The Systems Engineer III leads the development, definition, and maintenance of system level requirements and documentation throughout the product lifecycle. This role ensures that customer needs are accurately translated into system specifications, and that verification and validation activities confirm compliance with those requirements. The Engineer III collaborates across engineering disciplines to support system architecture decisions, contributes to test strategy development, and participates in technical design reviews to ensure alignment with product objectives.

The ideal candidate is a hands-on engineer who treats formal systems engineering artifacts (DVPR, DFMEA, ICDs) as tools to drive design, development, and testing, working directly and collaboratively with engineering teams.

Major Responsibilities

• Gathers, captures, writes and maintains customer needs and system level requirements

• Owns the Design Verification Plan & Report (DVPR), using it to drive design, development, and test decisions rather than as a compliance artifact

• Reviews results and evidence to establish if the system requirements have been met

• Provides inputs to the systems test strategy and supports test schedule

• Works across engineering functions to define the system/product strategy

• Coordinates and participates in technical designs and reviews

• Leads DFMEA development and applies its findings to drive design improvements and risk-based verification

• Contributes hands-on to design and development, including firmware development and debugging, PCB bring-up and debugging, and mechanical and thermal design

• Creates and maintains block and boundary diagrams, system inputs, and outputs via an Interface Control Document

• Owns system level documentation and maintains it throughout the product lifecycle

• Makes key decisions during the design phase of the project using established methods and procedures and explains those decisions to a broader team

• Identifies and analyzes risk and opportunities on a project providing context, probability, consequences, thresholds, priorities, risk action and status, and a plan of action

• Communicates risks and opportunities to the broader team seeking inputs, and guidance from subject matter experts as required

• Supports product development plans in delivery of on-schedule, on-cost, on-quality, compliant solutions

Minimum Job Requirements
