SAIC is seeking a Senior Systems Engineer to support the U.S. Navy's Conventional Prompt Strike (CPS) program, a top-priority national hypersonic weapon system development effort. The selected candidate will provide independent technical review and assessment of system architecture, interface, and requirements documentation delivered by the program's Lead Systems Integrator (LSI).
As part of the Government's technical support team, you will evaluate the completeness, consistency, traceability, and technical adequacy of LSI deliverables, and prepare clear, actionable comments that support Government decision-making at major milestones and technical reviews.

Job Duties:

Review and assess LSI-developed system architecture products, including system/sub-system architecture descriptions, SysML Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) artifacts.
Evaluate Interface Control Documents (ICDs), Interface Requirements Specifications (IRSs), and Interface Design Descriptions (IDD) for completeness, consistency, and compatibility across system elements.
Analyze system, subsystem, component specifications for clarity, verifiability, and bidirectional traceability to higher-level requirements.
Prepare, track, and adjudicate formal comments using Comment Resolution Matrices (CRMs); support comment resolution meetings with the LSI and Government stakeholders.
Identify technical risks, gaps, ambiguities, and inconsistencies in deliverables and recommend corrective actions.
Support Government preparation for and participation in technical reviews (SRR, PDR, CDR, TRR) by assessing entrance/exit criteria and LSI review materials.
Assess requirements verification approaches and Verification Cross-Reference Matrices (VCRMs).
Support configuration and change management activities, including review of Engineering Change Proposals (ECPs) and requirements change requests for technical impact.
Participate in Interface Control Working Groups (ICWGs) and other technical working groups.
Prepare technical briefings and assessment summaries for Government program leadership.
Collaborate with Government leads, other support contractors, and LSI engineering staff in a professional, objective manner.
