Jobs at BAE Systems, Inc.

Lead systems engineering for safety-critical avionics and electronic control systems: develop and manage system/hardware/software requirements, design architectures, define interfaces, perform system integration, verification and validation, produce technical documentation, and support proposals and program activities.

Lead design, development, integration, test, and production of high-reliability embedded and mixed-signal CCAs for military avionics. Develop FPGA/processor-based architectures, perform requirements and trade studies, execute test plans, support prototyping and LRIP/FRP, and participate in business capture and production sustainment.

Lead and manage a team of hardware engineers while also contributing technically to programs across the product lifecycle (design, reviews, verification, integration, proposals). Recruit, mentor, assign staff, enforce hardware development processes, and support Electronic Warfare system development for DoD programs. Role is a player-coach combining people management with hands-on hardware engineering work onsite.

Drive supplier development by analyzing manufacturing and quality data, leading cross-functional onsite assessments and kaizens, implementing tooling/automation and control plans, and presenting results to senior stakeholders to improve supplier processes and readiness.

Lead deployment of operational excellence and supplier quality initiatives across the sector. Develop and monitor KPI programs, manage CI project portfolio, apply Lean/6S and Six Sigma tools, train suppliers (Green/Black Belt), lead kaizens and RCCA 8D events, and partner to resolve systemic supplier issues to improve quality, delivery, cost and inventory.

The Program Manager will oversee the development of a laser-based pointing system, managing contracts, teams, and project success through planning and risk management.

Manage and develop a section of hardware engineers (mechanical, electrical, RF, EO/IR), recruit/train/assign staff, enforce hardware development processes, and serve as a technical contributor across the product lifecycle for DoD Electronic Warfare systems (design, reviews, verification, integration). Role is full-time onsite and requires ability to obtain Secret clearance.

Develop, analyze, design, implement, and test complex software (primarily C++) for defense systems on Windows/Linux and embedded targets (ARM, x86-64, GPUs). Integrate and test in target environments, use source control, and support integration/test events; work full-time on-site in Southern New Hampshire.

BAE Systems seeks systems engineers across multiple seniority levels to design, model, integrate, test, and support flight-critical electronic systems. Responsibilities include requirements development and analysis, SysML modeling, system architecture, integration and test, and collaboration on avionics, engine controls, electrification, and related subsystems. Roles range from individual contributor to technical leadership.

Design and implement embedded software for avionics and related control systems across the full lifecycle. Develop low-level bare-metal software, device drivers and BSPs using C/C++/Assembly in embedded toolchains, collaborate with systems, hardware, test teams, and mentor peers. Participate in integration, testing, and customer technical reviews.

Lead and develop a systems engineering team designing flight and engine control systems. Provide technical guidance, manage staffing and resource allocation, drive MBSE and engineering processes, collaborate cross-functionally, lead design reviews, ensure requirements, integration, verification, quality, and regulatory compliance.

Drive supplier development by analyzing manufacturing and quality data, leading cross-functional supplier events, performing onsite technical assessments, implementing process improvements (automation, tooling, control plans), creating training and development plans, and presenting results to stakeholders. Travel up to 50%.

The Senior Analog Circuit Design Engineer will design and verify analog circuitry for avionics, collaborate with engineering teams, and perform circuit analysis and troubleshooting.

Lead mechanical design, analysis, prototyping, test, and production for high-reliability defense electronics. Create 3D models and drawings, perform thermal/structural/vibration analyses, develop and execute test plans, troubleshoot failures, and support requirements, manufacturing, and new-business capture.

Support front-end circuit card assembly and conformal coating manufacturing: develop, optimize, and sustain processes; troubleshoot equipment; run SPC and yield-improvement efforts; support NPI/NRE, equipment qualification (IQ/OQ/PQ), and ensure AS9100/IPC/J-STD compliance while maintaining process documentation and driving continuous improvement.

Maintain and modernize UNIX server infrastructure and lead cloud migration to Azure. Build and operate CI/CD and DevSecOps pipelines, implement IaC (ARM/Bicep/Terraform), automate configuration management, ensure security and performance, and troubleshoot critical incidents across hybrid cloud environments.

Lead migration and modernization of Windows workloads to Azure, design and maintain Azure DevOps CI/CD pipelines and IaC (ARM/Bicep/Terraform), automate via PowerShell/REST, manage Windows servers and containerized workloads (AKS, Docker, Tanzu), enforce security/compliance (CMMC, STIGs, CIS), and mentor junior engineers.

As Technical Director, lead the development of engine control systems for advanced aircraft, engaging with customers, managing technology roadmaps, and mentoring teams.

The role involves leading the design and testing of complex digital circuit cards. Responsibilities include mentoring junior engineers, interfacing across departments, troubleshooting, and improving design methodologies.

The Senior Principal Laser Engineer will design, analyze, and test advanced laser systems, contribute to program planning and proposals, and communicate findings with colleagues and clients.
