Overview:
he Georgia ech Research Ins i u e (G RI) is he nonprofi , applied research division of he Georgia Ins i u e of echnology (Georgia ech). Founded in 1934 as he Engineering Experimen S a ion, G RI has grown o more han 2,900 employees, suppor ing eigh labora ories in over 20 loca ions around he coun ry and performing more han $940 million of problem-solving research annually for governmen and indus ry. G RI's renowned researchers combine science, engineering, economics, policy, and echnical exper ise o solve complex problems for he U.S. federal governmen , s a e, and indus ry.
Georgia ech's Mission and Values
Georgia ech's mission is o develop leaders who advance echnology and improve he human condi ion. he Ins i u e has nine key values ha are founda ional o every hing we do:
1. S uden s are our op priori y.
2. We s rive for excellence.
3. We hrive on diversi y.
4. We celebra e collabora ion.
5. We champion innova ion.
6. We safeguard freedom of inquiry and expression.
7. We nur ure he wellbeing of our communi y.
8. We ac e hically.
9. We are responsible s ewards.
Over he nex decade, Georgia ech will become an example of inclusive innova ion, a leading echnological research universi y of unma ched scale, relen lessly commi ed o serving he public good; breaking new ground in addressing he bigges local, na ional, and global challenges and oppor uni ies of our ime; making echnology broadly accessible; and developing excep ional, principled leaders from all backgrounds ready o produce novel ideas and crea e solu ions wi h real human impac .
Projec /Uni Descrip ion
he Applied Embedded Sys ems (AES) division of he Elec ronic Sys ems Labora ory (ELSYS) suppor s mul iple research produc s and projec s in concer wi h developmen eams who are building complex, mul i-face ed embedded and elec ronic sys ems. AES predominan ly focuses on he research, developmen , es ing, and deploymen of embedded elec ronic and elec romechanical sys ems. hese sys ems provide our sponsors wi h echnological solu ions in he fields of Elec ronic Warfare (EW), Radar, command and con rol, communica ions, avionics, en er ainmen , physiological moni oring, and o her applica ions. his research posi ion will suppor elec ronic hardware developmen needs of he Open Sys ems Developmen Branch (OSDB). his includes developing hardware from exis ing open s andards such as OpenVPX as well as developing hardware ha is driving new open s andards.
Job Purpose
he Sys ems Engineer oversees and coordina es he work of echnical eams on sys ems projec s, ensuring he successful design, implemen a ion, opera ion, and echnical managemen of hose projec s. aking a holis ic approach o sys ems engineering, he Sys ems Engineer ensures ha all aspec s of a sys em projec are considered and addressed. he Sys ems Engineer works closely wi h s akeholders o unders and heir needs and hen develops and documen s echnical requiremen s ha mee hose needs. he Sys ems Engineer leads he design eam in developing a sys em archi ec ure ha mee s all of he requiremen s. Af er he sys em is designed, he Sys ems Engineer oversees he implemen a ion of he sys em, working wi h he implemen a ion eam o ensure ha i mee s all of he requiremen s. Once he sys em is deployed, he Sys ems Engineer manages he echnical aspec s of he sys em, including moni oring performance, roubleshoo ing problems, and making improvemen s.
