About The Position

Odyssey is seeking a Senior General/Interdisciplinary Engineer to support the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center/PEO Electronic Systems Directorate (AFLCMC/ES). The role supports the Air Force Program Execution Office for PEO Electronic Systems in managing and executing modernization, development, testing, production, fielding, and sustainment across a portfolio of more than 130 programs for the U.S. Air Force and foreign allies. The position is contingent on position award and is full-time and hybrid at Hanscom Air Force Base, Massachusetts, with 20% travel; the posting also lists the location as onsite. The engineer will support systems acquisition and sustainment throughout the system life cycle. Work includes developing and reviewing technical documentation, system architectures, requirements, acquisition and milestone materials, and test plans; conducting engineering analyses and trade studies; supporting technical reviews, assessments, and testing; and providing technical recommendations to the Government. The position also supports requirements, risk, interface, and configuration management; integrated logistics support; and coordination across customers, contractors, and technical disciplines. For the Kuwait Air Operations Center Program, the engineer is expected to perform network analysis involving Command and Control sensor data and integration into a common air picture. The work requires analysis of network connectivity, COMSEC impacts, interfaces, and differing data sets, including integration of new and legacy systems and possible cross-domain solutions. Applicants must be U.S. citizens and have an active Secret clearance that they can maintain. The posting identifies a bachelor’s degree in a related field and 12 years of relevant experience, including five years in DoD, or 15 years of directly related experience with applicable certifications, including eight years in DoD, as preferred qualifications.
