• Establish system architecture and CONOPS, perform system trades and analysis, flow down the architecture and CONOPS into requirements and interfaces, and support verification planning
• Define Key performance parameters, technical performance measures and the associated derived requirements
• Support requirements and verification team projects and coordinate regularly with key partners to maintain program objectives
• Be responsible for drafting, reviewing, and releasing requirements specification documents, including defining the requirements and verification baseline
• Develop Specifications and Interface Control Documents
• Use MBSE tools and processes to generate synergistic models to establish linkages across verification artifacts and requirements
• Quickly become a proficient independent contributor with Cameo and DOORS and apply systems engineering change control process to maintain control of requirements
• Use your excellent communication skills to work across the Lockheed Martin organization and customer/user community to ensure consensus and understanding of solutions

This information reflects the standard job description for this position: Performs technical planning, system integration, verification and validation, cost and risk, and supportability and effectiveness analyses for total systems.
