Job description

Standard Job Description What We're Doing Our team, the Command and Control, Battle Management and Communications (C2BMC) team at Lockheed Martin, is dedicated to engineering, developing, and integrating new capabilities for the Missile Defense System that protects the United States and its allies. While we are part of a large organization, we operate within smaller, agile teams in a fast-paced, dynamic environment. Our responsibilities include Sensor/Weapon Integration, Algorithm Development, User Interface Development, Automated Testing, Cyber Security, and enhancing critical missile defense technologies. The Work The role sits at the heart of an integrated solutions architecture and systems engineering effort, working on a multi company team to define the operational, physical, functional, and technical architectures that will shape an evolving C2BMC (Command, Control, Battle Management, and Communications) capability. As the product owner for the architecture, you will own the backlog of architecture artifacts, prioritize capability delivery, and ensure that each increment aligns with stakeholder expectations. You will architect missile defense command and control and battle management systems, leveraging existing COTS/GOTS components while guaranteeing full DoD interoperability. A core responsibility is turning high level mission needs into a cohesive hardware software solution, analyzing requirements, articulating desired capabilities to developers, engineers, SMEs, and users, and producing and maintaining system models, interface control documents, and functional flow diagrams. You will also design and develop new systems, modernize legacy platforms, drive the roadmap for architectural evolution, lead portions of the design effort, and support internal and external design reviews with clear written and oral technical presentations. Please Note: -This position requires a government security clearance; you must be a U.S. Citizen for consideration. -The role will involve approximately 10% travel to customer sites throughout the U.S. Who We Are As leader of the C2BMC team, Lockheed Martin directs a partnership of highly responsive industry leaders developing and fielding the backbone of America’s missile defense. Together, this national team supports the design, development, test, integration and fielding of hardware and software elements that enable the Missile Defense System (MDS) to function effectively and continually. You will also have the opportunity to interface with our key customers in the Missile Defense Agency (MDA).
