we are looking for a Systems Integration Engineer.
What you'll own:
Own requirements flow-down from vehicle-level acoustic, performance, and safety targets to subsystem specifications under an ARP4754A-aligned development process.
Author and control interface definitions across structures, propulsion, avionics, and software – including the vibration, isolation, and acoustic constraints most ICDs never carry.
Build and maintain the vehicle requirements and verification database with full bidirectional traceability from stakeholder need to test evidence, and defend it in audits.
Plan and run integration campaigns on the systems bench and iron bird: power-on sequencing, interface checkout, fault injection, and end-to-end functional verification before anything flies.
Lead ground and flight test campaigns as the vehicle-level V&V owner – define test objectives, success criteria, and instrumentation requirements, then reconcile measured results against requirements line by line.
Chair cross-subsystem integration reviews and arbitrate trades where a decibel saved in one subsystem costs mass, power, or schedule in another.
Conduct safety assessment work – FHA, PSSA, FMEA, and fault trees per ARP4761 – jointly with subsystem leads, and track every derived requirement to closure.
Drive gated design reviews from SRR through test readiness with hard closure metrics: verification status, open interface items, and integration risk burn-down.

Requirements:
B.Sc. or M.Sc. in aerospace, mechanical, electrical, or systems engineering, or equivalent demonstrated practice.
6+ years in systems engineering or integration on aircraft, UAV, spacecraft, or comparably complex electromechanical programs – including at least one carried from requirements through test.
Working command of ARP4754A development assurance and ARP4761 safety assessment – you have written FHAs and derived requirements, not just read about them.
Hands-on experience with requirements management tools such as DOORS, Jama, or Polarion, and a record of building traceability that survives external scrutiny.
Demonstrated ownership of interface control across mechanical, electrical, and software boundaries: ICDs, signal lists, connector-level definition, and disciplined change control.
Experience planning and executing ground or flight test campaigns – test plans, procedures, instrumentation requirements, and rigorous post-test reconciliation against requirements.
Enough fluency in structural dynamics, vibration, or acoustics to interrogate a noise requirement and recognize when a subsystem's verification evidence does not actually close it.
Clear written English – your requirements, interface documents, and verification reports are the program's backbone and, eventually, its certification record.
