As a trusted partner to the Federal Aviation Administration, Peraton helps deliver the systems and services that keep our nation’s skies safe and connected. We’re looking for innovative professionals who thrive in mission-critical environments and are passionate about shaping the future of air traffic management. This is your chance to make an impact on one of the world’s most vital transportation infrastructures, working alongside leaders in aviation, engineering, data science, and systems integration.

  • Ensure successful interoperability of hardware, software, and communications systems.

  • Conduct and oversee system-level integration testing, verification, and validation (V&V).

  • Collaborate with engineers, architects, and program managers to define integration requirements and resolve design conflicts.

  • Develop and maintain integration documentation, diagrams, and interface control documents (ICDs).

  • Support risk assessments, trade studies, and impact analyses for integration strategies.

  • Provide technical oversight of subcontractors and vendors supporting integration work.

  • Ensure integration activities comply with FAA standards, federal requirements, and industry best practices.

  • Lead root cause analysis and corrective actions for integration issues or system failures.

  • troubleshooting skills for complex multi-system environments.

  • Deliver technical reports, dashboards, and executive-level briefings on integration progress and risks.

Why This Role Matters

The FAA is the cornerstone of aviation safety and innovation. As a Senior Systems Integration Engineer, you will ensure that new technologies and legacy systems work together reliably and securely. Your leadership will directly impact the FAA’s ability to deploy modernization initiatives on time, minimize operational risks, and safeguard the systems that enable safe and efficient air travel.
