Systems Engineer I

About the Role

As a Systems Engineer I, you will apply foundational skills in key areas such as requirements engineering, systems integration, Verification & Validation (V&V), and Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE). You will assist in system and decision analysis, technical planning, and risk management under supervision. You will contribute to project tasks with basic knowledge in architecture/design development, technical monitoring, and lifecycle management, while effectively communicating and collaborating with team members. You are expected to demonstrate eagerness to learn and grow within the field.

Key Responsibilities

• Assist in basic requirements engineering, systems integration, V&V, and MBSE tasks.
• Support system and decision analysis, technical planning, and risk management under supervision.
• Contribute to project tasks with foundational knowledge in architecture/design development and technical monitoring.
• Participate in lifecycle management activities.
• Communicate and collaborate effectively with team members.
• Demonstrate eagerness to learn and grow within the field.
