Who we are looking for
We are looking for a hands-on Systems Engineering Manager with deep avionics experience who can lead both people and technology. This individual will help define next-generation airborne connectivity products by translating customer and business needs into system requirements, technical solutions, integration strategies, and verification plans while leading a high-performing engineering team.
Annual base salary range: $150,000-$160,000 USD
What you will do
  • Lead the Systems Engineering team and provide technical leadership for avionics systems integration, verification, and validation activities.
  • Define and decompose customer, regulatory, and product requirements into system-level requirements, technical specifications, architectures, and verification strategies.
  • Support next-generation product development by defining system capabilities, interfaces, and technical solutions.
  • Lead development of customer, system, and component-level test plans and test cases.
  • Own delivery of system-level solutions, ensuring technical, quality, and program commitments are met.
  • Lead resolution of technical challenges encountered during development, integration, and verification activities.
  • Support certification and compliance activities, including requirements traceability, verification planning, test execution, and documentation.
  • Collaborate closely with hardware, software, program, certification, and customer teams while representing the organization in technical discussions and customer reviews.

Requirements
  • Demonstrated experience with avionic systems and certification frameworks, such as DO-160 and system-level certification processes.
  • Strong understanding of avionics system and software architectures, with the ability to define cohesive hardware/software solutions.
  • Experience with common avionics and aerospace I/O interfaces, such as Ethernet, ARINC 429, CAN bus, RS-232/422/485, discrete lines/gpios, and/or related data buses.
  • Solid understanding of networking concepts, including determinism, redundancy, latency, and certification considerations.
  • Hands-on experience with Ethernet, IP, and web-based networking.
  • Comfortable working on remote systems via command line (vi, ssh, scp, curl, wget, etc.).
  • Experience with lab test tools such as Spectrum Analyzers, Signal Generators, Vector Network Analyzers, Oscilloscopes, Variable Frequency Power Supplies, etc.
  • Proven ability to decompose customer and regulatory requirements into optimized system designs, including block diagrams, technical descriptions, and hardware/software recommendations.
  • Experience across the entire system development lifecycle, including design, configuration, testing, debugging, implementation, and configuration management.

Work Environment
This role operates in indoor settings, including office and warehouse/airplane hangar environments, requiring the use of standard office equipment and safety gear. Occasional exposure to fumes, airborne particles, moving mechanical parts, and vibration may occur.
