ABOUT THE JOB
You will own the requirements verification traceability matrix for a maritime autonomous vehicle: the thread that runs from a program requirement through subsystem allocation to the specific test or analysis that proves it was met. Reporting to the Systems Engineering Integration and Test Lead you keep that thread intact while the design underneath it keeps changing.
By the time this role starts the requirements baseline and the test campaign will both be in motion. The gap this fills is between them. When a requirement changes someone has to know which verification items just became invalid; when a test closes someone has to confirm it actually closed what it claimed. That is this seat.
WHAT YOULL DO
- Own the requirements verification traceability matrix end to end
- Maintain allocation from program requirements through subsystem specifications
- Define verification method for each requirement: test analysis inspection or demonstration
- Track verification status and report closure against program milestones
- Run change impact analysis when requirements or interfaces move
- Write and review requirements for testability not just correctness
- Work with the MBSE engineer so traceability lives in the model rather than beside it
- Work with the T&E Lead so test evidence maps cleanly to verification items
- Prepare verification artifacts for design reviews and customer milestones
- Travel up to 15% to test sites and operational locations
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
- Bachelors degree in Systems Engineering Aerospace Engineering Mechanical Engineering Electrical Engineering or equivalent
- 7 years in systems engineering with direct ownership of requirements or verification traceability
- Experience with requirements management tooling (DOORS Jama Polarion or equivalent)
- Experience building or maintaining a verification matrix on a hardware program
- Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. Secret security clearance
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
- Experience with AUV UUV submarine spacecraft or aircraft programs
- Experience with MBSE and SysML particularly requirements traceability inside a model
- Experience supporting formal verification reviews or customer milestone deliveries
- Scripting for traceability reporting and data extraction (Python SQL)
- Experience on a program where the requirements baseline was still being written
