Systems Engineering Integration & Test Lead, Public Sector

We are looking for a Systems Engineering, Integration & Test (SEIT) Lead to own the technical execution of software demonstrations for classified government customers. You will turn customer mission needs into demo-ready capability. That means defining requirements and architecture, running integration and test, and delivering demonstrations on tight timelines in secure environments. You will be the technical bridge between program management, software development, and the customer, and the person who makes sure what we show works and is traceable to what the customer needs.

You will:

• Lead multiple software demo efforts, from concept through customer demonstration and after-action reporting
• Turn customer mission needs, CONOPS, and use cases into system requirements, demo objectives, and success criteria
• Partner with the Chief Engineer and Chief Architect to own the system architecture and interface definitions (ICDs), and coordinate across software, data, and third-party/GFE components
• Build and run integration and test plans, test procedures, and verification matrices (RVTM)
• Plan and run demo events: environment setup, dry runs, rehearsals, go/no-go reviews, and on-site support
• Partner with the infrastructure and engineering teams to maintain integration and test environments on classified networks and in SCIFs, working with security and IT on accreditation needs
• Lead technical reviews (system requirements reviews, test readiness reviews) and present to customer stakeholders at the right level of technical depth
• Manage technical risk, configuration baselines, and change control across fast-moving development cycles for critical demonstrations

Must Haves:

• An active TS/SCI clearance
• 10+ years of systems engineering experience, with 5+ years in integration and test of software-intensive systems
• 3+ years in a technical lead role on DoD or IC programs
• Hands-on experience delivering software demos, prototypes, or rapid capability efforts to government customers
• Strong command of requirements management, verification and validation, and interface control
• Experience working in classified environments (SCIFs, air-gapped networks, cross-domain constraints)
• Comfortable presenting to senior government and military stakeholders
• Knowledge of risk management framework (RMF) / authority to operate (ATO) processes
