Northrop Grumman Space Systems—Launch and Missile Defense Systems offers a unique career opportunity for a Sr Principal Engineer Systems—Systems Engineer Link-16 Interface SME (25-087). This role, based in Colorado Springs, CO., or Huntsville, AL., will allow you to join a team of diverse individuals and work on the Command and Control, Battle Management, and Communications (C2BMC) program, a vital operational system that integrates the Missile Defense System. Position Overview: The Command and Control, Battle Management, and Communications (C2BMC) program integrates the Missile Defense System. It is a vital operational system that enables the U.S. president, secretary of defense, and combatant commanders at strategic, regional, and operational levels to systematically plan ballistic missile defense operations, to see the battle develop collectively, and to dynamically manage designated networked sensors and weapons systems to achieve global and regional mission objectives. C2BMC supports a layered missile defense capability that enables an optimized response to threats of all ranges in all phases of flight. C2BMC is the force multiplier that globally and regionally networks integrate, synchronizing autonomous sensor and weapon systems and operations to optimize performance. C2BMC is integral to all system ground and flight tests, which verify and exercise all current and future missile defense system capabilities. This position will be assigned to the C2BMC Systems Engineering Team within SEIT. The Link-16 Interface SME / Engineer is a Systems Engineer and will sometimes be called to support non-interface systems engineering activities. The Link-16 SME and Interface Engineer will lead in authoring the development of ICDs and IDDs, especially Link-16 related. The Link-16 Interface SME / Engineer is considered the Subject Matter Expert (SME) for C2BMC. Attend interface working group meetings with MDA customers and representatives of assigned external element engineering organizations, as well as support program integration and test-related efforts for the associated interface. Essential Functions: Authoring Link-16 ICDs and IDDs and providing expertise to the interface developers within the software team on the integration of Link-16 messaging. Establishing new interfaces between external elements, including sensors and other Command and Control Systems. Must ensure the ICDs and IDDs created to meet the program's requirements. Expected to develop various behavioral diagrams to understand and document the requirements. Create requirements captured in DOORS and sufficient detail to provide a clear understanding to the implementation teams. Primary responsibility will be developing and updating multiple Interface Control Documents (ICDs) and Interface Design Documents (IDDs). May also be assigned to support other interface engineers in developing ICDs for other BMDS Elements: Support requirements engineering. Use case development. Logical architecture modeling tasks as SE department tasking requires. Support spiral leadership to ensure interface artifacts and system assessment tasks required for the assigned sensor interface are completed when required. Must have significant experience in authoring Link-16 ICDs and IDDs that are DID compliant and to DoD Standards.
