Original job description

Job Title: Senior Systems Engineer Electromagnetic & Space SystemsJob DescriptionThis Senior Systems Engineer role focuses on the design, development, and integration of first-of-a-kind electromagnetic and electric power generation systems, with a strong emphasis on spacecraft payloads, small satellites, and advanced mission solutions for national security applications. You will exercise significant technical autonomy, define system-level objectives, and lead complex engineering efforts that deliver innovative, highly functional solutions in extremely constrained environments for defense and intelligence customers.

Responsibilities

Formulate long-term plans for the development, documentation, and deployment of engineering solutions, ensuring alignment with compliance, reporting, and safety standards.
Determine technical objectives and system-level approaches to solve advanced engineering problems across spacecraft payloads, small satellites, and related mission systems.
Evaluate the integration of engineering solutions within the broader engineering environment and ensure that documentation, testing, maintenance, and updates are thoroughly completed.
Guide the development and implementation of engineering solutions, including defining deployment strategies, resource requirements, integration plans, testing approaches, and compliance measures.
Plan and coordinate ongoing maintenance of engineering solutions, including documentation, reporting, publishing technical materials, and delivering presentations to internal and external stakeholders.
Communicate effectively with engineering professionals, solution users, and management throughout the solution development lifecycle to ensure technical clarity and alignment.
Represent the organization as a prime technical contact on contracts and projects, interfacing with Senior external personnel on technical matters that require coordination between organizations.
Participate in, and at times lead, the development of new business opportunities or the expansion of existing programs by contributing technical insight and solution strategies.
Function in an advisory or project leadership role, providing direction, guidance, and mentorship to less experienced professional staff and multidisciplinary engineering teams.
Plan for future applications and enhancements of existing solutions by monitoring and incorporating new developments in engineering technology and space systems.
Maintain strict confidentiality of sensitive and classified information associated with national security and government programs.
Ensure all work adheres to applicable laws, regulations, and organizational obligations, and consistently work in a safe manner in accordance with established operating procedures and practices.
Perform additional engineering and technical duties as assigned to support evolving program and mission needs.

Essential Skills

Bachelors degree, masters degree, or PhD in engineering or a related technical discipline from an accredited institution, or equivalent engineering experience in lieu of formal education.
Progressive engineering experience typically consisting of twelve or more years with a bachelors degree, ten or more years with a masters degree, or seven or more years with a PhD.
Detailed and extensive technical expertise in engineering principles, concepts, theory, and practice, with demonstrated ability to organize, plan, schedule, conduct, and coordinate workloads to meet established deadlines and milestones.
Real-world experience with system architecture, including defining and documenting system-level designs and interfaces.
Hands-on experience with requirements tracking, including developing, managing, and verifying system requirements throughout the lifecycle.
Experience developing and tracking system budgets, including performance, power, mass, and other resource allocations at the system level.
Proven ability to perform system-level analyses in support of trade studies and mission design decisions.
Extensive experience with orbital dynamics, attitude control systems, and orbital visualization tools used in spacecraft modeling and mission analysis.
Strong understanding of principles for spacecraft design, build, test, and operation, including end-to-end lifecycle considerations.
Experience with CONOPS (Concept of Operations) design and mission modeling for space or mission-critical systems.
Strong communication, presentation, and interpersonal skills that enable effective collaboration with other departments, customers, government representatives, and professionals at all levels.
Ability to represent the organization as a prime technical contact, communicating complex technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Demonstrated capability to provide leadership and guidance to less experienced professionals and contribute to project leadership activities.
Ability to quickly understand new concepts and apply them accurately in an evolving technical and operational environment.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

Experience working on spacecraft payload and system development, particularly in environments requiring very large functionality in small, power-constrained platforms such as small satellites.
Background in unique system development, ground control and operational software development, and embedded software development for mission-critical applications.
Exposure to unique cyber capabilities and security-focused engineering solutions for national security programs.
Experience collaborating with defense and intelligence community customers and familiarity with their mission environments and expectations.
Demonstrated business development participation, including contributing to proposals, customer briefings, and expansion of existing programs.
Ability to develop innovative designs and solutions for advanced technical challenges in the national security arena.
Strong leadership presence with the ability to interface effectively with all levels of management, professional and support staff, customers, potential customers, and government personnel.
Commitment to maintaining confidentiality and handling sensitive information with discretion and professionalism.
