Systems Engineer

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in Tennessee.

📋 Description

• Create and document high-level requirements for new or proposed projects, converting stakeholder needs into technical specifications.

• Assist in the expansion of high-level requirements into traceable lower-level Systems, Structures, and Components (SSCs) requirements with well-defined parent-child relationships.

• Implement and manage requirements in systems integration tools such as Visure, DOORS, and DOORS Next Gen.

• Set and uphold requirements quality standards, ensuring they are measurable, testable, traceable, and complete.

• Define and document interfaces between systems, ensuring both sides of each interface detail performance parameters (flow rates, pressures, temperatures, data protocols, etc.).

• Coordinate interface requirements across various facility systems (electrical, mechanical, controls, safety, etc.).

• Produce and critically assess technical documents (Design Interface Requirements, Engineering Design Specifications, Design Verification Records).

• Assist project leads in translating operational needs and safety requirements into equipment design specifications.

• Collaborate with quality assurance to guarantee traceability throughout design, fabrication, and testing phases.

• Support project leads in the identification, monitoring, and documentation of risks.

• Help develop cost models for proposed projects based on the scope of requirements.

• Establish and maintain systems engineering standards, templates, and best practices.

• Provide training to engineers on requirements quality principles and systems integration tools.

• Apply model-based systems engineering (MBSE) approaches in projects from concept through detailed design.

⛳️ Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in engineering or a STEM discipline from a U.S.-based ABET-accredited university with a minimum of 3 years of relevant experience, or a Master's degree with 1-2 years of model-based systems engineering (MBSE) experience.

• Familiarity with NQA-1, ISO 9001, or equivalent quality control systems.

• Understanding of design control principles and formal change management processes.

• Experience in a hardware-based industry that adheres to strict workflow and quality assurance standards (nuclear, aerospace, automotive, medical devices, or similar).

• Proven experience working with suppliers/vendors to define technical specifications and assess design responses.

• Knowledge of requirements hierarchy and flow-down processes.

• Understanding of verification methods and their applications.

• Familiarity with interface management principles.

• Experience in requirements, traceability, and configuration management.

• Demonstrated experience in developing technical requirements for hardware systems (mechanical, electrical, controls, instrumentation).

• Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings, P&IDs, electrical schematics, and control system documentation.

• Must be able to pass a drug screening.

• Must be a U.S. Citizen.

• Ability to obtain and maintain a security clearance is preferred.
