About The Position

Amentum is seeking a Systems Engineering Supervisor to support the Space Force Range Contract (SFRC). This role involves supervising, assigning, and overseeing duties and taskings while mentoring Lead Systems Engineers in subsystem execution. The supervisor will leverage broad technical expertise to guide cross-functional integration with all other Systems Engineering domains and serve as the Technical Lead for all Integrated Product Team (IPT) activities across the Launch and Test Range System (LTRS) Subsystems. The position also includes supervising and supporting the Systems Engineering team with Risk Analysis, Anomaly Analysis, Subsystem Project Integration, Risk and Opportunity Management Boards (ROMBs), and other Government IPT support. The role requires applying risk management principles to identify, assess, plan, and mitigate subsystem and LTRS risks, overseeing development, integration, and operational acceptance efforts for Range modernization, and leading/coordinating technical support staff on complex projects to ensure successful integration for all LTRS subsystems. Additionally, the supervisor will analyze potential systems investments, develop system architecture needs, prepare documentation and recommendations, support Test & Evaluation, Project Integration, Architecture, and Requirements, provide support for launch operations, manage issues including risk and anomalies, develop out-year plans and provide input for Government funding, support the development of acquisition documentation, and coordinate with Government customers and internal SFRC stakeholders. The role also involves managing, developing, and executing systems engineering processes to ensure continuity across the SFRC. Other duties as assigned.
