The Interface Engineer will work with his leadership to ensure the resolution of issues and challenges that may be encountered.
The Interface Engineer will ensure that ICDs and IDDs created are to the appropriate standards required of the program.
It is expected that the Interface Lead develop various behavioral diagrams to understand and document the requirements and create the ICDs/IDDs. The Interface Engineer will create requirements, captured them in DOORS at sufficient detail to provide clear understanding to the implementation teams. The Interface Engineer will develop behavioral diagrams to understand the requirements and behavior of the interface. The Interface Engineer's primary responsibility will be developing and updating of multiple Interface Control Documents (ICDs) and Interface Design Documents.
Successful candidate will attend interface working group meetings with MDA customer and representatives of assigned external element engineering organization as well as provide support to program integration and test related efforts for the associated interface.
Successful candidate may also be assigned to support: other interface engineers in developing ICDs for other BMDS Elements, support requirements engineering, use case development, and logical architecture modeling tasks as SE department tasking requires.
Successful candidate will support spiral leadership to assure interface artifacts and system assessment tasks required for the assigned sensor interface are completed when required. Technical Skills Required: Candidate must possess an understanding of systems engineering process and principles.
