Bailey Collaborative Solutions (BCS)
is a mission-driven engineering and technology company specializing in solving complex systems challenges for government, aerospace, and defense clients. We develop, integrate, and sustain high-assurance systems that support security, space exploration, and advanced defense capabilities. BCS fosters a collaborative, agile environment where innovation and mission success go hand in hand. Position Summary We are seeking a highly experienced
Systems Engineer
- (Level 5) t o lead advanced systems development efforts across our aerospace and defense portfolio. With over 15 years of hands-on experience, you'll architect and manage mission-critical systems involving command and control, avionics, sensors, satellite ground systems, and secure communications. This role demands deep technical expertise, defense systems knowledge, and leadership across the full development lifecycle - from concept through sustainment. Key Responsibilities Architecture & Mission Systems Engineering Lead architecture definition and integration of secure, resilient aerospace and defense systems (e.g., C4ISR, missile defense, UAV platforms, SATCOM). Develop and manage end-to-end systems requirements, interface control documents (ICDs), CONOPS, and verification plans. Apply MBSE tools (e.g., Cameo, Enterprise Architect) and DoDAF frameworks to define traceable and modular architectures. Program & Technical Leadership Serve as technical lead for major DoD and aerospace programs, collaborating with prime contractors and government stakeholders. Guide system trades, risk assessments, and technical reviews (PDR, CDR, TRR, etc.). Mentor engineering teams and interface across disciplines including software, electrical, RF, and mechanical engineering. Systems Integration & Test (SI&T) Oversee integration of hardware and software in lab, field, and flight test environments. Lead development of test plans and participate in system validation against operational requirements. Collaborate with V&V teams to resolve anomalies, manage test data, and ensure delivery of qualified systems.
