Systems Engineer-Assistant Staff - MIT Lincoln Laboratory
Lexington, MA
About the Job
The Systems Engineering Group develops space, airborne, and terrestrial prototypes with innovative solutions to challenging national security problems. Our teams handle most of the large prototype systems developed by the Laboratory, including space payloads and satellites for sensing and communication, and airborne and ground-based systems. Example projects include satellite sensors, space-based and ground-based laser communications systems, airborne laser radar, imaging systems on both manned and unmanned aircraft, and small satellites.
Our engineers ensure that all the components of a system work together to achieve the desired results. We do systems engineering across the complete project life-cycle, from trade studies, architecture development, requirements development and flow down to subsystems, hardware and software co-design, risk reduction testing, assembly, integration, and test, with demonstration and initial operations. Our staff have broad expertise across multiple scientific and engineering disciplines including astrophysics, aerospace, mechanical, optical, electrical, avionics and software engineering.
We are seeking a Systems Engineer for a variety of programs. Hands-on team-based experience and a highly skilled engineering background is desirable. Experience developing systems with integrated hardware and software engineering is helpful, as is knowledge of digital engineering tools such as Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) tools.
