Systems Engineer

Leonardo DRS, Inc.Danbury, CT

About The Position

The System Engineer is responsible for leading the design and development of complex power electronics systems. This role involves reviewing customer specifications and requirements to develop cost-effective designs, conceptualizing system and subsystem architectures, and creating comprehensive technical documentation and budget estimates for proposals. The engineer will identify and implement strategies to mitigate key development risks, verify product performance through simulation, analysis, and laboratory testing, and generate detailed design requirements using a requirements traceability matrix (RTM). Additionally, this position provides technical leadership on large projects, coordinating and delegating tasks within the engineering team to ensure successful completion.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in the field of electrical engineering or an equivalent technical field.
  • 5+ years of detailed design experience in power applications.

  • U.S. Citizenship required.
  • This position may require an active DOD security clearance or the ability to obtain such clearance within a reasonable time after commencement of employment.

Nice To Haves

  • Model-based design experience of power electronic systems desired.
  • Real-time modeling experience of power electronic systems desired.
  • Experience with Navy or other defense applications and market is highly preferred.

Responsibilities

  • Review customer specifications and requirements, and develop designs to best support them, including cost as a key design variable.
  • Conceptualize the architecture of complex systems and subsystems relating to power electronics, drives and uninterruptible power supplies.
  • Create the system level technical documentation and budget estimates for proposals.
  • Identify and develop strategies to retire key development risks.
  • Verify product or subsystem performance through simulation, analysis, and/or laboratory test.
  • Generate the necessary design requirements to specify components and subsystems of a product through the use of a requirements traceability matrix (RTM).
  • Provide technical leadership on large projects, with the ability to identify and delegate tasks to an engineering team, and drive completion of activities on time and budget.
