Job Title: Systems Engineer Location: Stafford, VA (On-site)- Relocation is provided Industry: Aerospace & Defense Salary: $135,000 - $150,000 *Must be a US Citizen or ITAR compliance Greencard holder-ability to obtain clearance* Overview Seeking a Systems Engineer to support the design, integration, and validation of mission-critical defense systems. This role serves as the technical bridge between engineering design, manufacturing, program management, and external customer requirements. The Systems Engineer will manage system-level requirements, conduct system integration and testing, drive technical reviews, and ensure that all evolving subsystems converge into a reliable, compliant, and mission-ready operational platform. This is a hands-on, high-impact role within a fast-paced environment, developing cutting-edge UAS and munitions for U.S. military customers. Requirements Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical, Electrical, Systems Engineering, or related field 5+ years of experience in aerospace, defense, or military systems engineering. Proficiency with system-level requirements development, flow-down, verification, and validation Hands-on experience with system integration, system architecture, trade studies, and performance analysis Working knowledge of system modeling tools such as MATLAB/Simulink, DOORS, SysML, or equivalent Familiarity with ITAR, DFARS, DoD acquisition frameworks, and configuration-controlled development U.S. Citizen or Active Green Card holder with the ability to obtain a security clearance. Background in reliability engineering, FMEA, or system safety analysis (MIL-STD-882) Experience conducting environmental testing, performance modeling, and hardware-in-the-loop testing Familiarity with sensors, guidance/navigation systems, telemetry, propulsion, or communications payloads Understanding of production engineering and manufacturability considerations for defense products Excellent communication skills and ability to work across multi-disciplinary teams. Responsibilities:
Systems Requirements & Architecture Define, analyze, allocate, and manage system-level requirements across the full product lifecycle. Translate customer, mission, and military specifications into subsystem requirements and technical baselines. Develop and maintain system architectures, block diagrams, interfaces, and configuration-controlled documentation. Systems Design, Integration & Validation Lead integration of mechanical, electrical, software, guidance, propulsion, and payload subsystems into a cohesive system. Conduct system-level test planning, execution, data review, and verification activities for loitering munitions and UAV platforms. Perform trade studies, failure analyses, risk assessments, and performance modeling to evaluate competing design paths. Multi-Disciplinary Collaboration Work closely with design engineering, manufacturing, supply chain, procurement, and quality to ensure design intent aligns with production realities. Participate in design reviews (SRR, PDR, CDR) and ensure all subsystems integrate without conflict or degradation of system performance. Support supplier onboarding, technical clarifications, and evaluation of subsystem/component performance. Technical Reviews, Documentation & Compliance Prepare and maintain system documentation, verification matrices, technical reports, and testing artifacts. Ensure compliance with ITAR, DFARS, and DoD system engineering standards and program requirements. Support customer presentations, proposals, demonstrations, and field evaluations of system performance. Program Execution & Mission Delivery Provide real-time engineering support during development builds, test events, and evaluation of prototype or production-ready systems. Ensure system solutions meet performance, reliability, cost, and schedule objectives for mission-critical programs.
