and provide engineering evaluation of equipment and simulator designs.

• Conduct engineering performance, effectiveness, cost effectiveness, cost performance, life cycle cost, producibility, reliability and maintainability, risk and scheduling trade-off studies.
• Conduct simulation studies to evaluate all aspects of armament system development and acquisition to include but not limited to system and component performance, engineering trade-offs, system effectiveness, and logistics.
• Conduct "make or buy" analyses for systems, subsystems, and components of principal support and test equipment.
• Develop, evaluate, and execute systems test plans (such as test and evaluation master plan (TEMP)) and participate in the conduct of system, subsystem, and component testing.
• Conduct analyses of industrial base capabilities and capacities for support of munitions system development and acquisition.
• Conduct and evaluate time and engineering cost estimates in support of research, development, test, training, and acquisition of munitions related systems.
• Perform engineering tasks concerned with definition of systems requirements and performance.
• Develop and utilize analytical and simulation analysis techniques to optimize system performance and / or system effectiveness;

establish system sensitivities, define system parameters, evaluate hardware and validate flight test results in terms of overall system relationships and applications.

• Prepare and review program peculiar specifications for items, processes, and materials.
• Review, evaluate, and monitor acquisition Contractor drawings for completeness, currency, technical accuracy and conformance to requirements, specifications, regulations, and quality control.
• Develop, prepare, review, and integrate selected milestone review documentation, periodic reports, and certifications and recommend and prepare changes.
• Provide engineering efforts on systems, products, or materials required to resolve technical or supportability deficiencies revealed in system resting, sustainment, maintenance, and operation.
• Apply Integrated Life Cycle Management Analysis and diversified professional engineering concepts, theories, and practices to achieve objectives by adapting and applying methods and techniques of related scientific disciplines.
• Provide direct support to various IPTs to perform engineering trade studies, requirements analysis, root cause analysis, design trade studies, evaluate the application of emerging technologies;

and otherwise support, refine, improve, and document applied systems engineering principles / processes as they are applied in support of the Branch.

• Support integrated logistics support efforts, provisioning and source coding, maintenance data collection, technical order management, configuration management, analyses of Air Force Technical Order, evaluation of quality deficiency reports, and / or identification of alternate sources of supply for diminishing manufacturing / materiel sources preferred.
• Experience with Electronic Warfare and / or Air Combat Operations, training, and development of tactics, techniques, and procedures, as well as Range infrastructure architectures and systems, range systems design, development and testing of electrotechnology (any electrical and electronic) systems.
