Join the Space Vehicle Systems Engineering Telecommunications team at BAE Systems SMS - a group of motivated problem-solvers faced with the daily challenge of ensuring communications to and from space vehicles. We're excited about the projects we're involved in and have a commitment to the missions we enable. Offering growth opportunities at all levels of skill and experience, we're looking for leaders and innovators who can continue our reputation for creativity and technical excellence, while helping to define the future of BAE Systems SMS. We're seeking an independent, action-oriented technical lead to support telecom subsystem design, development, integration, and test throughout the lifecycle of space vehicle (SV) development for major programs. A telecom subsystem may be an entire communications payload or a subassembly to carry tracking, telemetry, command, and instrument data between a space vehicle and relays or ground stations. Make a difference. Love what you do. Realize your full potential. The Engineering, Science and Analysis (ESA) Strategic Capabilities Unit comprises the technical talent and organizational leadership that enables the successful delivery of high-impact discriminating technologies for our customers' missions. Our collaborative, cross-functional teams are committed to innovation, integrity, continual learning and strong execution.
