What are the responsibilities and job description for the System Engineer position at HireClearedTalent?
Role - Systems Engineer/Data Analyst
Location - Huntsville, Alabama
Clearance - Secret clearance
In the test analyst role, the candidate will perform Missile Defense System (MDS) performance analysis of test data generated primarily by the MDA Ground Test (HWIL)program. The candidate may also support analysis of MDA Flight Test program events and Real World Event data.
The role includes developing approaches to, along with tools to support, executing System-level and Element-level performance analysis on the complex Missile Defense System(MDS), and producing analysis results and inputs to the official SEA test reporting products and for presentation during data reviews.
Presentation of analysis results on behalf of the SEA customer is a strong possibility.
The engineer will be responsible for working with associated Systems Engineering(SE) teams, Test Organizations, Warfighters and Element Program focals to ensure MDS tests meet technical intent, system capabilities, and behaviors.
In this role, the candidate will develop, utilize and present analytical products with the intent of assessing strategic and/or theater/regional element system level performance of the MDS in ground test and flight test events. SEA performs analysis on all element of the MDS, with a focus on System-Level behaviors.
Individual must have knowledge of analytical approaches and demonstrated analytical skills and discipline.
Proficiency in using analytical tools that assess the system level performance of the MDS kill chain including sensor acquisition, tracking, and discrimination; battle manager engagement planning, warfighter interaction, and engagement coordination with other MDS systems; and interceptor acquisition, tracking, and discrimination. Must be able to work independently as well as part of a geographically distributed team.
SEA also values demonstrated capabilities in data scientist positions and the ability to develop tools to support analytical tasks and a desire to learn about MDS elements and the ability to apply an understanding of element behavior to a System-Level analytical perspective.
The candidate will analyze the MDS kill chain.
Degree and experience in an engineering classification, mathematics or physics: Bachelor’s, Master’s or PhD
Candidates with strong systems engineering or MDS analysis background and demonstrated collaboration and presentation skills are desired.
System level interface design and specification development experience is desired.
Additionally, knowledge of the Missile Defense System (MDS), a working knowledge of SQL, PostgreSQL, Python, Jupiter Notebooks, Tableau or similar analytical tools, system analysis, and system level testing are desired.
Familiarity with Integrated Air and Missile Defense (IAMD) Battle Command System(IBCS) behavior (e.g. engagement planning) and/or other lower-tier Weapon Systems or sensors is particularly desired by the SEA customer.
Secret clearance is minimum requirement, with higher clearance preferable.
