• At least 3 years of experience, ideally in Aerospace Defense or Embedded systems

• Nice to have: knowledge of SCRE; risk management framework RMF, see above; interest in cyber security if they don’t have the actual professional experience

What you will be doing

• Work with the core systems security and LibertyWorks teams to help determine the technology and processes required to meet customer requirements for system security and resiliency

• Learn secure cyber resilient engineering (SCRE), apply technical knowledge as required throughout the product lifecycle: requirements, design, build, test, production, operations, and support

• Collaborate with government, customers, suppliers, and industry experts to understand and meet system requirements

• Create digital models and use digital tools such as model-based systems engineering (MBSE) to meet program expectations

• Develop and update systems security and resilience good practice and help ensure the techniques, policies, procedures, and knowledge to enable us to implement this good practice across the business

Preferred Requirements:

• Desire to learn and apply systems security policies and standards in engineering cyber-physical systems such as the Risk Management Framework (RMF), NIST SP 800-160, DO-326, and DoDI 5000.8

• Experience or interest in cybersecurity and cyber threats (e.g., designing secure products, systems, and applications; intrusion detection; digital forensics; system recovery; risk assessment tools and methods; security solutions, policies, standards, and procedures, etc.)

• Excellent technical and soft skills including systems thinking aptitude, communications, time management, and collaboration across multi-disciplinary teams

• Aspire to actively learn and dynamically respond to evolving objectives and emerging opportunities

Key Accountabilities:

• Collaborate with other systems teams and customers to fully capture and synthesize software requirements for high integrity embedded systems.

• Architect, design, develop software products through testing, diagnosing, and verification throughout the entirety of the product lifecycle. Execute software development activities and ensure the delivery of a compliant sub-system level solution for programs including hardware/software and software/software component testing.

• Lead a team of engineers with cross-functional skills to ensure all sub-system program objectives/deliverables are met including accountability for Schedule, Cost, Quality and Compliance. Plan and manage software development activities using agile methodologies.

• Ensure project risks (technical, cost, supply chain and timescale) are identified, managed (including integration of risk activities in the project plan) and escalated in accordance with the risk management plan.

• Compile functional descriptions, design assurance, and test results into reports sufficient for certifying authorities, customer deliverables, and gate reviews.

• Design for functional safety and security. Experience with embedded safety critical software for aerospace to meet civil or military qualification objectives.

Basic Requirements:

• Associate degree with 7+ years of experience in a relevant engineering environment (Electrical, Software, Controls, Systems)

• Bachelor's degree in STEM discipline with experience in a relevant engineering environment (Electrical, Software, Controls, Systems) with 5+ years’ experience

• Master’s degree in STEM discipline with experience in a relevant engineering environment (Electrical, Software, Controls, Systems), with 3+ years’ experience OR JD/PhD

Preferred Requirements:

• Excellent systems thinking aptitude: the ability to understand complex system boundaries, interactions, and interdependencies across multiple abstraction and aggregation layers throughout the system’s entire lifecycle.

• Ability to analyze and translate high level requirements into software systems and components.

• Exceptional interpersonal and communication skills (i.e., verbal, written, and presentation) for both expert and non-expert audiences.

• Experience with customer interactions and successful capture of externally funded programs that facilitate trade studies, research and technology development, and system architecture design as applicable to embedded control systems.

• Proficiency using 'C', Simulink, Assembly, Python. Familiarity with model-based software design and simulation; control system experience.

• Skill and understanding of safety critical control systems (DAL A-C), high integrity control solutions, the interaction between security and safety, aerospace certification & qualification standards and their application for electronics is highly desirable, including but not limited to standards such as RTCA / DO (Aerospace) and applicable Mil-STDs with basic knowledge of US Export Control regulations applicable to these components.
