    Systems engineering is a cross-functional engineering discipline centered on the process of designing, integrating, verifying, and managing complex systems over their life cycles. At its core, systems engineering focuses on understanding a system's needs and requirements and ensuring (testing) that the development and integration of its components (verification) meet these needs throughout the system's entire life cycle. This involves a holistic view that considers every aspect of the system, including hardware, software, users, processes, and the operational environment.

    In this position you will develop system architectures, requirements, interfaces, integration, testing, and verification of complex hardware/software for aviation-based systems while mentoring others. This role also impacts departmental operations and is responsible for planning, execution, bid estimations, and project performance. The role has autonomy where a self-starter will excel. Sound judgment and leadership skills are required. This opportunity will primarily be focused on technical execution of the team as well as individually assigned activities within the design procedures, practices and plans established by the programs.

    Location Preference: Ideally, candidate is local to the greater Grand Rapids, MI area, or secondly Clearwater, FL.
