Full job description
Join our Downer Professional Services team and play a key role in delivering complex defence and national security projects that safeguard Australia’s future.
Downer Professional Services is comprised of two business units, our Technical, Advisory, and Capability consulting practice and Team Downer, a major service partner to Defence. Together, we are a multi-disciplinary advisory and delivery partner of choice for our clients in Defence and National Security.
We currently have an opportunity for a Combat Systems Engineer (Requirements/FPS) in either Sydney or ACT to work on complex naval combat systems modernisation projects.
What You’ll Do
These roles offer a broad scope, with key role responsibilities including:
Develop, review and maintain Functional Performance Specifications (FPS) for combat system elements and platform interfaces, ensuring alignment with Royal Australian Navy operational requirements.
Decompose stakeholder and Commonwealth requirements into measurable, testable requirements that support system design, integration and verification activities.
Support requirements management activities, including traceability, verification cross-reference matrices, baseline management and change control using requirements management tools such as DOORS.
Collaborate with external primes and contractors, and other stakeholders to define interface requirements and resolve integration constraints.
Contribute to major engineering reviews including System Requirements Reviews (SRR), Preliminary Design Reviews (PDR) and Critical Design Reviews (CDR), as well as verification and validation planning.
What You’ll Bring
Bachelor’s degree in Systems Engineering, Electrical Engineering or a related engineering discipline.
Experience developing functional or performance specifications for complex defence, naval or electronic systems.
Knowledge of requirements decomposition, traceability, verification methodologies and requirements management tools such as DOORS.
Strong technical writing, stakeholder engagement and cross-functional communication skills.
Due to the nature of the work, the successful applicant must be an Australian citizen and hold and maintain an AGSVA Security Clearance, as required by the Commonwealth. In some cases, compliance with International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) may also be required.
