Job : (Test) Systems Engineer -
SECRET CLEARANCE REQUIRED Location : Tucson, AZ (on-site) Clearance : Secret (or above) Pay : $100,000 - $125,000 annually with full Government benefits. Overview
As a
Test Systems Engineer , you will coordinate across multiple engineering disciplines to
define, design, and document test environment capabilities and requirements . This role demands a
systems-thinking mindset
— someone who can visualize the big picture while understanding the technical details that drive system-level success. You’ll play a critical role in
how prime hardware is tested
at every level (from individual components to full system integration) to ensure performance, robustness, and cost efficiency across the product lifecycle. Key Responsibilities
Lead the definition, design, and documentation of
test environment architectures and capabilities Utilize expertise in
models, simulations, test beds, prototypes, and hardware integration
to ensure end-to-end test coverage Apply
developmental test processes
to design, integrate, and validate system-level test equipment Ensure smooth
transition of test systems to production and factory environments Support
hardware verification and validation (V&V)
using proven test methodologies and embedded test protocols Collaborate directly with
Department of Defense (DoD)
customers and stakeholders on technical requirements and deliverables Analyze and define
specialized capital investment needs
to support test development initiatives Drive
affordability improvements
through effective cost measurement, built-in-test capabilities, and lifecycle reduction strategies Identify and mitigate
technical risks , ensuring design integrity and alignment with program objectives Foster a
collaborative engineering culture
that emphasizes quality, innovation, and continuous improvement Required Knowledge & Experience
Hands-on experience in
test system design, integration, and lifecycle testing Strong understanding of
hardware-in-the-loop ,
simulation , and
prototyping methodologies Familiarity with
hardware manufacturing processes
and
embedded test techniques Proven ability to work across
multidisciplinary engineering teams
in complex defense or aerospace environments Working knowledge of
verification/validation processes , test automation, and system-level analysis Active
Secret clearance
(or higher) required Why Join Us
We value diverse skills, experiences, and perspectives — and believe they’re key to innovation. You’ll join a hands-on engineering team where your ideas shape the tools that test and protect the world’s most advanced technologies. If you’re passionate about designing smarter, more efficient test systems that make a real impact, we’d love to have you on the team.
