Work directly with customers, program leadership, and technical teams to capture and clarify operational concepts, use cases, and stakeholder needs.
Develop and maintain system and subsystem requirements specifications, interface control documents (ICDs), and related engineering artifacts.
Establish and maintain bidirectional traceability between stakeholder requirements, system requirements, design elements, and test cases in the chosen requirements management tools.
Support architecture and design efforts by ensuring requirements are well structured, testable, and aligned to program constraints and objectives.
Drive requirements baselining and change control processes; assess the impact of requirement changes on cost, schedule, and technical performance.
Collaborate with test and integration teams to define verification methods (analysis, test, inspection, demonstration) and ensure requirements are fully verified and validated.
Basic Qualifications:
Must have a Bachelors of Science degree in a STEM field and at least 8 years of relevant military / professional experience, OR a Master's Degree in a STEM field and at least 6 years of relevant military / professional experience, OR a PhD and at least 4 years of relevant military / professional experience
Must have an active US Government Secret or higher clearance (with a background investigation completed within the last 6 years or currently enrolled into Continuous Evaluation).
Preferred Qualifications:
Experience on airborne ISR, mission systems, or tactical communications programs.
Hands on experience defining and managing requirements for complex, multi disciplinary systems (software, hardware, network, and integration).
Experience with Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) approaches and tools.
Familiarity with government or industry standards relevant to AISR&T (e.g., MIL STDs, interface standards, security/cyber requirements).
Familiarity with requirements management tools (e.g., DOORS, DOORS Next, Jama, Cameo/MBSE) and standard requirements practices.
