Merlin
Senior Systems Engineer for GNC Requirements and Interfaces
Who you are: You are a very experienced systems engineer involved in systems integration, requirements management, system design, and testing in civil-certified or DOD safety-critical avionics systems. You have a passion for new development and have a proven record of navigating the challenges in new product development. You’ve worked in an experimental R&D flight test environment with general aviation aircraft and know how to keep safety at the forefront while still moving quickly. You also have experience in interfacing with a wide array of engineering domains, customers, suppliers, and partners.
Responsibilities
Guide system development from system requirements capture, through design decision making, to final demonstration for systems being implemented on existing general aviation aircraft
Facilitate the development of concepts of operation, system architecture (including functional and physical architectures), system requirements, and system interfaces for Merlin products
Work across the safety, hardware, and software teams to capture, document, and communicate requirements and interfaces
Managing systems engineering tasking and aligning disciplines to support their successful and timely completion
Participate in the development of systems engineering development plans and processes as needed
Participate in reviews of artifacts with customers, suppliers, and regulatory authorities as required
Qualifications
BS in Electrical/Aerospace/Systems Engineering or a related subject, MS preferred
