RESPONSIBILITIES True Anomaly is seeking a highly accomplished Chief Engineer, Host Vehicle to lead the technical execution of a next-generation missile defense program. This is a generational opportunity to architect a solution to some of the most challenging mission sets in missile defense, not to mention aerospace engineering as a whole. You will serve as the top technical authority for the host vehicle, accountable for engineering performance, risk management, and system integration. You will lead multi-disciplinary teams through design, development, analysis, test, and fielding phases while ensuring the vehicle architecture, requirements, and design decisions align with system-level objectives and mission success criteria. You must impedance match rigor and analysis depth to the maturity and risk posture of the program. Finally you will drive design and technical readiness reviews, technical baseline management, and design assurance.
QUALIFICATIONS Required Qualifications & Experience
10+ years of proven experience delivering a major aerospace subsystem or vehicle from concept through delivery/fielding
Demonstrated ability to balance technical rigor with schedule and program realities
Strong systems engineering and technical leadership background across mechanical, electrical, and software domains
Strong background in systems engineering practices: requirements, verification, trade studies, interface control, and failure analysis
Ability to lead cross-functional technical teams and coordinate across hardware and software boundaries
Bachelors Degree in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering, Robotics, or related field. Master’s or Ph.D. preferred
U.S. Citizen and eligible for DoD Secret
Desired Qualifications & Experience
Advanced degree in Aerospace, Mechanical, or Systems Engineering
Experience with missile defense or space vehicle programs
Strong track record leading cross-functional engineering teams and managing design-to-delivery cycles
