- Create requirements, specifications, test plans and procedures for systems with emphasis on sensor technology, and system integration and test. Develop flow down specifications for systems and subsystems.
- Participate in project planning with measurable milestone and regular progress reporting.
- Perform range and analyses and lead/contribute to systems development and thermal/infrared image sensor selection for the product groups.
- Create and present technical papers, reports, analysis, and proposals to both internal and external personnel.
- Provide interdisciplinary design & product support. Provide systems engineering support and coordination for ensuring mechanical, software, and electrical design conformance to requirements of the overall system. As a key member of the development team, ensure that the design implementation will meet specifications. Responsible for relevant systems engineering portions of the New Product Introduction (NPI) process, Design for Manufacturability (DFM), and support of First Article Inspection (FAI) efforts, as requested.
- Responsible for leading and supporting extensive laboratory testing and qualification efforts for new and existing systems and thermal/infrared sensor products. Develop all necessary test plans and procedures, perform data collection, analyze data, and document results.
- Good working knowledge and experience in thermal/infrared engineering sciences. Systems analysis, alignment techniques. Working knowledge of ZEMAX and other lens design software is preferred.
- Support FPA engineering activities (both design verification and production product support). Some background and working knowledge of IR detectors (InSb, MCT, uncooled microbolometers, InGaAs, QWIP, SLS, etc.) to include NIR, SWIR, MWIR and LWIR bands. Experience with color and low-light image sensors.
- Prefer some experience and general working knowledge of Solid-State Laser systems (i.e., pointers, illuminators, range finders and designators). Willingness and ability to conduct basic lab measurements of these devices and sensor payloads.
- Support Business Development and Sales in the areas of new customer requirements analysis, proposal writing, sensor performance modeling and fielding technical inquiries.
- Provide systems engineering support to manufacturing, production and customer service groups, as needed, in support of existing products. Take a leading role in troubleshooting technical issues.
