BAE Systems, Precision Guidance and Sensing Solutions (PGSS) Product Line within the Precision Strike (PS) Business Area has an immediate opening for an experienced Systems Engineer to lead the next phase of development for our THAAD Missile Seeker program. In this position, the systems engineering lead will be responsible for all aspects of the systems engineering life cycle as we move to support our customer communitys requirements for system upgrades to the existing THAAD Missile Seeker.

In addition, the SE Lead will be expected to learn and grow their technical knowledge in becoming a Subject Matter Expert in the product. This role requires the candidate to be an outgoing, well-connected self-starter with a desire to grow the organization.

Candidates should be comfortable working with teams of all sizes and enjoy a mix of creative design work, mentoring the next generation of protégés, developing White Papers, presenting internally and externally, and leading test events.
