Booz Allen Hamilton
Test Engineer, Lead
Are you looking for an opportunity to combine your technical skills with big picture thinking to make an impact in the DoD? You understand your customer’s environment and how to develop the right systems for their mission. Your ability to interpret current capabilities and translate them into measurable test criteria to ensure mission needs are met makes you an integral part of delivering a customer‑focused engineering solution.
As a Test Engineer on our team, you’ll work with Booz Allen colleagues and the U.S. Space Force to develop and rapidly deploy the next generation of resilient Missile Warning (MW), Tactical Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (TISR), and Environmental Monitoring (EM) capabilities to deter attacks and provide critical information to our warfighters to defeat our enemies in battle. Your customer will trust you to not only test, analyze, evaluate, validate, and verify these systems, but also identify areas requiring urgent mitigation up front and early to develop this system with advanced technology solutions. Grow your skills by merging innovative engineering methodologies and cross‑disciplinary coordination to create tomorrow’s solutions. Join our team and create the future of remote sensing.
You Have:
15+ years of experience supporting government developmental test and evaluation
15+ years of experience working on test and evaluation, and integration on Major Defense Acquisition Programs, including space, ground, software, and hardware systems
15+ years of experience planning and executing system integration of complex space and ground systems
10+ years of experience working in a collaborative team environment, developing test strategies, plans, reports, and briefings, and participating in test execution, verification, or analysis
Experience supporting overall engineering integration of systems engineering and integration efforts for the DoD, government agencies, or commercial programs
