We are seeking an experienced System Engineer with deep expertise in Electronic Warfare (EW) mission systems to lead in developing technical requirements and system architecture s for CACI product development supporting critical US Government and foreign military programs. This role demands a unique blend of software-centric systems engineering, operational EW domain knowledge, and the ability to decompose complex system requirements across multidisciplinary teams
Key Responsibilities
Requirements Development & Management
• Establish and maintain system baselines including functional, performance, and interface requirements
• Lead requirements definition through evaluation of customer high-level system requirements and capability need statements with customer and engineering team technical interactions.
• Manage requirements traceability from mission needs through verification and validation
• Coordinate solutions across multiple physical locations and organizations.
EW Mission Systems Engineering
• Apply deep understanding of EW operational concepts, tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) to translate mission needs into technical requirements
• Define system behavior for EW functions including threat detection, identification, geolocation, jamming, and countermeasures
• Support development of Concepts of Operations (CONOPS) and mission thread analysis for EW systems
• Collaborate with internal and external stakeholders to refine requirements
Technical Architecture & Decomposition
• Develop and document system and software architectures that meet EW mission requirements and operational constraints
• Decompose functional requirements to software, hardware, RF, signal processing, and other engineering disciplines
• Define and document interfaces and data flows between subsystems
• Lead Functional and Physical Architecture development and allocation
Cross-Functional Technical Leadership
• Serve as primary technical interface between system-level engineering and specialized engineering teams
• Facilitate requirements understanding across software engineering, signal processing, RF engineering, hardware engineering, and integration and operational teams
• Conduct technical reviews and ensure subsystem designs satisfy allocated requirements
• Identify and resolve requirements conflicts and technical risks across disciplines
Required Qualifications
Technical Skills
• Software-Centric Systems Engineering: Strong background in software architecture, software requirements specification, and software-intensive system design
• Software Development Lifecycle: Understanding of Agile, DevSecOps , and CI/CD practices in DoD environments
EW Domain Expertise
• 5+ years of experience in EW systems development, integration, or operations , or equivalent system complexity.
• Understanding of EW operational disciplines with working knowledge of how mission requirements translate to system capabilities
• Knowledge of RF propagation, antenna systems, receiver/transmitter architectures, and signal processing
• Understanding of test and evaluation methodologies applied to EW systems
Systems Engineering Fundamentals
• 7+ years of systems engineering experience with at least 3 years in requirements development
• Demonstrated ability to decompose system requirements to software, hardware, and firmware subsystems
• Experience with verification and validation planning and execution
• Experience documenting a nd maintain ing system engineering artifacts including:
• System architecture descriptions and diagrams
• Interface control documents (ICDs)
• Requirements specifications and traceability matrices
• Data flow and sequence diagrams
• Trade study and technical analysis experience
Clearance & Education
• BS in Systems Engineering, Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related technical field
• US Citizenship and ability to obtain TS/SCI clearance
Desired Qualifications
• Active TS/SCI security clearance preferred
• INCOSE CSEP or ESEP certification
• Familiarity with open systems architecture standards (CMOSS, SOSA, FACE)
• Understanding of software testing frameworks and automated test development
• Familiarity with formal requirements and design reviews (SRR, PDR, CDR, TRR, e tc. )
Work Environment
• Hybrid/On-site position supporting Florham Park, NJ or Westminster, CO
• Travel to other CACI locations and/or customer sites as necessary (travel requirement is typically 0 - 15%)
• Fast-paced, collaborative engineering environment
