Job Description

Take the lead in shaping the future of next-gen airborne networks. We're seeking a Senior Test Engineer to define and manage the full test lifecycle of a critical military airborne system release scheduled from FY 2025 to 2027. You'll oversee testing from bench-level verification in controlled lab settings through to full-scale operational testing on multiple aircraft platforms.

Core Responsibilities :

Strategic Test Planning

  • Develop and manage a comprehensive test strategy that ensures seamless integration across hardware, software, and operations elements.
  • Establish and manage test milestones, entrance / exit criteria, and requirement traceability within the program schedule.

System Integration Lab (SIL) Management

  • Design and maintain test environments that accurately emulate real-world power, data, and environmental conditions.
  • Implement automated test solutions using tools like Python, Jenkins, Robot Framework, Ansible, and IXIA / Spirent.
  • Developmental & Operational Testing

  • Lead all phases of ground and flight testing, including test planning, hazard analysis, and safety documentation.
  • Act as the primary engineer during flight tests, managing real-time data collection, analysis, and troubleshooting.
  • Analysis & Reporting

  • Analyze test results covering latency, throughput, encryption performance, and system readiness metrics.
  • Deliver after-action reviews, deficiency reports, and corrective recommendations to leadership and cross-functional teams.
  • Continuous Integration & DevSecOps Alignment

  • Embed automated testing in the DevSecOps pipeline to validate builds every 90 days.
  • Promote early-stage test involvement by integrating validation practices into design and engineering phases.
  • Team Mentorship & Stakeholder Engagement

  • Mentor junior engineers and coordinate with government and platform representatives.
  • Align testing with regulatory and certification bodies including NSA, DISA, and airworthiness authorities.
  • Required Qualifications :

  • U.S. Citizenship required for security clearance compliance.
  • Bachelor's degree in Aerospace, Electrical, Computer Engineering, or a similar field; Master's preferred.
  • 15+ years of experience in test engineering for complex DoD systems, including full cycle from lab testing to flight operations.
  • Active TS / SCI security clearance required.
  • Proficient in test automation, data analysis, and statistical tools (MATLAB, Pandas, JMP, etc.).
  • Knowledge of relevant standards such as MIL-STD-810 / 461 or RCC 324 / 125-15.
  • Preferred Experience :

  • Familiarity with ABMS, OMS / UCI, CJADC2, or tactical data-link initiatives.
  • Experience with secure communications, encryption systems, and risk management frameworks (e.g., RMF, eMASS).
  • Flight test certifications (USAF TPS graduate, FAA DER, or equivalent).
  • Exposure to Agile methodologies, Model-Based Testing, and systems engineering principles.
  • Why Consider This Role?

    Enjoy opportunities to work on high-impact national defense programs while benefiting from relocation to regions known for low cost of living, outdoor recreation, vibrant cultural scenes, and accessible transportation to major cities.
