Principal Systems Engineer (Onsite)

About the Team

Raytheon, managed by Collins Aerospace, is a leader in technologically advanced and intelligent solutions for the global aerospace and defense industry. The Precision Navigation business within the Mission Systems division is growing rapidly. Our Systems Engineering Center, based at Aberdeen Proving Ground, is responsible for supporting system architecture development, CONOPS development, system trade studies, and requirements analysis. We lead the design of combat Identification of Friend or Foe (IFF) solutions for air defense, air control, and self-protection missions in both airborne and ground applications.

We are looking for experienced Systems Engineers to join a dynamic team where your impact stretches across the world. Our Mission Systems team helps civilian, military, and government customers complete their most complex missions. By joining us, you will play a critical part in ensuring our customers succeed today while anticipating their needs for tomorrow.

About the Role

As a Principal Engineer, you will work closely with an Integrated Program Team (IPT) in a Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) environment to develop system requirements. You will analyze and document system behaviors to meet emerging needs using MBSE tools and principles. This role involves proposing, implementing, verifying, and delivering systems that require deep expertise in hardware, software, and system development.

You will be a proven and effective leader driving technical integrity within the engineering team's products and behaviors while ensuring program execution to plan. While general supervision is provided by a designated supervisor, you will exercise functional guidance to less experienced engineers and may occasionally supervise technicians and clerical assistants. This is an onsite role at our Aberdeen Proving Ground facility; relocation is not provided.
