The Systems Engineer will perform general systems engineering support and serve as the Scrum Master of an agile development team. They will work collaboratively with the software engineering team, testers, product owners and external teams to ensure a successful project. Responsibilities include ensuring the team adopts agile principles and follow the processes and practices, removing impediments to progress, facilitating meetings, working with the product owner and being very familiar with the product backlog. Other responsibilities include but are not limited to general systems engineering, requirements gathering, and defining and integrating system interfaces, drafting reports, briefing the customer on a frequent basis. The Systems Engineer will develop and deliver documentation, participate in various meetings and interface regularly with SMEs and internal and external teams.

-Manage system requirements and derived requirements to ensure the delivery of production systems that are compatible with the defined system architectures
-Assist with the development of system requirements functional requirements and allocation of the same to hardware and software
-Coordinate the resolution of action items from Configuration Control Board (CCB) meetings, design reviews, program reviews and test reviews that require cross-discipline coordination
-Participate in an Integrated Product Team to design new capabilities based upon evaluation of all necessary development and operational considerations
-Generate alternative system concepts, physical architectures, and design solutions
-Define the methods, processes, and evaluation criteria by which the systems, subsystems and work products are verified against their requirements in a written plan
-Develop system design solution that satisfies the system requirements and fulfills the functional analysis
-Participate in the development of system engineering documentation, such as System Engineering Plans, Initial Capabilities Documents, Requirements Specifications , and Interface Control Documents
-Participate in interface definition, design, and changes to the configuration between affected groups and individuals throughout the life cycle
-Derive from the system requirements an understanding of stakeholder needs functions that may be logically inferred and implied as essential to system effectiveness
-Derive lower-level requirements from higher-level allocated requirement that describe in detail the functions that a system component must fulfill, and ensure these requirements are complete, correct, unique, unambiguous realizable and verifiable
-Review and/or approve system engineering documentation to ensure that processes and specifications meet system needs and are accurate, comprehensive, and complete
-Capture all interface designs in a common interface control format and store interface data in a commonly accessible repository
-Assess each risk to the program and determine the probability of occurrence and quantified consequence of failure in accordance with an approved risk management plan In conjunction with system stakeholders, plan the verification efforts of new and unproven designs early in the development life cycle to ensure compliance with established requirements
-Establish a process to formally and proactively control and manage changes to requirements, consider impacts prior to commitment to change, gain stakeholder buy-in, eliminate ambiguity ensure traceability to source requirements, and track and settle open actions
-Manage and ensure the technical integrity of the system baseline over time, continually updating it as various changes are imposed on the system during the lifecycle from development through deployment and operation & maintenance
-Provide technical direction for the development, engineering, interfacing integration, and testing of specific components of complex hardware/software systems to include requirements elicitation, analysis and functional allocation, conducting systems requirements reviews developing concepts of operation and interface standards developing system architectures, and performing technical/non-technical assessment and management as well as end-to-end flow analysis
-Develop scenarios (threads) and an Operational Concept that describes the interactions between the system the user, and the environment that satisfies operational, support, maintenance and disposal needs
-Establish and follow a formal procedure for coordinating system integration activities among multiple teams, ensuring complete coverage of all interfaces
-Conduct and/or approve end-to-end system trade analyses to optimize system operations over its life-cycle through the proper balance of non-functional system performance areas
-Use validated models, simulations, and prototyping to mitigate risk and reduce cost of system development
-Ensure effective, periodic review and control of the evolving configuration of a system, both hardware and software components and associated documentation, during the life of the system
-Develop system design alternatives that consider life cycle cost, reuse, complexity, risk, system expansion and growth
-Develop alternative courses of action, workarounds and fall-back positions with a recommended course of action for each risk, and monitor and re-evaluate risks at appropriate milestones.

-Provide technical direction for the development engineering, interfacing, integration, and testing of all components of complex hardware/software systems to include requirements elicitation analysis and functional allocation conducting systems requirements reviews, developing concepts of operation and interface standards developing system architectures and performing technical/non-technical assessment and management as well as end-to-end flow analysis
