About The Position

The Embedded Integration Systems Engineer is responsible for defining, developing, and maintaining the architecture and models of subsystem packages that contain embedded hardware, circuitware, and software elements. This role ensures that each package meets its functional, performance, and interface requirements while providing clear insight into how the embedded components operate within the larger system. The engineer partners with cross‑functional teams to manage package‑level configuration, interface development, and performance metrics.

Requirements

Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related STEM field.
Minimum 5 years of experience in systems integration, test & evaluation, or hardware prototyping for aerospace/defense programs.
Active Secret clearance or recently held Secret clearance.
Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. DoD Top Secret clearance (or higher).
Strong written and verbal communication skills; proficiency preparing technical documentation, test plans, and review packages.
Ability to work in classified environments.
Ability to work onsite full time.

Nice To Haves

Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related STEM field.
Hands‑on experience with brass‑board/PCB prototyping and rapid‑hardware development.
Proficiency in configuration‑management tools (e.g., CM2, JIRA, DOORS, or similar).
Familiarity with missile/weapon system integration testing
Experience drafting and baselining test‑objective documents (CDRLs).
Ability to develop and execute integration test program plans (vol. 1/2) for complex weapon systems.
Knowledge of EGSE/ESE test‑console environments and ATR integration.
Understanding of Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) design and implementation.
Experience with VCRM (Verification, Configuration, Requirements Management) methodologies.
Familiarity with MIL‑STD‑498/IEEE‑828 or equivalent configuration‑management standards.
CAD/ECAD tools (Altium, Mentor, Cadence).
Modeling & simulation (MATLAB/Simulink, ANSYS).

Responsibilities

Develop and maintain package‑level architecture models (functional, logical, and physical) for embedded hardware‑software integrations.
Produce and update functional/logical block diagrams, state‑mode charts, functional flows, sequence‑of‑event timelines, mission‑critical events, and Concept of Operations (ConOps) for each package.
Collaborate with systems, hardware, firmware, software, test, and program teams to gather, refine, and validate package functions.
Perform analyses to verify that package functional requirements align with package specifications and overall system objectives.
Own configuration management of package architecture models using Cameo Systems Modeler (or equivalent MBSE tool).
Ensure all architecture changes are documented, reviewed, and approved in accordance with configuration‑control processes.
Coordinate with the design and embedded‑software teams to keep architecture baselines synchronized with detailed design deliverables.
Lead development of functional and physical interface requirements at the package level, emphasizing embedded interfaces (e.g., data buses, memory maps, timing signals).
Support creation and maintenance of Interface Correlation Documents (IcDs) for the package and maintain traceability between interface requirements, architecture models, and downstream design artifacts.
Work with system‑level interface managers to resolve conflicts and ensure package interfaces remain coherent with the overall system architecture.
Define, develop, and maintain package‑specific Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that capture embedded performance metrics such as processing latency, power consumption, reliability, and mission‑critical timing.
Track KPI trends, generate status reports, and provide actionable insights to the system‑level KPI manager.
Ensure accurate roll‑up of package performance data to support system‑level performance assessments and decision‑making.
Proven ability to lead multi‑disciplinary review boards and mentor junior staff.
Demonstrated project‑management competence (schedule, risk, and deliverable tracking).
