About The Position

At ULA, success comes through the efforts of a strong, united team. As a ULA employee, you'll have the opportunity to grow in your career while working in a team-oriented culture that combines technology, innovation, ingenuity and a commitment to the extraordinary. The Factory System Engineering Integrator is part of a multi-disciplinary Systems Engineering Team in the Recurring Chief Engineer’s Office, responsible for driving rigorous systems engineering into ULA’s Vulcan Launch Vehicle Systems. This role involves embedded Decatur factory scope systems engineering support while operating as part of the larger systems engineering team more heavily centered in Denver. The position requires performing integration, ensuring that subsystems function together as an integrated system by managing tooling, facility, human, mechanical, propulsion, avionics, software, and analysis interfaces. It also involves supporting all systems engineering activities including requirements development and verification, failure mode analysis, test-like-you fly, risk/issue/opportunity management, trade studies, and gate reviews. The role supports all phases of total system product: concept, design, fabrication, test, installation, certification, operation, reuse, maintenance, and disposal. Applying appropriate scaling of systems engineering activities commensurate with the specific project needs, developing project schedules and executing them to meet critical milestones, and leading cross-functional project teams on complex integration issues are also key responsibilities. Interfacing with external customers and presenting in customer reviewers, leading systems engineering process and tool development and continuous improvement, and synchronizing with the Vulcan Development organization to ensure Recurring operations successfully onboard new capabilities are also part of the role. Additionally, the position involves mentoring junior engineers, helping develop a cadre of world-class Systems Engineers at ULA.
