BAE Systems is seeking an experienced Lead Engineer to support our work as a prime contractor on a high-profile U.S. Navy weapon system. This positions is responsible for leading a multi-disciplinary team of engineers in developing and implementing a well-planned systems engineering approach to requirements definition, architecture and interface definition, system integration, verification, and test for current and future large-scale missile systems. This is a unique opportunity to be part of the team enabling our Nation s technological superiority on strategic missions through development of advanced concepts and initiatives throughout the systems lifecycle.

As a Lead Engineer, you will lead the technical performance of systems engineering, integration, and test functions in support of advanced programs under the direction, and in-collaboration with, Program Management leadership. In this role, you will provide engineering and scientific leadership in performing technical analysis, trade studies, research, development, and test and evaluation to lead system definition and realization activities, resolve issues, and make recommendations regarding enhanced capabilities. Under your technical leadership, a large team of engineers and scientist (500 ) will utilize data engineering, digital engineering and model-based systems engineering to perform operational concept development, feasibility studies, design, development and evaluation of hardware and software for new designs, modifications, and upgrades of Naval weapon systems and system of systems.

and the U.S. Navy s Strategic Systems Programs (SSP)

Our organization has supported the U.S. Navy s Strategic Systems Programs (SSP) continually since the program s inception in the 1950s. SSP developed the first sea-based, underwater-launched Strategic Weapon System (SWS), a defense system that is truly critical to our national security. For more than six decades, SSP has maintained and upgraded this weapon system and we have been there every step of the way. The sea-based SWS is the ultimate stealthy weapon system and is the first leg of the U.S. nuclear triad. With over 70% of our nation s nuclear arsenal its importance to maintaining world peace cannot be overstated. The development of Columbia, the most advanced nuclear-powered, nuclear-armed submarine ever designed, as well the next D5LE2 weapon system is under way and will begin to be rolled out over the next decade. The Navy projects this system to be operational through 2084, meaning the program will have a total life span of more than 120 years. This is a unique program and BAE Systems employees on this program understand they are part of an important legacy.

As a decades long sole source partner on multiple contracts on behalf of our customer, our program has remarkable stability and is concurrently experiencing significant growth. Combined, these factors provide ample opportunity for professional growth and development for capable and talented individuals on our team.
