineering strategies and accompanied resource plans. This is achieved by creating meaningful abstraction between sub-systems to guide engineering development efforts at scale and speed
  • Develop an architecture plan with MOSA, OMS, and UCI in mind ensuring compliance with Open Systems Architecture standards
  • Ensure system design will meet software assurance requirements and account for JSIG risk management framework
  • Create and carry out a validation plan for the end-to-end system
