About the role

Vivid Technology in Rockville, Maryland seeks a Director of Systems Engineering to lead the UT engineering function. You will own system architecture, requirements, and verification for Ku/Ka-band satellite terminals, spanning RF, baseband, and multi-orbit integration. You will mentor a diverse engineering team and collaborate with hardware, software, RF, and product groups to deliver next‑gen terminal platforms. A strong background in satellite systems and MBSE is required.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
