Position Summary
Credence has an immediate need for a Systems Integration Engineer B-52 (WBD) at the senior level who will be primarily responsible for supporting the B-52 Stratofortress Division (AFLCMC WBD) at Tinker AFB, OK.
The B-52 Stratofortress division protects our nation by modernizing and sustaining the B-52 fleet and ensuring continued AF power projection. With a 60-year history as the backbone of the nation’s nuclear deterrence operations, the current fleet of 76 B-52H aircraft is capable of deploying the widest array of weapons in the U.S. inventory and supports multiple combatant command operations. This division provides world-class expertise and technical services, ensuring the operational safety, suitability, and effectiveness of war-winning capabilities. It also maintains the airworthiness of the B-52 Stratofortress throughout its projected service life, which extends to 2050.
Responsibilities include, but are not limited to the duties listed below:

• Independently perform systems engineering analysis across aeronautical systems, capability planning, and materiel solution development for existing fighter/bomber programs and future programs, including Next Generation Bomber and 2030 Air Dominance efforts.

• Bridge warfighter-identified capability requirements to acquisition planning by researching program information, providing systems engineering insight, conducting analyses, and preparing briefings.

• Manage interfaces and processes across development planning, technology, intelligence, acquisition, sustainment, and user communities.

• Support requirements definition, doctrine alignment, technology integration, intelligence integration, sustainment strategy development, and horizontally integrated acquisition, sustainment, and investment strategies.

• Develop and assess architecture-based capability requirements and option sets to ensure interoperability and integration across platforms, programs, phases, and enterprises.

• Support the development of cross-cutting capability strategies and assist with initiating, writing, reviewing, and implementing acquisition, engineering, test, and life-cycle documentation, including TEMPs, SEPs, RFPs, SOOs, test plans, LCMPs, LCSPs, and Pre-MS A/Pre-MS B documentation.

• Identify, assess, and analyze future capability solution sets in support of program reviews, Integrated Baseline Reviews, and systems engineering initiatives related to commercial item acquisition, NDI, COTS, FAA-certified items, and performance-based business practices.

• Assist in managing capability and systems engineering studies involving multiple divisions and communicate systems engineering solutions, risk analyses, and future solutions across AFLCMC, MAJCOMs, other enterprises, and the Air Staff.

• Support program transitions into and out of the F/B Directorate to enhance fielded warfighter capabilities.

• Support Family of Systems and Systems of Systems engineering, including capability management strategies such as airborne electronic attack and related mission areas.

• Assist with establishing capability architect functions within each division to support integrated architectures for cross-enterprise comparison, analysis, and integration.

• Support technology process development and administration, including applied technology councils, Small Business Innovative Research initiatives, and related proposal identification and assessment activities.

• Review planning documents, including MNS, ORD, ICD, CDD, and CPD materials, for realistic industrial base execution and promote modeling, simulation, and analysis throughout the acquisition life cycle.

• Support intelligence information and infrastructure integration to enable cross-enterprise capability planning and system acquisition.

• Coordinate large and small group briefings, document discussion records, support senior functional lead collaboration, manage higher headquarters and internal tasks, and assist with reporting, baseline management, schedule management, business process integration, and special projects.

• Apply system integration engineering expertise to coordinate technical components and program elements and ensure they function together as an integrated system.

• Review and evaluate military airworthiness certification documentation, coordinate engineering discipline consensus, and provide detailed airworthiness status to engineering management.

• Analyze DoD and USAF airworthiness certification, systems engineering, and sustainment policies and processes against accepted industry and military standards; identify gaps and recommend improvements.

• Coordinate engineering reviews and evaluations for test planning, including First Article Test-like activities, and provide test activity status to engineering management.

• Support engineering activities including FCA/PCA, aircraft and simulator certifications, technical evaluation of contractor efforts, environmental and hazardous material management, system safety, risk management, deficiency report resolution, mission planning system integration, and geospatial data updates.

• Apply system integration engineering analyses to support SEP development, OSS&E baseline development, and planning for…
