Under minimal supervision, applies use and application of advanced engineering principles, theories, and concepts. Independently evaluates, selects, and applies standard engineering techniques to conduct complex research, analysis, compilation, design, development, and/or test of technical engineering data in support of customer requirements in one or more engineering disciplines. Able to perform in a lead role as a project/task leader. * Identifies, defines, analyzes, and generates complex specifications for test conduction, coordination of systems and analyses, proposal submittal, and performance of applied research and development
* Develops, documents, and implements solutions to complex technical problems associated with the analysis, design, development, operation, and/or modification of engineering products and services
* Researches, analyzes, and conducts equipment (hardware/software) design and development, system analyses, process studies, and research investigations for complex technical problems
* Establishes, develops, and maintains an effective working interface and coordination/ exchange of technical information among multi-disciplined engineering groups, subcontractors, and/or the customer. Researches, prepares, and delivers complex technical presentations to high level management and/or the customer
* Provides functional and technical guidance to less experienced engineers in all aspects of engineering projects. Organizes and leads assigned sections of major program reviews, design reviews, and proposals
