Aircraft Systems Engineer presso Executive Recruiting Group

Description

As a Systems Engineer you will support both design and integration-side Systems Engineering activites ensuring continuity across the aircraft development lifecycle in accordance with ARP4574. This role contributes to requirements definition, architecture development, verification and validation planning, and configuration control, with the focus shifting by program phase. The Systems Engineer will support the DOORS next Generation environment and work closely with design, integration/test certification, and program teams to ensure requirements are clearly defined, traceable, and verifiable. This role plays a key part in aligning design intent with system integration and verification outcomes to enable a disciplined and integrated aircraft development approach.

Key Responsibilities:

 • Support system development activities including requirements definition, architecture development, and

baseline control in accordance with ARP4754.

• Support both design-side and system integration-side Systems Engineering activities, with responsibilities

shifting as the program progresses.

• Support requirements management using DOORS Next Generation (DNG), including requirements

development, traceability, and change coordination.

• Support configuration control of requirements, architectures, and system artifacts across design and

integration phases.

• Contribute to verification and validation (V&V) planning from a design perspective and support V&V execution

during system integration and test.

• Act as a technical interface between design teams and system integration/test teams to ensure alignment of

design intent and verification outcomes.

• Support preparation and maintenance of Systems Engineering documentation, including plans, development

assurance artifacts, and certification support materials.

• Support coordination of engineering teams through design reviews, integration activities, and key program

milestones.

• Support aircraft certification activities by contributing to requirements justification, verification evidence, and

regulatory alignment.

• Collaborate across disciplines to ensure consistent application of Systems Engineering practices throughout

the development lifecycle.

• Provide guidance and knowledge sharing on Systems Engineering principles, tools, and best practices as

needed.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Aerospace, Mechanical, Electrical, Systems Engineering, or related field

• At least 5 years of experience on aircraft or rotorcraft development programs.

• Hands-on Systems Engineering experience aligned with ARP4754 across design and/or integration phases.

• Strong experience in either design-side or integration/test-side Systems Engineering, with demonstrated ability to work effectively across both.

• Experience supporting requirements definition, architecture development, and configuration baseline control.

• Experience supporting verification and validation (V&V) of integrated aircraft systems.

• Experience supporting design reviews, integration activities, and certification-related discussions.

• Practical experience using requirements management tools such as DOORS, DNG, or

• Solid understanding of Systems Engineering principles and their rationale.

• Ability to operate across design, integration, and test organizations.

• Strong organizational, communication, and coordination skills.
