As a Terrestrial SIGINT Systems Engineer, you will support a customer terrestrial sensors team in tracking, monitoring and facilitating planning for the deployment, upgrade, and replacement of Terrestrial SIGINT collection and processing systems. You will:

• Capture and document the requirements for the new and updated systems as well as coordinate and track the sensor projects from requirements, analysis of alternatives, sensor buildout, deployment, and installation, testing and transition to operations.
• Participate in numerous meetings, working groups, and integrated product teams, product reviews, and status meetings to monitor the systems engineering plans, development, and deployment of space and ground processing systems.
• Work closely with government Systems Engineers to support the reengineering of the existing SIGINT ground architecture to facilitate the elimination of collection/processing stovepipes and replace the deprecated systems with collections/processing systems that support automation, dynamic tasking, multi-access cross-cueing and orchestration.
• Produce system engineering and technical documentation, develop master schedules, and support validation and verification activities.
• Provide exercise support as needed to assist in the development and testing of new capabilities.
• Serve as liaison to critical personnel in monitoring the state of project development milestones.

• Knowledge of National SIGINT technologies, capabilities, their associated system architectural components (i.e. space systems, ground stations, ground processing systems), and knowledge of the national collection requirements prioritization system and associated processes is critical.
• Experience with SIGINT data flows and what is needed to get specific data sets to different SIGINT data bases.
• Strong Project Management Skills.
• An understanding of the policy constraints associated with the conduct of lawful SIGINT operations is also critical to success.
• Must have Strong written and verbal communications skills.
