Description

At Northrop Grumman, our employees have incredible opportunities to work on revolutionary systems that impact people's lives around the world today, and for generations to come. Our pioneering and inventive spirit has enabled us to be at the forefront of many technological advancements in our nation's history - from the first flight across the Atlantic Ocean, to stealth bombers, to landing on the moon. We look for people who have bold new ideas, courage and a pioneering spirit to join forces to invent the future, and have fun along the way. Our culture thrives on intellectual curiosity, cognitive diversity and bringing your whole self to work — and we have an insatiable drive to do what others think is impossible. Our employees are not only part of history, they're making history.

Northrop Grumman Aeronautics Systems is seeking a Engineer Systems/Principal Engineer Systems in Systems Integration supporting the Advanced Hawkeye program’s architecture. This position will be onsite in Melbourne, FL.

The Systems Integration team is a core part of System Engineering and spans the technical baseline and program aspects in multiple Advanced Hawkeye programs. The System Integration team works with other system, software, test and quality teams to coordinate and integrate the development process and engineering efforts on new capability programs. System Engineering works as part of a team driving digital transformation to engineering practices within the enterprise.

The Integration process provides a framework to systematically integrate, assemble and verify lower-level system elements into successively higher-level system elements, until the system itself is realized in its entirety. It includes planning, orderly build up tasks, and activities required to ensure that the Configuration Items comprising the system solution function as a whole. The resulting product configuration baseline supports system verification and any other required system level testing. Early interface development and management is critical to the success of the Integration process. Interface control specifications, interface control documents or interface design descriptions support Interface Management by verifying that the interfaces developed are accurate, effective and configuration controlled. The end result is a systematic buildup of the product baseline under configuration control, managed and authorized for final formal verification activities by the technical community towards completion of the assigned scope.

As a Systems Integration Engineer, you will:

  • Develop an integration plan consistent with the program’s Integrated Master Schedule.
  • Oversee integration activities in accordance with their approved integration plan.
  • Monitor the development and delivery schedules for the components to be integrated.
  • Peer review test procedures to ensure that the resulting procedures adequately meet the needs of the verification plan and cover the stated requirements set.
  • Ensure test procedures are linked to the associated integration plans and the requirements they are intended to verify.
  • Review test results to identify issues that must be addressed regarding integration verification failures.
  • Ensure integration failures and discrepancies have been recorded and reviewed by the appropriate technical review board.
  • Support periodic Interface Control Working Groups (ICWG).
  • Manage and document hardware and software configurations.

This role can be filled at the Principal (Level 3) or Senior Principal (Level 4) level.

Basic Qualifications (Principal):

  • Must have a Bachelor’s degree AND 5 years of related professional/military experience OR a Master’s degree AND 3 years of related professional/military experience OR a Ph.D. AND 1 year of related professional/military experience.

Basic Qualifications (Senior Principal):

  • Must have a Bachelor’s degree AND 8 years of related professional/military experience OR a Master’s degree AND 6 years of related professional/military experience OR a Ph.D. AND 4 years of related professional/military experience.

Applicable at Both Levels:

  • Understanding of systems engineering principles.
  • Ability to develop systems integration plans.
  • Experience with the integration of aircraft systems in either development or production environments.
  • Understanding of aircraft development or other major platforms (ex: Spacecraft, Radar).
  • Ability to execute integration activities and track integration activity metrics.
  • Must have the ability to obtain or maintain a U.S. Government Secret or higher clearance (with a background investigation completed within the last 6 years or currently enrolled into Continuous Evaluation).
  • Must have the ability to obtain and maintain Special Access Program (SAP) clearance within a reasonable amount of time as determined by business needs.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience with MBSE tools to plan integration activities.
  • Experience with Jira, Confluence, DOORS, and Cameo (or equivalent).
  • Experience with test benches and verification.
  • Understand interfaces of aircraft systems (ex: 1553, 429, etc.).
  • Experience with deficiency reporting and writing.
  • Assist with resolution of deficiency reports.
  • Demonstrate full working knowledge of Systems Engineering procedures and practices.
  • Evaluate test requirements to ensure completion of test phase.
  • Assist with sell-off of system requirements to customer.
  • Track hardware and software configuration throughout development lifecycle.
  • Already possess an Active DoD TS Clearance.
  • Already possess an Active Program Specific SAP Clearance.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
