About The Position

The GETC-PR Avionics Vision & Sensing Systems organization is looking to hire a talented, motivated Systems Engineer to design, develop, and test a variety of avionics products including Head-Up Display systems, helmet mounted display systems, vision systems, and innovative new display products geared toward the commercial, corporate and military aircraft markets. With an emphasis on product quality, we are developing systems which bring improved value to the flight deck through enhanced situational awareness, lower operating minima, and added safety benefits. From being the Head-Up Display provider for the Boeing Dreamliner to the Helmet Mounted Display provider for the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, Collins Aerospace continues to build trust every day. Our Systems Engineering team is responsible for helmet mounted display system requirement definition, including the definition of interfaces with other aircraft systems, the definition of desired functionality (including display formats and behaviors), and the verification and validation of the correct implementation of these defined characteristics, as well as LRU system definition and qualification. This role will initially work under the direction of a Lead Systems Engineer on one or more development programs and will be involved in the preparation of system-level verification procedures and the execution of those procedures. Growth to a lead engineer position is encouraged. This position will sit at our Aguadilla, PR location. You must be residing in Puerto Rico at the time of starting employment. Relocation is not offered. This role is categorized as hybrid, with 3 days onsite and 2 days remote following the schedule assigned by the Manager.
