  • Ensure alignment between requirements, architecture, and implementation across the development lifecycle.
  • Support design reviews (SRR, PDR, CDR, TRR) with high-quality artifacts and clear technical rationale.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with software, hardware, and integration teams to ensure system coherence.
  • Drive configuration control and change management for system artifacts.

  Essential Skills

  • Bachelor’s degree in Systems Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.
  • 5+ years of experience in systems engineering for software-centric or software-intensive systems.
  • Demonstrated expertise in requirements decomposition and management.
  • Experience with requirements traceability tools such as DOORS or equivalent.
  • Strong experience in Verification & Validation (V&V) planning and execution.
  • Hands-on experience with CAMEO or similar MBSE tools for modeling.
