DESCRIPTION

As a member of the KGS Engineering Integrated Systems Solutions organization, the Software I&T Engineer will be responsible for developing the architecture and executing the design, build, and validation of test systems for complex systems and subsystems. The candidate will have the capabilities to develop software test procedures, test software, test scripts, APIs, and automation to enable test and verification at various products levels including but not limited to system-on-chip (SoC) calibration algorithm verification, silicon wafer and photonics test, test automation and data analysis for software interfaces to electronics, opto-mechanical/opto-electrical subsystems, and system level software tests. The candidate will be responsible for ensuring the test architecture supports all aspects of the integration, test, verification, and validation of one or more of the following: the satellite bus, RF payloads, optical payloads, custom ground terminals, or custom user terminals. This includes testing, analyzing, and optimizing the test support equipment to the particular satellite or ground element being developed. Testing efforts include functional and performance testing through various environmental conditions as required and it will be the candidate’s responsibility to ensure the test systems enable efficient test execution and requirements verification.Security Clearance: This position requires that the candidate selected be a US Citizen and candidates must be able to obtain and maintain a US Government security clearance of TS/SCI.
Key job responsibilities
• Provide Software Integration and Test leadership to one or more of the following: the satellite bus software, RF payload software, optical payloads software, custom ground terminals software, or custom user terminals software.
• Provide test software design technical expertise to one or more of the following products and services: satellite bus, RF payloads, optical payloads, custom ground terminals, or custom user terminals.
• Specify and develop end-to-end payload or sub-system integration and test plans and procedures to validate performance against customer and/or partner requirements
• Create test algorithms, test scripts, automation, and calibration routines for test systems
•Analyze software test data and engage with cross functionally with teammates, partners, suppliers, or customers to evaluate the product performance and provide proactive feedback on potential improvements.
• Architect, design, and validate test software for support equipment necessary to enable test execution and requirements verification
•Prepare reports documenting test results, test coverage, performance results and other key performance indicator (KPI) metrics, and communicate issues effectively with developers and managers
• Effectively manage and track to closure test anomalies, defects, and bugs; Debug, root-cause, and make continuous improvements of control systems in a high-rate production environment
