• Review and approve technical documentation, including interface control documents, system specifications, test procedures, integration reports and configuration documentation.
• Ensure configuration management and traceability of mission equipment and vehicle interfaces throughout the project lifecycle.
• Participate in technical reviews with customers, military users, suppliers and internal engineering teams.
• Provide technical leadership to less-experienced engineers and integration technicians.

Profile:

• 7+ years of professional experience in systems integration, vehicle electronics, vetronics, military communications, or a closely related field.
• Engineering degree in Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Telecommunications, Systems Engineering, Mechatronics, Computer Engineering, or equivalent technical experience.
• Demonstrated experience integrating complex electronic and communication systems into vehicles, preferably military or special-purpose vehicles.
