Peraton is a next-generation national security company that drives missions of consequence spanning the globe and extending to the farthest reaches of the galaxy. As the world's leading mission capability integrator and transformative enterprise IT provider, we deliver trusted, highly differentiated solutions and technologies to protect our nation and allies. We operate at the critical nexus between traditional and nontraditional threats across all domains: land, sea, space, air, and cyberspace. Our employees solve the most daunting challenges our customers face every day, serving as a valued partner to essential government agencies and supporting every branch of the U.S. armed forces.
Join Peraton in advancing the safety, efficiency, and modernization of the National Airspace System (NAS) through the FAA's Brand New Air Traffic Control System (BNATCS) contract. As a trusted partner to the Federal Aviation Administration, Peraton helps deliver the systems and services that keep our nation's skies safe and connected.
We are seeking an innovative Test Automation Engineer to play a pivotal role in how aviation systems are validated, modernized, and delivered. In this high-impact position, you will provide technical leadership and subject matter expertise to ensure FAA systems undergo rigorous, automated testing across development and modernization lifecycles. This role offers a unique opportunity to work at the intersection of automation, DevSecOps, and mission-critical aviation systems, while gaining deep exposure to federal programs that directly impact the safety and reliability of the National Airspace System.
At Peraton, you won't just support the mission—you'll define it. This role places you at the center of aviation modernization efforts at one of the FAA's most important technical hubs. You will influence architecture, mentor teams, and help define how secure, scalable systems are built in a regulated, safety-critical environment. Your work will strengthen the safety of the U.S. aviation system, support nationally significant modernization initiatives, and place you at the forefront of mission-driven federal engineering.
This position is on-site at the Tech Center near Egg Harbor Township, NJ.
