Description

Position Description: Systems Engineer

This role requires a versatile Engineer to provide comprehensive technical and systems engineering support for Electronic Warfare (EW) systems in the Expeditionary Electronic Warfare Division (MXQ) at NSWC Crane. This position bridges the gap between complex engineering operations and technical communication --translating system designs, test data, and integration efforts into actionable, highly accurate documentation for Government and technical stakeholders.

Key Duties & Responsibilities:

• Provide comprehensive engineering support for EW systems, subsystems, hardware, and software.
• Drive requirements definition, allocation, traceability, system design, and engineering analysis.
• Develop systems integration documentation, including interface requirements, Interface Control Documents (ICDs), data flows, and communication boundaries.
• Translate complex technical data into clear, concise, and accurate documentation for Government audiences.
• Author, review, and maintain technical reports, manuals, Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), and Technical Data Packages (TDPs).
• Collaborate with cross-functional engineers and Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) to capture technical details, document engineering decisions, and justify recommendations.
• Review all technical manuals, training materials, and documentation for accuracy, grammar, formatting, and usability.
• Support test planning, execution, and data review for lab, field, and system-level testing.
• Document troubleshooting results, deficiency reports, test findings, corrective actions, and lessons learned.
• Generate comprehensive post-test documentation and engineering judgment inputs.
• Assist with maintaining TDPs, including technical drawings, specifications, repair standards, and ECPs.
• Maintain organized, version-controlled documentation libraries and technical records.
• Support Configuration Management (CM) by tracking changes and ensuring documentation matches current system baselines.
• Coordinate deliverables with test, logistics, quality, cybersecurity, and program management teams.
• Prepare and deliver technical briefings and presentations for program, design, and test reviews.
• Ensure all work products are marked, handled, and stored in strict accordance with CUI, OPSEC, and security guidelines.
