Original job description

Job Title: Senior Systems Engineer Job DescriptionThe Senior Systems Engineer will provide technical leadership for the design, development, and optimization of advanced hypersonic test facilities, with a particular focus on wind tunnel systems. This role serves as a key technical interface between the engineering team, project management, subcontractors, and customers, and is responsible for defining the vision and framework for systems engineering execution across the program. The Senior Systems Engineer will drive the integration of Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) methodologies to improve performance, reliability, and safety, while coordinating multidisciplinary engineering activities and ensuring robust requirements, risk, and configuration management. This position is ideal for a systems engineering leader with deep domain expertise and a strong interest in hypersonic technologies.Responsibilities

Design, develop, and optimize of hypersonic test facilities, with an emphasis on wind tunnel systems.
Integrate advanced hypersonic testing methodologies, equipment, and systems into facility designs and operational concepts.
Collaborate closely with aerospace, mechanical, electrical, controls, and software engineers to ensure facilities meet all functional, performance, and operational requirements.
Identify, synthesize, and communicate technical risks throughout the project lifecycle, and translate these into project and financial risk implications for project managers, leadership, and end users.
Apply Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) methodologies to define, model, and simulate system architectures for hypersonic test facilities.
Manage integration of structural, mechanical, thermal, electrical, and other subsystems to ensure cohesive and high-performing test facility systems.
Use MBSE tools such as SysML and Cameo Systems Modeler to support system architecture definition, integration, and verification.
Establish and manage system configuration baselines, including clear processes for engineering change control across multiple design disciplines.
Develop and maintain system-level requirements, including traceability across the product development lifecycle using requirements management tools.
Prepare comprehensive technical reports, validation plans, and design documentation that comply with relevant standards and regulatory requirements.
Develop and manage key systems engineering program documents, including the Systems Engineering Management Plan, Interface Control Plan, Configuration Management Plan, Risk Management Plan, and System Verification Plan.
Maintain clear documentation of MBSE models, simulations, and test results to support design reviews, audits, and customer engagements.
Proactively identify and implement process improvements that enhance the performance, efficiency, and reliability of test facility design and operation.
Stay current with advances in hypersonic technologies, MBSE practices, and digital engineering tools, and incorporate relevant innovations into program execution.
Perform complex systems analyses and provide clear, actionable recommendations to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Mentor and support other engineers in systems engineering practices and related technical domains such as mechanical design, aerodynamics, testing, and analysis.
Support risk and opportunity management activities, including risk assessments and hazard analyses for hypersonic test facilities.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams using agile development processes and tools such as JIRA and Confluence.
Ensure systems engineering practices and documentation meet the expectations and requirements of government contracts and aerospace and defense standards.

Essential Skills

Bachelors degree in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Systems Engineering, or a closely related field.
8+ years of experience working with complex technical systems, including direct experience in systems engineering.
Demonstrated experience developing system architectures and guiding MBSE architectural decisions.
Hands-on experience with Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) methodologies and tools, such as SysML and Cameo Systems Modeler.
Experience with requirements development and requirements management across the systems engineering lifecycle.
Familiarity with requirements management tools such as JAMA, DOORS, or Cameo.
Experience with system configuration management, including facilitating the change process across multiple design disciplines from a defined configuration baseline.
Experience with risk and opportunity management, including risk assessments and hazard analysis.
Ability to perform complex systems analysis and provide clear, actionable recommendations to diverse stakeholders.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to present complex technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.
Experience with Systems Engineering on government contracts, particularly in aerospace and defense contexts.
Hands-on experience with test facilities such as wind tunnels, shock tubes, or combustion testing environments.
Experience conducting system performance evaluations and technical margin assessments.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

Advanced degree in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Systems Engineering, or a related field is preferred.
Experience with the full product development lifecycle in aerospace or defense systems.
aerospace engineering, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, or software engineering at the systems level.
Experience in related technical disciplines such as mechanical design, aerodynamics, testing, and analysis.
Familiarity with analytical tools used in complex problem solving, including computational fluid dynamics (CFD), finite element analysis (FEA), thermal analysis and management, and performance simulations.
Knowledge of control systems, instrumentation, and data acquisition systems used in test environments.
Experience with agile development processes and collaborative tools such as JIRA and Confluence.
Experience with Digital Engineering approaches in aerospace and defense environments.
Strong interest in hypersonic technologies and high-speed aerodynamics.
Demonstrated ability to mentor and train fellow engineers in systems engineering practices and related competencies.

Work EnvironmentThe role primarily operates in a hybrid office environment with significant cross-functional collaboration among aerospace, mechanical, electrical, controls, and software engineering teams. Work conditions and activities may vary depending on the phase of the product development lifecycle, ranging from conceptual design and digital engineering to integration, testing, and verification. While much of the work involves systems engineering, modeling, documentation, and coordination using digital tools and MBSE platforms, the position also requires time on site at hypersonic test facilities, including wind tunnels and related test infrastructure. The environment emphasizes innovation in high-speed aerodynamics, propulsion systems, and mission-critical components, and supports the full spectrum of hypersonic programs from research and development through flight testing. The culture encourages continuous learning, technical excellence, and collaborative problem-solving in a dynamic, fast-paced setting.Hybrid Work Schedule9/80 Work Schedule Job Type & LocationThis is a Contract to Hire position based out of Saint Paul, MN.
