Responsibilities

Providing systems engineering and analysis support in the definition of technical performance measures used in test and evaluation, and for post-test data collection and analysis. Examples include but are not limited to subsystem or system level simulation evaluation, human-in-the-loop evaluation or field testing of multiple aircraft types, or representative avionics, mission computers, sensors, or weapons system.
Assisting in the development of modeling and simulation system environments, system architectures, and system verification plans for various R&D activities of the TDD-SID.
Generating substantiation documentation, designs, and drawings to support integration of candidate solutions onto U.S. Army aviation platforms. This work may be conducted independently or as a member of a larger team of designers and engineers. Substantiation packages must be in accordance with identified airworthiness requirements for particular aircraft platforms.
Electrical testing including Electromagnetic Compatibility/ Electromagnetic interference (EMC/EMI) support.
Performing EA of new systems, instrumentation, and organic airframes and its sub-systems. Developing multiple EA reports and flight test instrumentation plans for multiple aircraft projects. Producing EA reports suitable for airworthiness approval
Developing and executing Laboratory/bench test and testing.
Evaluating electrical systems and products by designing and conducting research programs applying knowledge of electricity and materials.
Confirming system and product specifications by designing feasibility and testing methods, testing properties.
Ensures system and product quality by evaluating testing methods; testing finished product and system capabilities; confirming fabrication, assembly, and installation processes. Performs engineering design evaluations.
Analyzing research and development plans and conducting research for system related information as directed.
Participating in design reviews, technical meetings, and briefings. Identifies potential risks and appropriate courses of action should technical issues arise, or user requirements change.
Traveling up to 25% in support of mission requirements in the form of site surveys, technical interchange meetings, training, testing support, and other critical tasks outside of the JBLE facilities. This includes assisting with equipment packing and movement as per mission requirements.
