Systems Engineer – Mission and Flight Planning and Management Team

The MV-75 Future Long Range Assault Aircraft (FLRAA) is the Premier Vertical Lift military program in the world. Bell's FLRAA aircraft will become the Army's primary assault aircraft for the next 30 years, advancing the Army's assault capabilities. The FLRAA program is utilizing the latest in cutting edge technology to expand the United States Army’s tactical advantage in future conflicts. The Bell FLRAA team seeks the top engineering talents from around the industry to design, develop, and deliver the world’s next-generation military aircraft.

The Mission Planning and Management Team is responsible for defining the technical requirements and scope of work for two software subsystems that will perform military and civilian flight planning and flight management functions as well as military mission planning and management functions. The team oversees a major subcontractor’s development of the software and is responsible for integrating the software into the FLRAA mission system and performing formal verification testing of subsystem and weapon system requirements in laboratory and flight test. The Mission and Flight Planning and Management Systems Engineer is responsible for executing the systems engineering processes to oversee subcontractor development of mission and flight planning and management software, to integrate this software into the FLRAA mission system and aircraft system in the Bell Systems Integration Lab (SIL) and to perform integration and verification testing in the SIL and on the prototype aircraft.
