Yes, 10% of the Time Description At Northrop Grumman, our employees have incredible opportunities to work on revolutionary systems that impact people's lives around the world today, and for generations to come. Our pioneering and inventive spirit has enabled us to be at the forefront of many technological advancements in our nation's history - from the first flight across the Atlantic Ocean, to stealth bombers, to landing on the moon.

We look for people who have bold new ideas, courage and a pioneering spirit to join forces to invent the future, and have fun along the way. Our culture thrives on intellectual curiosity, cognitive diversity and bringing your whole self to work - and we have an insatiable drive to do what others think is impossible. Our employees are not only part of history, they're making history.

Northrop Grumman Mission Systems is a trusted provider of mission-enabling solutions for global security. Our organization pushes the boundaries of innovation, redefines engineering capabilities, and drives advances in various sciences. Our team is chartered with providing the skills, innovative technologies to develop, design, produce and sustain optimized product lines across the sector while providing a decisive advantage to the warfighter.

Come be a part of our mission! We are looking for you to join our team as a System/Principal Systems Engineer based out of Pt Mugu, CA. Northrop Grumman Mission Systems seeks a Systems/Principal Systems Engineer to perform systems engineering for an Electromagnetic Warfare (EW) program at NAWC Point Mugu, CA. Work as part of a Navy led team developing EW systems mainly for the USMC.

This Systems Engineering position would support senior Navy system engineers with the development of EW systems. System development would primarily focus on hardware design, prototyping and testing, with integration of software and possible scripting. Duties vary over time and may include:
* Follow supplied USMC operational scenarios, requirements, and architecture framework (DoDAF) for system development.

* Review new system requirements decomposed from the USMC supplied operational requirements, and/or develop project high-level requirements with Navy Model Based System Engineering (MBSE) engineers.

* Assist the senior systems engineer with the generation and documentation of a new system's architecture and design (power, RF, and functional block diagrams).

* Assist the senior systems engineers with adherence to appropriate military standards via system requirements, design, and test (MIL-STD-461 (EMI), MIL-STD-464 (EMC), MIL-STD-704 (power), MIL-STD-810 (environmental), MIL-STD-882 (safety), MIL-STD-1250 and MIL-STD-7179 (corrosion), MIL-STD-1289 and MIL-STD-8591 (aircraft stores), and MIL-STD-1472 (human factors)).

* Review system thermal, safety, and reliability analyses.

* Review the system design features for the protection of Critical Program Information (CPI).

* Assist the senior system engineers with new system design features to enhance USMC supportability and maintainability of the system.

* Research and make recommendations on COTS components for system development based on system performance requirements, size, weight, and power constraints, etc.

* Support system prototyping at the bench level, in order to technically evaluate potential COTS components for possible use in new systems and to then evaluate subsequent system design performance.

* Run and develop subsystem Acceptance Test Procedures (ATPs).

* Assist the senior systems engineers with properly configuring new systems, and checking the configuration of existing systems (hardware, configuration file settings, network IP addresses, and set up of communication and encryption devices).

* Learn how to generate electrical drawings in AutoCAD electrical.

* Support the review of electro-mechanical system drawings.

* Support integration testing of system incremental releases.

* Assist with the troubleshooting system failures and performance issues.

* Support the use of key processes, such as the configuration management for system changes after the system baseline is established.
* Support test's evaluation of system performance in the lab. Operate the system and test equipment to evaluate functional and RF performance against requirements.

* Collate technical data in response to program sponsor data calls.

* Review system design documentation and operational checklists, procedures, user manuals, training materials, and other technical publications for technical accuracy and completeness. This position can be filled at the Systems or Principal Systems level Position is contingent on Clearance and Customer Approval Position is on site at NAWC Point Mugu, CA.
