Senior Systems Engineer

This position is posted by Jobgether on behalf of a partner company. We are currently looking for a Senior Systems Engineer in United States.

This role sits at the core of designing, integrating, and maintaining highly available and mission-critical distributed systems supporting complex data and radar infrastructure environments. You will play a key part in ensuring system resilience, performance, and continuity across enterprise-level architectures used in regulated and high-stakes government contexts. The position involves deep technical ownership of system design, integration, and reliability engineering, with a strong focus on fault tolerance and disaster recovery. You will collaborate closely with cross-functional engineering and stakeholder teams to translate requirements into scalable technical solutions. Operating in a remote-capable environment, you will contribute to both day-to-day system stability and long-term architectural evolution. This is a high-impact engineering role where reliability, security, and uptime are essential.

• Design, document, and maintain system architecture, interface control specifications, and technical engineering documentation for complex distributed systems.
• Provide engineering support for radar and data distribution systems, including integration, performance tuning, monitoring, and system optimization.
• Conduct requirements analysis, gap analysis, and technical trade-off studies to support architectural and engineering decision-making.
• Design and implement high-availability, fault-tolerant systems with redundancy, clustering, load balancing, and automated failover capabilities.
• Support disaster recovery planning, including resilient architecture design and participation in DR testing and validation exercises.
• Ensure systems are engineered for rapid recovery, continuity, and operational stability during failures or outages.
• Perform system integration, testing, and validation, including regression, performance, and failover testing activities.

Requirements:

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, or a related technical field.
• 15+ years of experience in systems engineering, infrastructure engineering, or related technical roles.
• Strong experience designing and maintaining highly available, distributed, and mission-critical systems.
• Deep understanding of system integration, performance optimization, fault tolerance, and disaster recovery design.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office tools including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access, and Outlook.
• Experience working with data and analytical systems in complex enterprise environments.
• Strong communication skills with the ability to collaborate with technical teams and external stakeholders.
• Experience supporting proposal development or technical documentation for engineering solutions.
• Must be a U.S. citizen or authorized to work in the U.S. and have resided in the country for the past 3 years.
• Ability to obtain and maintain a Secret Clearance.

Benefits:

• Competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package.
• Collaborative and innovation-driven work environment.
• Remote work flexibility depending on project and operational needs.
• Opportunity to work on mission-critical systems supporting national-level infrastructure.
• Exposure to complex, large-scale distributed system architecture challenges.
• Stable, long-term technical role within a highly specialized engineering environment.
