Job Description
Phalanx Griffon (PG) is the Air Force’s next‑gen airborne node connecting warfighters to decision‑quality data across the DAF BATTLE NETWORK. As Senior Test Engineer , you will architect and execute the end‑to‑end verification, validation, and flight‑test strategy for Major Release 2 (FY 25‑27)—from bench‑level checkout in the Integration SIL to operational acceptance on multiple aircraft.
Essential Job Functions:
Strategy & Planning
Build the Program‑level Test & Evaluation Master Plan (TEMP) that links Nomad hardware, Smith software, and Watch ops‑support elements to CJADC2 mission threads and MR 2 exit criteria.
Define DT/OT entrance & exit gates, traceability matrices, and milestone metrics within the Integrated Master Schedule.
System Integration Laboratory (SIL) Leadership
Design lab architectures replicating platform power, data, and environmental interfaces; oversee daily ops, configuration control, and security accreditation.
Implement automated regression suites (Python/Robot Framework, Jenkins, Ansible, IXIA/Spirent) covering functional, performance, and cyber‑resilience tests.
Developmental & Operational Test Execution
Lead ground and flight‑test events: draft test cards, hazard analyses, Interim Authorizations To Test (IATT) , and Safety‑of‑Flight packages.
Serve as lead flight‑test engineer or ground‑test conductor, capturing telemetry, logs, and spectrum traces; troubleshoot anomalies in real time.
Data Analysis & Reporting
Perform statistical analysis of throughput, latency, crypto handshake times, SWaP‑C impacts, and mission‑effect metrics.
Produce concise after‑action reports, deficiency reports (DRs), and recommendations for corrective action to IPTs and senior USAF stakeholders.
Continuous Integration / DevSecOps
Integrate test automation hooks into the PG DevSecOps pipeline; ensure every 90‑day Smith build passes gated SIL tests before promotion.
Champion a “shift‑left” testing mindset—embedding verification earlier in design reviews and digital engineering artifacts.
Mentorship & Collaboration
Guide junior test engineers, platform SPO test reps, and Government civilians on best practices for agile T&E.
Interface with NSA, DISA, and flight‑safety authorities to align test artifacts with certification needs (ATO, crypto, airworthiness).
Required Skills:
Due to the sensitivity of customer related requirements, U.S. Citizenship is required.
A High School Diploma plus 20 years of experience with proper certifications, a Bachelors degree in an applicable discipline and 15+ years of DoD system‑of‑systems test engineering, including lab‑to‑flight progression, or a Masters degree plus 12 years of experience.
Active TS/SCI clearance.
Proven leadership of large‑scale DT/OT efforts for avionics, communications, or C2 systems.
Hands‑on with test automation frameworks, instrumentation, and data‑analysis tools (MATLAB, Pandas, JMP, or similar).
Familiarity with MIL‑STD‑810/461, RCC 324/125‑15, or comparable environmental and EMI/EMC standards.
Desired Skills:
Previous work on ABMS, CJADC2, OMS/UCI, or tactical data‑link programs.
Experience with Type‑1 crypto, cross‑domain solutions, and RMF/eMASS artifacts.
Flight‑test credentials (USAF TPS grad, FAA DER, or equivalent).
Agile/Scrum or SAFe certification; knowledge of Model‑Based Test (MBSE‑driven test cases).
