Description
Are you a "systems thinker" with advanced engineering design and analysis experience that wants to have impact on nationally important defense programs? Do you love working with a group of dedicated technical specialists in a collaborative teaming environment? If so, we're looking for someone like you to join our team at APL. We are seeking a Senior Systems Design Engineer or Senior Systems Design Analyst for the System Realization and Resilience Group in the Force Projection Sector. We provide vital engineering design and analysis expertise to systems engineering and system development efforts to support nationally important strategic deterrence capabilities for the Navy and Air Force. As a member of our team, you will develop and assess technical design requirements, develop resilient and modular architectures, conduct detailed design analysis, build and modify analysis tools, develop analytics and conduct engineering and performance analysis / assessment for strategic weapons systems and related development programs. We are passionate about making critical contributions to these critically important programs, and you will be a key part of our success. With your help, we will remain at the forefront of strategic weapon systems engineering for the Force Projection Sector.
As a
Senior Systems Design Engineer ... You will utilize digital engineering tools, physics/logistics/models/simulations to analyze weapon system capabilities, architectures, designs, Government and Contractor models, and to assist in the development and analysis of current and future weapon systems. Your primary responsibility will be to provide extensive and detailed engineering thought leadership and expertise focusing on architecture and analysis, technology and design assessment, system and performance modeling, risk and reliability assessments, and related critical analysis of test & evaluation efforts for strategic deterrent systems. Using digital tools and engineering models, you will:
Conduct or participate in the technical and engineering analysis and review of technical work products, designs, change proposals, and proposed capability enhancements. Provide engineering domain expertise while leading/coordinating research, studies, and analysis on current and future weapons system capabilities and performances as well as provide supporting data and associated recommendations to advise program sponsors. Deliver formal presentations to sponsors and supporting contractors, and effectively communicate proposed concepts/solutions and analysis results. You will produce reports that bring together concept definitions, requirements, analysis results, and technical recommendations.
Core Expectations:
You are an "engineer's engineer". Candidate must possess a proven track record of significant engineering design experience with a deeply technical foundation in the application and integration of multiple disciplines. This includes the demonstrable use of physics-based models, logistics-based analysis, applied statistics, materials science, and advanced mathematics to define, analyze, and solve complex problems. Candidates must have a working knowledge of formal Systems Engineering principles and methodologies, as well as hands-on, working knowledge of Cameo for Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE).
Qualifications
You meet our minimum qualifications for the job if you... Have a Bachelor's degree in engineering, mathematics, physics or related technical field. Have extensive and direct responsibility and experience in producing deeply technical designs or conducting design and engineering analysis or similar evaluation of complex and integrated systems. Are highly knowledgeable regarding Systems Engineering practices, standards, tools, and methods. Have working knowledge of Cameo, Magic Draw, Rhapsody, or other MBSE tools. Have significant experience developing or enhancing physics-based/logistic/statistical or related engineering models and simulations to conduct engineering analysis. Have especially strong verbal and written communication skills, as well as strong critical thinking skills. Have shown the ability to interact effectively with and lead multi-disciplinary teams, including industry and government sponsors. Are willing and able to travel periodically, including short duration visits to sponsor offices at the Washington Navy Yard and to supporting contractor sites, as well as occasional travel to other military bases across the country. Hold an active Secret security clearance by your start date and can ultimately obtain TS/SCI level clearance. If selected, you will be subject to a government security clearance investigation and must meet the requirements for access to classified information. Eligibility requirements include U.S. citizenship. Ideal Candidate Going beyond the core requirements, the ideal candidate should demonstrate a history of leading complex design efforts from initial concept through verification and validation. They should possess expert-level ability in not just using, but developing, high-fidelity, multi-domain models and simulations from first principles. Advanced proficiency in Cameo is highly desired, including experience creating detailed system architectures, conducting trade studies, and managing requirements directly within the MBSE environment. The ideal candidate should also be an exceptional communicator, capable of conveying complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. You'll go beyond our minimum requirements if you... Have an advanced degree in systems engineering. Have experience in systems engineering for missile systems. Have experience with DoD acquisition processes, Navy Strategic Systems programs, and/or Air Force ICBM programs. Are a subject matter expert in one or more MBSE tools such as Cameo (preferred), Rhapsody, MagicDraw, and DOORS. Have experience with new DoD program development to include concept development and Pre-Milestone A activities. Have engineering knowledge of one or more strategic weapons systems.
