Responsibilities
Mission Systems Engineer - Level 3
Fort Worth, Texas
Description:Lockheed Martin Aeronautics. Be More Than You Can Imagine.
Advanced Electronic Warfare (EW) capabilities enable F-35 pilots to locate and track enemy forces, jam radars and disrupt attacks with unparalleled effectiveness. Advanced avionics give the pilot real-time access to battle space information with 360-degree coverage and an unparalleled ability to dominate the tactical environment. Data collected by sensors on the F-35 will immediately be shared with commanders at sea, in the air or on the ground, providing an instantaneous, high-fidelity view of ongoing operations - making the F-35 a formidable force multiplier while enhancing coalition operations. This system allows F-35 pilots to reach well-defended targets and suppress enemy radars.
The F-35 Mission Data organization is in need of a Mission Systems engineer with an understanding of EW and RF principles to help deploy the Common Reprogramming Tool (CRT) to our customers. The CRT will effectively provide our customers with a more efficient, robust approach to rapidly reprogram Mission Data Files (MDFs) for F-35 mission operations. The selected candidate will be responsible for designing capabilities that will be integrated into the CRT and working closely with Software Engineers to ensure implementation meets predefined acceptance criteria, managing the verification approach of these capabilities via lab and integration testing, and ensuring all risks or issues within their work execution are well understood across the team. The selected candidate will also be responsible for export of design documentation related to CRT and CRT exportability. Key areas of responsibility are: MBSE Design & Implementation, Cross-Functional leadership, Integration & Test, Export Control, and Software Development.
Candidate must be able to obtain a clearance and must process for a company-sponsored interim secret prior to start.
A level 3 employee Typically has 5 - 9 years of professional experience.
**Must be a US Citizen. This position is located at a facility that requires special access.**
