– Assist with the development of system requirements, functional requirements, and allocation of the same to individual hardware, software, facility, and personnel components
– Coordinate the resolution of action items from Configuration Control Board (CCB) meetings, design reviews, program reviews, and test reviews that require cross-discipline coordination
– Participate in an Integrated Product Team to design new capabilities based upon evaluation of all necessary development and operational considerations
– Allocate real-time process budgets and error budgets to systems and subsystem components
– Generate alternative system concepts, physical architectures, and design solutions
