About the Company and Position

The Company is an aerospace engineering and consulting services company with an extensive network of experts and industrial partners. Our small but highly qualified team of professionals develops cutting-edge solutions in aerospace, propulsion, and systems engineering.

Our core capabilities are Design, Simulation, Assembly, Integration and Testing. We are looking to expand our Avionics engineering team, with an experienced, practical, and enthusiastic Aerospace Avionics Systems Engineer, who is also a team player.

This exciting but challenging opportunity involves systems engineering of two distinctly separate avionics projects, with responsibilities as outlined below.

Responsibilities

The main duties to be performed by the successful candidate will be:

Participate in the design and development of various simultaneous aerospace projects, within the context of a tailored systems engineering approach. Compile Statements of Work for contracted electronic design engineers, for the design, manufacture and delivery of avionics' subsystems, as defined by the subsystems' technical requirements specifications. Organise and oversee reviews of the avionics subsystems' designs. Oversee the compilation of subsystems' mission firmware design specifications by MKA developers, for use on the specified avionics subsystems. Compile functional requirement specifications for any in-house MKA developed avionics subsystems. Compile functional specifications for electronic test bench appliances, as well as Windows test applications, to be used for verification testing of delivered avionics subsystems. Manage and oversee the design and development of test bench appliances, as well as Windows subsystem test applications by MKA electronic engineers and Windows software developers. Commission test bench appliances and Windows test applications. Compile subsystem test procedures for acceptance of developed avionics subsystems using electronic test appliances and Windows test applications. Execute subsystem verification test procedures using test appliances and applications against the subsystems' verification test requirements. Participate in integrated system verification testing, with emphasis on performance of avionics subsystems. Perform configuration control of avionics hardware and firmware (including version numbers of firmware, modification and serial numbers of hardware etc.). Provide ongoing guidance to the MKA avionics engineers and firmware developers.

Requirements

The following minimum qualifications, experience, skills and knowledge will be required:

Minimum B.Eng degree in Electronics Engineering. Minimum 3 years' work experience in the military and/or commercial industries, utilising systems engineering principles and methodologies.
In addition to the above, the following will be advantageous:
