About the role
Northrop Grumman Aeronautics Systems in California seeks a Senior Principal Systems Engineer to join our systems engineering team. You will apply the full lifecycle from concept to delivery, interfacing with customers and leaders to design against performance and safety requirements. Responsibilities include developing ICDs, MBSE-based architecture, and supporting SRR/PDR/CDR reviews. An active US Secret clearance is required, with potential for Top Secret/SAP as needed.
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.
