About the role
Sierra Space Corporation in Colorado is seeking a Principal Systems Engineer to lead the development and integration of complex space systems across test-bed and flight vehicles. You will ensure traceability from stakeholder needs through V&V, manage risks, and mentor SE staff.
The role requires deep systems engineering expertise, DoD-level collaboration, and an active Top Secret with SCI eligibility. The compensation reflects seniority in a mission-critical defense program.
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.
