We are seeking a Systems Engineering Leader that will supervise and contribute to our Aviation Weapons segment of the PGSS product line.  The systems engineering discipline is critical to the product development of new warfare capabilities using your expertise. You will lead and manage a systems engineering team of 10 – 12 engineers who are charged to develop requirements, monitor design, complete test and verification, deliver, and support critical mission capabilities.  A key aspect of the role will be to increase your team’s domain knowledge as well as working with them on career aspirations and general career development during their time with BAE Systems.
