Sentinel - Facility & Platform Integration Capability Lead Systems Engineer 5

About the role

The Sentinel program is seeking a Facility & Platform Integration Capability Lead Staff Systems Engineer (Level 5) to lead activities including requirements definition / allocation, functional decomposition, interface definition, verification & validation, and requirements traceability across the ground segment of the Sentinel Weapon System.

Responsibilities

• Lead a small team of systems engineers to develop systems engineering artifacts across the Electromagnetic Environmental Effects (E3) and Ground Systems threads
• Work with both technical teams and stakeholders to develop and mature allocation of shielding / filtering / grounding / TEMPEST requirements and associated facility architecture considerations, including grounding schematics and capital electrical design integration across Command and Launch Systems
• Develop systems architecture using Cameo Enterprise Architecture (behavioral, structural, analytical)
• Contribute to system requirements development, management, and analysis
• Develop unifying model techniques, procedures, and processes (for model development, tool integration, and team integration)
• Lead the development of automated FDIR frameworks and Built-In Test (BIT) strategies (Periodic, Initiated, and Continuous) for high-consequence systems
• Define clear, deterministic state transitions for critical mission sequences (e.g., Power-On, Daily Monitoring, Targeting/Planning, Countdown, Launch, Abort, and Shutdown)
• Leverage fault-tree analysis to design algorithms that isolate anomalous behavior down to the specific LRU or software
• Design and implement complex system development on large programs

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) with 12 years of experience; or master’s degree with 10 years of experience; or PhD with 8 years of experience
• Active DoD Secret Clearance, at time of application, current and within scope, with an investigation date within the last 6 years
• Ability to obtain Special Access Program (SAP) approval within a reasonable period, as determined by the company to meet its business needs
• 4 years of experience with requirements management/analysis/allocations
• 3 years of experience with Model-Based Engineering / Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBE/MBSE) practices, languages and/or tools such as Cameo, Rhapsody or MagicDraw
• 5 years of experience with one or more of the following: Command & Control (C2), physical security, cybersecurity, Nuclear Command, Control, and Communications (NC3) systems/processes, communications systems, facility design, military aerospace development (e.g. Sentinel, Minute Man III, B-2, B-21 delivery systems)

Qualifications

• Active DoD Top Secret Clearance
• Demonstrated understanding of the Systems Engineering Vee Model
• 3+ years of experience in model-based systems engineering; thread-based system decomposition, requirements engineering, system modeling in SysML
• Experience in documenting Interface Control Documents, Interface Requirement Specifications, and Interface Description Documents
• Understanding of Object-Oriented Systems Engineering Methodology and systems thinking
• Excellent collaboration skills and experience working across product, design, and systems engineering teams with various stakeholder communities
• Prominent technical leadership in designing, modeling, and verifying complex, hierarchical State Machines for distributed, real-time command and control architectures
• Extensive experience developing automated FDIR frameworks and Built-In Test (BIT) strategies (Periodic, Initiated, and Continuous) for high-consequence systems
• Experience with ICBM weapon system engineering and integration
• Experience with complex system development on large programs
