Systems Engineer - Power & Energy Systems

About Integer Technologies

Integer Technologies is an applied research and product development company founded by scientists and engineers with a passion for technology and national security. We perform R&D on next-generation systems and technologies for the Department of Defense and other U.S. Government agencies. We are hardware and software developers with experience turning research into impactful products for military and commercial applications. Our core portfolio of research includes projects in power & energy systems, unmanned systems (with an emphasis on maritime systems), digital engineering, and advanced manufacturing. We are a startup founded for the purpose of putting research into action. Our mission is to create a safer world by translating scientific discoveries into reliable products that address urgent national security needs… at the speed of relevance.

Our unmanned systems portfolio includes work on critical enabling technologies for more reliable, more intelligent, and longer-duration unmanned systems. We are actively developing a new perception system that automatically detects objects on and just below the surface of the water, day, or night, and in most weather conditions, by fusing sensor data from multi-spectral cameras and radar using reliable and validated machine learning algorithms. This perception system will be a key enabler for autonomous ships to navigate safely without human intervention. Our power & energy systems portfolio includes work supporting the DoD’s the electrification of platforms beginning with Navy ships. Applications include hybrid and electric propulsion systems, autonomous controls, and integration with mission systems to achieve ultra-fast power system response.

About the role

• Establish the MBSE baseline. Deliver a SysML architecture for naval power systems that serves as the authoritative source of truth for requirements traceability, interface definitions, and design margins across the program. 

• Advance SE applications for naval ship design and acquisition. Identify and prototype systems engineering methods (e.g., model-based requirements management, digital thread integration, trade space analysis) that improve design quality and acquisition decision-making across the naval ship design lifecycle, from concept development through contract award. 

• Accelerate the SE workflow. Build and deploy SE tooling and automation that demonstrably reduce design-decision cycle time (e.g., trade study turnaround, requirements change impact analysis), with measurable before/after benchmarks. 

• Enable warfighting design-space exploration. Deliver integrated, model-based decision support capability that allows notional design teams to evaluate power system design options against operational mission thread performance. 

What you'll do

• Apply systems thinking frameworks to decompose complex naval power requirements, trace mission-level warfighting needs to physical system constraints, and identify second-order effects across shipboard power, propulsion, and combat system interfaces 

• Develop and maintain system architectures for naval power systems using MBSE methodologies, ensuring full requirements traceability from operational concept through implementation and sustainment 

• Build and manage SysML models (i.e., requirements, functional, behavioral, and parametric diagrams) that capture mission threads, interface control definitions, operational modes, and power system design margins 

• Define integration requirements, data exchange standards, and interoperability requirements across digital twin representations of shipboard power systems, supporting model-to-hardware correlation and design-space exploration 

• Design test and evaluation strategies that validate model predictions against measured system performance, including T&E planning, evaluation criteria definition, data collection architecture, and results analysis 

• Develop andmaintainSE tooling, workflows, and automation that advance the digital engineering strategy, including digital thread continuity, model-based trade study execution, and decision support dashboards for design and program reviews 

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams includingelectricalengineers,digital twin engineers, andsoftware engineers 

• Serve asatechnical authority forMBSE and relatedmethodologies 

• Identifyand implement innovative technologies, tools, and methodologies
