• Define and manage the technical interfaces between the subsystems and the platform
• Analyze electrical, data, mechanical, thermal, EMC/EMI and RF constraints associated with the
installation of mission equipment on various platforms
• Troubleshoot complex integration issues at system level and drive root-cause analysis and corrective actions.
• Support prototype build, laboratory integration, testing (including field testing), qualification and acceptance activities.
• Review and approve technical documentation, including interface control documents, system specifications, test procedures, integration reports and configuration documentation.
• Ensure configuration management and traceability of mission equipment and interfaces throughout the project lifecycle.
