The Engineering, Science and Analysis (ESA) Strategic Capabilities Unit comprises the technical talent and organizational leadership that enables the successful delivery of high-impact discriminating technologies for our customers’ missions. Our collaborative, cross-functional teams are committed to innovation, integrity, continual learning and strong execution.

What You’ll Do:

• As a Systems Engineer, you will move beyond theory and into application, utilizing a custom-built tool-suite to characterize the performance of complex system architectures. Your work will provide the data-driven insights that set the requirements for the components and systems of tomorrow.
• Technical Development & Innovation:
  • Build the Tools: You won't just use existing software; you will develop new tools and algorithms for mission systems modeling and data analysis, evolving our capabilities in real-time.
  • Analyze Complex Systems: Collaborate with a team of analysts to simulate and characterize mission performance across diverse domains (Space, Air, and Ground).
  • Solve Real-World Problems: Contribute to critical project milestones by providing creative solutions to multifaceted technical bottlenecks.
• Professional Growth & Visibility:
  • Develop Executive Presence: Gain rare, early-career experience presenting your findings and proposed solutions to peers, senior management, and external customers.
  • Business Acumen: Get a "behind-the-scenes" look at the defense industry by supporting new business initiatives, including proposal writing and cost/schedule estimation.
  • Cross-Functional Synergy: Build a professional network across Strategic Business Units and the wider company, learning how high-impact technologies move from concept to delivery.
• Maintain a regular and predictable work schedule.
• Establish and maintain effective working relationships within the department, the Strategic Business Units, Strategic Capabilities Units and the Company. Interact appropriately with others in order to maintain a positive and productive work environment.
• Perform other duties as necessary.

On-Site Work Environment: This position requires regular in-person engagement by working on-site five days each normally scheduled week in the primary work location. Travel and local commute between company campuses and other possible non-company locations will be required.

This role is based on-site five days per week to ensure you have the mentorship, face-to-face collaboration, and hands-on experience necessary for rapid professional growth.

Working Conditions:

• Work is performed in an office, laboratory, production floor, or cleanroom, outdoors or remote research environment.
• May occasionally work in production work centers where use of protective equipment and gear is required.
• May access other facilities in various weather conditions.
• Your work will take place across a variety of dynamic settings, including:
  • Advanced Research Hubs: Professional office environments and high-tech laboratories.
  • Integration Centers: Production floors and cleanrooms (where specialized PPE and safety gear are required).
