Whether aloft in the skies aboard a fighter jet protecting the skies or an airborne surveillance platform monitoring developments on the ground, our Resilient Navigation Solutions mission area is responsible for providing advanced capabilities for multiple types of tactical aircraft and other platforms. We provide the most advanced systems to navigate in challenging environments and identify and discriminate friendly and foe objects. With our systems, warfighters know where they are going and what they are going to do when they get there.
The Resilient Navigation Systems product line is responsible for providing U.S. and coalition forces with accurate GPS navigation capability to successfully achieve their missions—free of disruption and jamming. GNS solutions equip manned aircraft, unmanned systems, precision weapons, and ground systems. These products include anti-jam systems, integrated GPS/INS navigators, high performance Selective Availability Anti-Spoof Module (SAASM) receivers, and Military Code (M-Code) receivers.
For the Systems Engineering Integration & Test (SEIT) department, the Lead Systems Engineer (LSE) position works across disciplines and domains (Software, Systems Engineering, Hardware and Systems Security) and with the customer. The LSE works with each discipline to define specifications, translate these to domain/discipline requirements (design, performance and interface), identify Technical Performance Measures (TPMs) and Key Performance Parameters (KPPs), and lead Integration and Test (I&T) and Verification and Validation (V&V) activities to insure performance per requirements. The Resilient Navigation (RNAV) SEIT Department supports the development of new capabilities, the LSE will interface with the Chief Engineer (CE), and Program Office/Program Manager for these advanced system solutions during the Definition, Development, Integration and Test, Production, and Product Sell Off phases.
The Resilient Navigation Systems Engineering department is looking for a GPS Military-Receiver Systems Architect. The Systems Architect will lead the development of an architecture that defines the system and system of systems which supports the operational activities of the GPS user equipment segment mission. The architecture developed will describe the system and the standards that drive interoperability. The system architect will serve as a catalyst for clarifying and describing the customer’s strategic vision in M-Code implementation of GPS Receivers. In addition, the system architect will support integration of customer’s diverse legacy and future systems, while providing continuous improvement to system quality.
The Systems Architect works with each engineering discipline to define specifications, translate these to domain/discipline requirements (design, performance, and interface), and identifies Technical Performance Measures (TPMs) and Key Performance Parameters (KPPs).
