Northrop Grumman Space Systems – Launch and Missile Defense Systems has an exciting career opportunity for a Sr Principal Engineer Systems – Systems Engineer (25-088) to join our team of qualified, diverse individuals. In this role, you will be crucial to our mission to develop and maintain the Missile Defense System. This position will be in Colorado Springs, CO., or Huntsville, AL. Position Overview: The Command and Control, Battle Management, and Communications (C2BMC) program integrates the Missile Defense System. It is a vital operational system that enables the U.S. president, secretary of defense, and combatant commanders at strategic, regional, and operational levels to systematically plan ballistic missile defense operations, to see the battle develop collectively, and to dynamically manage designated networked sensors and weapons systems to achieve global and regional mission objectives. C2BMC supports a layered missile defense capability that enables an optimized response to threats of all ranges in all phases of flight. C2BMC is the force multiplier that globally and regionally networks integrate, synchronizing autonomous sensor and weapon systems and operations to optimize performance. C2BMC is integral to all system ground and flight tests, which verify and exercise all current and future missile defense system capabilities. As a Systems Engineer, you will be a key contributor to our current projects, working in an integrated team environment with other systems and specialty engineers to develop solutions. You will perform under the direction of the C2BMC Systems Engineering Manager and Product Owner, the Core Systems Engineering team lead, and support various project engineers as well as interface with team members, C2BMC management, and government customers to ensure high-quality products are generated on time and within the resources available. Essential Functions: Must have demonstrated the ability to communicate effectively, clearly present technical approaches and findings, and have experience writing and implementing project engineering plans. The systems engineer should have experience interacting with the customer to elicit requirements and with stakeholders to convey an understanding of the intent of the requirements. Perform requirements elicitation using behavioral artifacts such as use cases that are used both to understand and convey an understanding of the required behaviors and performance of the system. Supported the development and review of interface documents, system requirements, Verification Cross Reference Matrix (VCRM) development, architectural documentation, engineering estimates, and author and performed formal and informal engineering reviews. Must be flexible and support various tasks on short notice. Adhering to DOORS processes and procedures, reviewing the content and details of technical products, and acting as a technical interface to MDA working-level counterparts as required. Will be actively involved in the efforts associated with Agile development, including iteration planning, providing status, and supporting Agile team leadership. Must have demonstrated contributions to implementation that include the ability to analyze high-level needs and define a structured and logical approach to refine the capability into an integrated set of requirements that have led to a fielded product.
