RESPONSIBILITIES

Duties include, but not limited to:

Provide Systems Engineering assistance that applies a broad theoretical and practical knowledge of system engineering to the acquisition process. Provide engineering support in the design, operation, and sustainment of Air Traffic Control and Landing Systems (ATCALS) systems and components that cover tasks throughout the acquisition life cycle (requirements analysis through system disposal).

• Creating documentation for RDT&E and procurement: eliciting and capturing user requrirements, turning those into detailed technical system specifications, including depictions of architecture using modeling (MBSE/UAFML); The SRD, ICD, Test Strategy and TEMP along with other documents for sources sought and solicitation.
• Translate DoD user requirements into system requirements for designing, developing, testing and evaluating systems and subsystems using USAF and DoD approved acquisition methods.
• Complete and support requirements definition and analysis, architecture design, implementation, integration, verification and validation, transition, decision analysis, requirements management, risk management, interface management, and configuration management.
• Provide system/program engineering, technical support and technical training to support programs/initiatives, including but not limited to: acquisition, development, integration, sustainment, continued evolution, deployment/fielding and installation, and operations oversight.
• Perform market research and trade studies to assess current and future systems to ensure they meet mission needs/requirements. Conduct, define, and evaluate system cost, schedule, and technical performance.
• Perform reviews, studies (including root cause analysis), audits, evaluations and analyses and provide technical recommendations to the Government.
• Conduct engineering performance, effectiveness, cost effectiveness, cost performance, life cycle cost, producibility, reliability and maintainability, risk and scheduling trade-off studies.
• Prepare technical documents that define, specify, and recommend system/subsystem characteristics. Prepares management reports and conducts technical presentations for planning, implementation and corrective action using application of engineering economy principles.
• Perform program reviews to evaluate alternative proposed plans, systems engineering programs, design and test results to ensure that subsystem and system performance is achieved IAW program specifications.
• Support formal trade studies based on engineering performance, effectiveness, cost effectiveness, cost performance, life cycle cost, productivity, reliability, maintainability, risk, and schedule.
• Provide technical recommendations and support services, including reviews, studies, audits, evaluations and analyses, scientific and procedural guidance, documentation, technical analysis, and support of associated engineering IPTs.
• Provide proposal analysis support services that compare and quantify proposed systems, components, approaches for technical feasibility, compatibility, and cost effectiveness.
• Assist with material solution analysis, technology, engineering, and manufacturing development, production and deployment, and operation and support.
• Support engineering technical and technical management processes associated with version/configuration control, to include: a) Requirements definition and analysis; b) Architecture design, implementation, integration, verification, validation, transition, decision analysis, technical planning, technical assessment; c) Requirements management, risk management, configuration management, technical data management, and interface management.
• Assist with planning and execution of technical reviews and assessments, e.g., System Requirements Review, Technology Readiness Assessment, as well as associated documentation development, e.g., Systems Engineering Plan, Risk Management Plan, that are an inherent part of the activities and processes listed above.
