What You'll Do:

Product Ownership

• Serve as subject matter expert (SME) on product configuration and usage, and the different ways the product is utilized by the end user.
• Perform root cause analysis and investigation during product development, manufacturing, or customer field support operations.
• Support development and maintenance of various testing procedures, scripts, and automation for use in product verification and manufacturing QA testing.

System Architecture

• Identify the customer's problems and needs by performing stakeholder and use-case analyses.
• Decompose stakeholder requirements and use cases to translate customer needs into a system architecture using Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) tools.
• Develop logical architectures that capture systems via object-oriented and modular design principles.
• Create state machine diagrams that demonstrate how a system should behave based on external signals ("black box" definition).
• Use MBSE to drive and ensure traceability between customer needs, product requirements, engineering designs, and validation procedures.

Product Verification and Validation

• Develop testing strategy informed by product architecture, requirements, and system definition.
• Manage product testing plans and procedures, ensuring capture of cross-functional testing efforts, and generation of searchable test reports which includes details of test setup, parameters, and pass/fail criteria.
• Coordinate with external vendors to execute product certifications such as MIL-STD-810, MIL-STD-461, and CE compliance.

Edge Network and Compute Technology Expert

• Research new test equipment to improve test effectiveness and reduce quality escapes, giving our customers solutions they can trust.
• Identify "commercial off the shelf" (COTS) products that could be integrated into products or proof of concept demonstrations for obtaining customer feedback.
• Maintain relevant vendor relationships to stay abreast of technological advances that can be applied to DTECH's product domain.

What We're Looking For:

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in system engineering or a related discipline, with 2+ years of relevant experience or equivalent demonstrated performance (i.e., US Veteran with operational experience in baseband communications equipment).
• US citizenship and eligibility for security clearance.
• Understand the Problem:Help us solve our customer's biggest problems by thinking like they do. Give them everything they need, and nothing they don't.
• Modular Design:Create flexible architectures that allow many design options. Develop requirements that dictate product behavior, not the implementation.
• Interdisciplinary Collaboration:Work effectively across a wider team of diverse engineering expertise.
• Efficiency:Work to meet project deadlines and raise any issues preventing this to your manager.
• Attention to detail:Ensure requirements traceability from the test procedure to system requirements. Drive thorough and complete product testing that flows from a deep understanding of product definition and warfighter usage. Ensure we find the product defects before a customer does.
