employees are not only part of history, they're making history.
Northrop Grumman Mission Systems is a trusted provider of
mission-enabling solutions for global security. Our Engineering and

innovation, redefines engineering capabilities, and drives advances
in various sciences. Our team is chartered with providing the
skills, innovative technologies to develop, design, produce and
sustain optimized product lines across the sector while providing a
decisive advantage to the warfighter. Come be a part of our
mission!
The rotating machinery team within the Systems Integration and Test
group is seeking an innovative, self-driven Sr. Principal Systems
Integration and Test Integrated Product Team (IPT) Lead to join our
dynamic, multifaceted team. As one of us, your mission will be to
ensure that the devices we create here to turn steam into
electricity and propulsion for our nation's newest submarines and
aircraft carriers meet the stringent standards our nation's fleet
requires.
What You'll get to Do:
You will have responsibility for all test-related activity
associated with one of our product lines. Under your indirect
leadership will be an IPT consisting of leads from Engineering,
Manufacturing, and Quality who are charged with accomplishing
system-level test campaigns of large, precision, electromechanical
machinery such as turbine-generators and gear-driven propulsion
units. Between test campaigns, you will be responsible as well for
leading teams to accomplish all associated readiness and
continuous-improvement activities in support of these
campaigns.
As the Sr. Principal Systems Integration and Test IPT lead, you
will also own project manager responsibilities and own the
triple-constraint: scope, schedule, and cost. You will lead the
team that turns requirements into plans and procedures and then
accomplishes it. Scope changes will be your responsibility to
review, accept, and define. During test campaigns, you will be
responsible for leading a team of approximately 15 employees in
your immediate sphere. As CAM, you will perform daily and weekly
analyses of your accounts, submit monthly Change Requests (CRs) to
adjust time-phasing for budget and Estimate at Completion (EAC),
and perform twice-yearly Comprehensive Estimate at Completion
(CEAC) analyses and CRs. As owner of the triple constraint, you
will be responsible for ensuring that cost, schedule, and resources
are aligned to meet your objectives.
Note that our unique test campaigns require 24/7 effort. Leading
the effort will take between 12 and 13 hours of your time each day.
However, you will share the workload with peers to have scheduled
days off-although the workload may span two and four weeks
continuously in some cases. Although the workload may sound
intense, we do offer flexibility in taking paid time off and
compensate for all additional hours worked on shift during testing
campaigns. Travel may also be required infrequently for meetings at
customer sites.
The selected candidate will be expected, under this heavy workload,
to manage upward, downward, as well as, laterally while leading
time-critical efforts under customer watch with visibility at the
VP level. Ingenuity, situational awareness, emotional intelligence,
and executive presence will be key to your success. If this type of
work plays to your strengths and goals, then we would like to hear
from you!
We are looking for you to join our team as a Sr. Principal Systems
Integration and Test IPT (Integrated Product Team) Lead based in
Sunnyvale, CA.
