Job description

Essential Job Functions:

  • Strategy & Planning
  • Build the Program‑level Test & Evaluation Master Plan (TEMP) that links Nomad hardware, Smith software, and Watch ops‑support elements to CJADC2 mission threads and MR 2 exit criteria.
  • Define DT/OT entrance & exit gates, traceability matrices, and milestone metrics within the Integrated Master Schedule.
  • System Integration Laboratory (SIL) Leadership
  • Design lab architectures replicating platform power, data, and environmental interfaces; oversee daily ops, configuration control, and security accreditation.
  • Implement automated regression suites (Python/Robot Framework, Jenkins, Ansible, IXIA/Spirent) covering functional, performance, and cyber‑resilience tests.
  • Developmental & Operational Test Execution
  • Lead ground and flight‑test events: draft test cards, hazard analyses, Interim Authorizations To Test (IATT) , and Safety‑of‑Flight packages.
  • Serve as lead flight‑test engineer or ground‑test conductor, capturing telemetry, logs, and spectrum traces; troubleshoot anomalies in real time.
  • Data Analysis & Reporting
  • Perform statistical analysis of throughput, latency, crypto handshake times, SWaP‑C impacts, and mission‑effect metrics.
  • Produce concise after‑action reports, deficiency reports (DRs), and recommendations for corrective action to IPTs and senior USAF stakeholders.
  • Continuous Integration / DevSecOps
  • Integrate test automation hooks into the PG DevSecOps pipeline; ensure every 90‑day Smith build passes gated SIL tests before promotion.
  • Champion a “shift‑left” testing mindset—embedding verification earlier in design reviews and digital engineering artifacts.
  • Mentorship & Collaboration
  • Guide junior test engineers, platform SPO test reps, and Government civilians on best practices for agile T&E.
  • Interface with NSA, DISA, and flight‑safety authorities to align test artifacts with certification needs (ATO, crypto, airworthiness).

Required Skills:

Due to the sensitivity of customer related requirements, U.S. Citizenship is required.

B.S. in Aerospace, Electrical, Computer Engineering, or related discipline (M.S. a plus) and 15+ years of DoD system‑of‑systems test engineering, including lab‑to‑flight progression.

Active TS/SCI clearance.

Proven leadership of large‑scale DT/OT efforts for avionics, communications, or C2 systems.

Hands‑on with test automation frameworks, instrumentation, and data‑analysis tools (MATLAB, Pandas, JMP, or similar).

Familiarity with MIL‑STD‑810/461, RCC 324/125‑15, or comparable environmental and EMI/EMC standards.
