Senior Systems Engineer - Odyssey Systems Consulting Group, Ltd.

Odyssey Systems has a thrilling new Maritime Domain Awareness project that requires a dynamic team of engineers to design, build, test, and deliver security and surveillance vehicles and platforms for the Egyptian Navy. This opportunity allows you to build upon your current experience while working with the latest sea-based surveillance technologies. This is an exciting new opportunity for a Senior Systems Engineer with specialty skill experience in one or more of the following areas:system design, integration, and production.

As a Senior Systems Engineer, you will perform a range of engineering tasks across multiple disciplines. The systems engineering team will lead the design, integration, test, and delivery of multiple security and surveillance sensors networked across multiple platforms working together to detect, identify, and track objects of interest. You will provide systems engineering and technical support to mechanical, structural, electrical, and test engineers and foster a team environment to perform analysis, develop requirements, define problems, and create and implement solutions for complex problems.

**Availability of position is contingent upon contract award**

You will report directly to the Chief Engineer and become an integral part of the engineering team. You may lead a team of other engineers depending on the assigned task and will brief the status of your teams’ tasks during the daily stand ups. You and your team will be responsible for the research, design, implementation, and integration of sensors, platforms, computer systems, and network solutions as guided by the systems requirements documents. Design and integration work to develop the first article will be documented as part of a greater Technical Data Package. The team will thoroughly test the first article of each system to gain approval for production. As a Senior Systems Engineer, you will lead production efforts, examining for proper assembly and consistency, ensuring the systems meet the “as-built” design documents, and are documented in accordance to program requirements. Once the systems are produced, they will be delivered to Egypt for installation, configuration, and final testing. Sensor and platforms will be installed below the sea, on land, and on land-based communication towers. 

To accomplish the goals above, you should be good at analyzing program and user needs, applying principles and techniques of computer science, engineering, physics, and mathematical analysis, and providing attention to detail throughout the engineering process.
