Chief Airborne ISR Engineer
Location: Alexandria, VA
Openings: 1
Salary Range: 200K range
Description:
We currently have an opening for a Chief Engineer with extensive U.S. Army Systems Engineering experience to lead and manage all activities on complex Airborne Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) systems.
These systems typically include the integration of sophisticated sensors (EO/IR, SIGINT, Hyper-Spectral (HSI), LIDAR, Radar), communications and data links, onto aircraft (with avionics), and the development of the associated Processing, Exploitation and Dissemination (PED) capabilities.
Job Description
Leads overall technical systems engineering and integration oversight across one or more programs/projects involving the development, manufacture, integration, test and support of complex airborne ISR systems.
The successful candidate must be able to perform and manage system tradeoff studies; manage requirements analyses and traceability; oversee size, weight and power (SWAP) management; develop test and integration plans; participate in airworthiness evaluation and oversee final test and acceptance.
The candidate must have domain knowledge in all relevant areas, to include; hardware and software integration, aircraft and aircraft systems and integration, ISR sensors, communications, survivability equipment, workstations and software, airworthiness, and integration and test.
