Principal Telemetry & Instrumentation Architect

• Architectural Design & Development:

• Lead the architectural design, development, and evolution of comprehensive instrumentation systems and associated range infrastructure for complex test and evaluation systems. - Define system requirements, specifications, and interface control documents (ICDs) for new and upgraded range capabilities. - Develop long-term architectural roadmaps, technology insertion plans, and strategic upgrades to maintain state-of-the-art range capabilities. - Instrumentation Systems Engineering:

• Select, integrate, and validate various instrumentation technologies including, but not limited to: telemetry (RF/Optical), radar, optics (high-speed cameras, IR, EO), GPS/PNT, environmental sensors, and acoustic arrays. - Design and implement robust data acquisition (DAQ), processing, storage, and analysis pipelines to support real-time and post-test data needs. - Develop and manage calibration procedures and ensure accuracy and traceability of all instrumentation. - Range Infrastructure Development:

• Design and oversee the implementation of critical range infrastructure components, such as fiber optic networks, RF distribution systems, power distribution, communication systems, timing and synchronization, and environmental controls for instrumentation shelters. - Perform RF Survey analysis to ensure noise floor is within desired tolerance ranges for various test sites and environments. - Ensure network connectivity, cybersecurity, and data security for all instrumentation systems across the range. - Coordinate with facility engineers and construction teams for physical infrastructure modifications and deployments. - Test & Operations Support:

• Collaborate closely with test directors, mission planners, range operators, and data analysts to understand requirements and provide technical solutions. - Provide expert support during testing, anomaly resolution, and post-test data analysis. - Ensure compliance with all relevant range safety, security, environmental, and regulatory requirements. - Technical Leadership & Mentorship:

• Provide technical leadership, guidance, and mentorship to junior engineers and cross-functional teams. - Conduct trade studies, feasibility analyses, and risk assessments for proposed architectural changes and technology investments. - Prepare detailed technical reports, presentations, and documentation for internal stakeholders and external customers. REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Systems Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field. - 15+ years of progressive experience in instrumentation systems architecture, leadership, or complex range infrastructure development, preferably within the defense or aerospace industry. - Demonstrated experience in systems architecture development for complex real-time systems. - Strong understanding of data acquisition (DAQ) principles, telemetry systems (e.g., IRIG 106), RF systems, and various sensor technologies. - Proficiency with system modeling tools (e.g., SysML, MATLAB/Simulink), CAD software, and/or programming languages (e.g., Python, C++). - Extensive experience in the design, development, integration, operation, and maintenance of test range infrastructure and instrumentation supporting high-speed weapons systems and Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs)/drones. - Experience with network design, distributed systems, and real-time data processing. - Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to articulate complex technical concepts to diverse audiences. - Ability to work independently, manage multiple priorities, and lead technical efforts within a team environment. - Ability to travel as required to multiple test locations CONUS and OCONUS. - Must be able to obtain and maintain a U.S. Security Clearance (Secret or Top Secret preferred). PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Master's or Ph.D. in a relevant engineering discipline. - Experience with specific missile test range instrumentation, such as high-speed video systems, precision timing systems, advanced radar tracking, or target scoring systems. - Knowledge of cybersecurity best practices and implementation for critical infrastructure and classified systems. - Familiarity with industry standards (e.g., IRIG, MIL-STD-1553, ARINC 429). - Project management experience (PMP certification a plus). - Hands-on experience with hardware design, prototyping, and testing.
