Fire Power Medium System Engineer

  • Design / Test engineer, with emphasis on system and subsystem requirements analysis, development, integration, and test for functionality on medium- caliber turret platforms. Area of interest is lethality.
  • Perform system, subsystem, & LRU-level requirements analyses across lethality functionality, identifying interfaces & functionality for multiple programs/platforms. Examples of lethality functionality include weapon motion, sighting system motion, fire control states/modes, weapon firing, sensors, actuators, crew station interfaces (e.g., displays, hand stations), & diagnostics, with support as needed to power distribution, embedded training, etc. All efforts include consideration for fully operational & degraded modes.
  • Perform electrical hardware design (e.g., subsystem/system hardware interconnection design, supporting harness definition; schematic design).
  • Support software and hardware development activities for make or buy items as required to ensure planned subsystem and turret-level test activities occur according to project plans.
  • Prepare for laboratory/turret/vehicle integration/test by authoring test plans/procedures, defining test layout, power, harnessing, emulators, fault injection, etc.
  • Perform hardware and software test in lab, turret, and vehicle environments to release new/modified designs and/or to investigate & troubleshoot issues. Such testing includes use of various types of test equipment (e.g., multi-meters, oscilloscopes, Ethernet/CANBRS-422/etc. bus monitors, logic analyzers, spectrum analyzers, custom test equipment). Includes consideration for model-based test and automated test.
  • Summarize integration/test findings via test reports upon completion, working to identify corrective actions for issue.
  • Support box-level verification/qualification tests as required, including environmental test.
  • Analyze subsystem requirements and develop logic for flowcharts, state charts, state diagrams, and lethality algorithms for design documents. Support development, production, and fielding by investigating problem reports (e.g., engineering, manufacturing, or obsolescence problem reports) & resolving issues. Support development and release of design changes to address issues.
  • Coordinate with other organizations, compiling input, providing status, and providing suggested course(s) of action as required.
  • Support technical reviews.
  • Bachelors Degree in Electrical Engineering (BSEE), Computer Engineering (BSCE) or Robotics preferred. Similar technical degrees may be considered if experience aligns with this Requisitions (electrical/computer-based) work description and other job requirements. Additional consideration given to degree(s) beyond Bachelors Degree, and/or experience/certification(s) within same or applicable discipline(s)
  • Job primarily in the office and on-site in laboratory and/or turret/vehicle. Occasional travel to field, production, or supplier facilities required, including both domestic & international (largely Canada) destinations. Durations typically 1 week. Infrequently 2 weeks at a time.
  • Specific experience with lethality or fire control subsystem elements not essential. However, experience within some commercial and/or military vehicle integrated subsystem preferred, with desire & ability to apply experiences to fire control subsystem.
  • Hands-on experience with laboratory and/or vehicle integration/test preferred, including use of specialized test equipment (e.g., multi-meters, bus analyzers, oscilloscopes, data-recording devices) required.
  • Experience with Simulink/MatLab preferred. Desire ability to generate test scripts to test Model to Code generation/design.
  • Experience with DOORS / TeamCenter desired.
  • Ability to meet essential Anthropomorphic Size Restriction (ASR) requirements to work inside turrets & military vehicles (excluding drivers station) is required. Compliance with weight (260 lbs), chest circumference (47.8 in), waist circumference (46.1 in), and shoulder breadth (22.5 in) requirements is essential. Additional ASR requirements exist for height, waist height, chest depth, and waist depth.
  • Ability to lift and carry test equipment weighing 30 lbs required. Overtime, weekend, holiday, off-hours work occasionally required to complete time-critical tasks.
  • Good written and oral communication skills required.
  • Must be capable of working in a team environment.
  • Valid passport, or ability to obtain valid passport, required.
    • Ability to maintain a U.S. Secret Clearance for work on classified projects and/or for access to restricted-access locations desired, but not required.
