Dod Contractor Jobs in Roy, UT (NOW HIRING)

BAE Systems is seeking an exceptional systems engineer for an exciting opportunity to support the Air Force's acquisition of the next generation Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM), the Sentinel weapon system.
This systems engineer will work with a highly skilled team providing critical feedback for the weapon system's requirements. This position will assess and review requirements decomposition developed by the Prime contractor in order to ensure compliance to U.S. Government (USG) Weapon System Specification (WSS) for the Sentinel weapon system. It also entails coordinating with multiple internal stakeholders to document requirements discrepancies and overall requirement quality management. This position will operate in an organizational culture that develops and challenges employees to achieve high performance in a fast-paced, high-morale workplace using streamlined management policies and procedures. It is a challenging and rewarding opportunity to shape the development and deployment of the next generation intercontinental ballistic missile, the national security-critical backbone of our nuclear deterrent capability. Engineers in this position will become familiar with the entire weapon system, rather than one subsystem or component. Do not miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
This is a rare opportunity to join a high-performing team within a large defense company with an extraordinary, positive culture and mission focus. In this position, you will provide direct support to a national security-critical weapon system throughout engineering development, deployment and sustainment. You will help support several hundred personnel providing the government with ICBM expertise. You will become a trusted mission partner to the innovative, digital engineering-driven Air Force organization that is responsible to design, build, test, transition, and sustain the world's safest, most secure, and effective land-based nuclear deterrent, on-schedule.
BAE Systems has earned accolades as a "Top Workplace" in Utah based on employee feedback for five consecutive years, earning special distinction for providing a healthy work-life balance for our valued employees. BAE Systems is the only DoD contractor to have earned this distinction.
Why Sentinel? The Sentinel Program is an enormous and complex "Mega-Project" modernizing the entire ICBM weapon system deployed across tens of thousands of square miles in five states. Sentinel is one of the DoD's most important acquisition efforts for the next decade. It includes a complete refurbishment of hundreds of aging Minuteman III ICBM facilities, communications network, and a newly designed, technologically advanced ballistic missile, the Sentinel. It will also provide an entirely new command and control system as well as vast array of required support equipment specifically engineered to operate and sustain the new weapon system over the decades ahead. It enjoys broad, strong support at the national level. It is a long-term project -- the weapon system will deploy over a nine-year period beginning in approximately 2026 and remain operational until at least 2075. Sentinel is a career-defining program that will present unique and challenging opportunities that simply are not available with smaller projects.
