As a Senior Test & Evaluation Engineer, Connected Warfare, you will join the team to lead critical test campaigns for the Army’s Next Generation Command & Control system and other connected warfare products. You will manage end-to-end testing cycles from lab-based hardware-in-the-loop integration to field validation of integrated software, hardware, and network traffic across various nodes. Your daily work involves developing scenario-driven test methods, overseeing Test Readiness Reviews, analyzing performance data, and reporting metrics like coverage and defect closure rates. You will utilize skills in requirements traceability, RF communications, tactical datalinks, and packet-level analysis including latency and jitter. The role addresses the technical challenge of ensuring complex networked command and control systems meet stringent defense standards while providing a decisive advantage for warfighters through robust system integration and performance validation in both lab and field environments.

What you'll do

  • Manage end-to-end test campaigns from lab-based hardware-in-the-loop integration to field validation testing.
  • Develop and execute system integration, developmental, operational, and customer acceptance tests for defense products.
  • Create requirements-based, scenario-driven, and operationally relevant test methods with full traceability.
  • Oversee Test Readiness Reviews (TRRs) and manage test incidents while tracking technical deficiencies.
  • Analyze performance data from lab and field environments to provide actionable insights and formal reports.
  • Represent the engineering team at readiness boards and milestone decision points to ensure safe execution.
  • Define test strategies that ensure hardware and software systems meet stringent DoD standards.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor’s degree in Systems, Electrical, or Computer Engineering (or related discipline).
  • 5+ years of experience in system-level test and evaluation of integrated hardware/software systems.
  • Extensive hands-on experience conducting developmental and operational test events in lab and field environments.
  • Strong background in requirements development, test planning, verification/validation, and traceability management.
  • Familiarity with RF communications, tactical datalinks, and networked C2 systems in DoD settings.
  • Experience with system-level environmental testing including climatic, mechanical, ingress protection, corrosion, and UV testing.
  • Strong background in network and packet level analysis, including packet capture, loss, latency, and jitter.
  • Active or immediately eligible for a U.S. Secret security clearance.
