About The Position

BAE Systems has recently been awarded new programs and is currently undergoing an exciting period of growth. Are you an experienced hardware engineer looking for the next step to grow your career in a lead role? Do you have a background as a hardware engineer as a subject matter expert in Mechanical or EO/IR Engineering and leading teams of engineers through the development and transition to production process? Then, help us protect those that protect us by developing next generation of electronic systems products and solutions. We need your talent, motivation, and vision to join our growing teams. This role is a dual role where you will perform in the player-coach model, where some of your time is allocated to being a team manager of engineers and part of your time as an individual contributor. This managed balance enables you to work on programs as a technical contributor/leader and manage your systems engineering team. Because of the need for consistent, in-person collaboration and/or the requirement to perform all work onsite due to the nature of this particular role, it will be performed full-time onsite. This means work will be conducted on location at a BAE Systems facility 100% of the time. On top of numerous diverse and challenging career opportunities, BAE offers flexible schedules (including every other Friday off), competitive compensation, and an excellent benefit package that includes tuition reimbursement for advanced degrees.
