Position: System Engineer - Mid Level

Location: Springfield, VA or Valley Forge, PA

Clearance: TS/SCI

Position Description:

TRIAEM is seeking a motivated product quality SYSTEM ENGINEER. The candidate will lead the planning, test development, data definition, and task execution for assessing the quality and utility of imagery and imagery products from commercial sensor constellations. The candidate will need to write clear test plans to satisfy test objectives. They will lead a team of image scientists, image analysts, photogrammetrists, and statisticians to perform specific tasks, track issues, and clearly communicate status and results to multiple stakeholders. The candidate should have a working knowledge of and experience with commercial constellations to include:

• Commercial EO (i.e. video and/or multi-sensor systems operating throughout the visible and infrared portions of the electro-magnetic spectrum)
• Commercial Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR)
