Standard Job Description

The Embedded Integration Systems Engineer is responsible for defining, developing, and maintaining the architecture and models of subsystem packages that contain embedded hardware, circuitware, and software elements. This role ensures that each package meets its functional, performance, and interface requirements while providing clear insight into how the embedded components operate within the larger system. The engineer partners with cross‑functional teams to manage package‑level configuration, interface development, and performance metrics.

Key Responsibilities:

• Package Architecture Management
• Develop and maintain package‑level architecture models (functional, logical, and physical) for embedded hardware‑software integrations.
• Produce and update functional/logical block diagrams, state‑mode charts, functional flows, sequence‑of‑event timelines, mission‑critical events, and Concept of Operations (ConOps) for each package.
• Collaborate with systems, hardware, firmware, software, test, and program teams to gather, refine, and validate package functions.

Configuration (Cameo) Management

• Own configuration management of package architecture models using Cameo Systems Modeler (or equivalent MBSE tool).
• Ensure all architecture changes are documented, reviewed, and approved in accordance with configuration‑control processes.
• Coordinate with the design and embedded‑software teams to keep architecture baselines synchronized with detailed design deliverables.

Package Interface Management

• Lead development of functional and physical interface requirements at the package level, emphasizing embedded interfaces (e.g., data buses, memory maps, timing signals).
• Support creation and maintenance of Interface Correlation Documents (IcDs) for the package and maintain traceability between interface requirements, architecture models, and downstream design artifacts.

Package KPI Management

• Define, develop, and maintain package‑specific Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that capture embedded performance metrics such as processing latency, power consumption, reliability, and mission‑critical timing.
• Track KPI trends, generate status reports, and provide actionable insights to the system‑level KPI manager.
• Ensure accurate roll‑up of package performance data to support system‑level performance assessments and decision‑making.

The information below reflects the standard job description for this position

Performs technical planning, system integration, verification and validation, cost and risk, and supportability and effectiveness analyses for total systems. Analyses are performed at all levels of total system product to include: concept, design, fabrication, test, installation, operation, maintenance and disposal. Ensures the logical and systematic conversion of customer or product requirements into total systems solutions that acknowledge technical, schedule, and cost constraints. Performs functional analysis, timeline analysis, detail trade studies, requirements allocation and interface definition studies to translate customer requirements into hardware and software specifications. 

Basic Qualifications

•  2+ years of experience with Cameo Systems Modeler (or other SysML‑compatible MBSE tools); experience with Enterprise Architect, Rhapsody, or similar.
•  Active Secret clearance with the ability to obtain and maintain a Top Secret as the final clearance

Desired Skills

• Bachelor’s (minimum) in Systems Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related STEM field.

• Prior FBM Missile or other Missile or Missile Defense experience (to include threat system).
• Familiarity with Model Based Systems Engineering practices and implementation.
• Demonstrated ability to manage architectural baselines and change control for embedded packages.
• Experience defining and documenting embedded interfaces (e.g., SPI, I²C, CAN, Ethernet, memory maps, timing constraints).
• Experience with process development and deployment.
• Experience with DOORS.
• Ability to conduct functional verification, performance analysis, and trade‑studies for embedded packages.
• Documented LM Systems Engineering Bootcamp Training completion.
• Strong written and oral communication; capable of translating technical concepts for multidisciplinary audiences.
• Effectiveness in matrixed, cross‑functional environments.
• Familiarity with INCOSE MBSE standards, ISO 15288, MIL‑STD‑499; experience developing and tracking KPIs for embedded systems.
• Proficient in AI prompting as it applies to this position and practice.
• Active Top Secret Clearance
