Position Summary Credence has an immediate need for a Systems Engineer at the senior level supporting the Air Dominance Division (AFLCMC/EBA) at Eglin AFB, Florida. The Air Dominance Division, AFLCMC/EBA, has responsibility for developing, producing, and sustaining Counter-Air, Counter-Air Defense, and Aerial Targets (including control and payload systems) for our nation's warfighters and foreign military customers. The Division provides advanced, high-impact, highly classified armament technologies and capabilities to meet joint Air Force, Navy, and Army warfighter requirements and creates enduring Air Dominance through agile, innovative solutions. This job is onsite at Eglin AFB, FL. Responsibilities include but are not limited to the duties listed below: Apply knowledge and experience in defining system safety program requirements and ensuring the planning, implementation, and accomplishment of system safety tasks and activities consistent with overall program requirements. Apply independent judgment using professional methods and techniques for well-developed electronic, electro-mechanical, and mechanical armament systems, guidance and control systems, weapons fusing, suspension and release equipment, and related test equipment. Interpret design requirements, hazards, specifications, and standards as they pertain to system safety, test, operational, and logistics requirements. Participate in test, flight, and operational readiness activities; accomplish and/or review system safety analyses within the context of system design trade-offs; and monitor safety-significant system configuration control activities and changes. Apply knowledge and experience in the design, development, production, operation, and sustainment of air armament systems throughout the acquisition life cycle, from requirements analysis through system disposal. Provide experienced engineering and technical resources with armament domain experience to support required tasks. Support armament and conventional munitions systems, including air-to-air and air-to-surface missiles, guided and unguided bombs, cruise missiles, cluster bomb units, nuclear payload guidance and control, directed energy systems, warheads, fuzes, seekers/sensors, ammunition, bomb racks, pylons, aerial targets, airborne test and air combat training and integrated instrumentation systems, radars, threat generators and simulators, Munitions Material Handling Equipment (MMHE), containers, air base operability equipment, artillery and CAD/PAD, aircraft countermeasures, rockets, explosive release devices, and other conventional munitions utilized in the USAF represented in class of supply Five (V). Conduct and support engineering and technical activities during material solution analysis; technology, engineering, and manufacturing development; production and deployment; and operation and support phases of the systems acquisition process. Support requirements definition and analysis, architecture design, implementation, integration, verification and validation, transition, decision analysis, requirements management, risk management, interface management, configuration management, and related engineering and technical documentation. Plan and execute technical reviews, audits, systems engineering technical reviews, assessments, and interchange meetings, including associated artifacts such as entry and exit criteria. Implement robust processes to address life-cycle requirements for each product support area. Produce architectures that assess user needs, document planned and existing systems intended to meet those needs, determine deficiencies, develop alternatives, recommend solutions, and support implementation planning. Provide developmental planning support by evaluating military mission objectives, related requirements documentation, and the ability of existing or derivative systems to meet mission needs and requirements. Advise and assist with detailing operational requirements and functional interactions within the system and with other systems, considering life cycle costs, logistics supportability, human factors, and related factors to support development program efforts. Plan the integration of existing engineering technology into systems and support Analyses of Alternatives (AoAs) for aircraft, cruise missile, and weapon systems in compliance with applicable DoD guidance. Translate DoD user requirements into system requirements for designing, developing, testing, and evaluating systems and subsystems. Perform reviews, studies, audits, evaluations, analyses, and proposal or modification reviews to assess technical feasibility, compatibility, and cost effectiveness and provide technical recommendations to the Government. Provide engineering analysis of system training, training equipment, and simulator requirements; prepare technical documentation; and evaluate equipment and simulator designs. Conduct engineering trade-off, simulation, make-or-buy, time, and engineering cost analyses in support of research, development, test, training, and acquisition of armament-related systems.
