- Analyse and understand internal and external customer requirements and translate them into system-level requirements and technical solutions.
- Break down system requirements into subsystem and module requirements and establish corresponding design requirements.
- Develop technical concepts and system designs appropriate to customer and project needs, considering cost, time, quality, performance and technical feasibility.
- Perform and/or assess system-level analyses, including performance, radiation, structural, EMC, reliability, FDIR and HW/FPGA/SW interaction analyses.
- Coordinate development activities with other teams and disciplines to ensure complete and intended implementation of the system.
- Plan and execute your own activities, monitor progress against schedule and budget, and raise awareness of risks and blocking points.
- Support bidding and proposal activities through technical descriptions, concept work, cost and schedule estimates and risk and opportunity assessments.
- Contribute to continuous improvement of products, technologies, processes and ways of working, challenging established solutions where appropriate.
- Interact with customers, suppliers and external stakeholders within your area of responsibility and provide technical know-how to support successful project execution.
- Maintain and develop system-level documentation and ensure compliance with established development processes and standards.
Most important outputs:
- Robust and efficient system solutions that meet customer and project requirements.
- Successful delivery of system engineering activities within agreed scope, quality, schedule and budget.
- Continuous development of products, technologies and engineering methods.
