Senior Systems Engineer

Shift5 is building the data platform for onboard operational technology (OT). We deliver cybersecurity, predictive maintenance, and compliance capabilities that enable defense and commercial fleets to operate with greater readiness, resilience, and mission assurance.

We are seeking a mission-aligned Systems Engineer to serve as the critical bridge between our core engineering teams and real-world tactical deployments.

This role sits at the intersection of Platform Integration, Requirements Management, and Technical Execution and will play a critical role in supporting Shift5’s next phase of growth.

This is not a purely theoretical engineering role. It requires technical fluency in hardware/software integration, ownership of formal government artifacts (CDRLs/SDRLs), and the executive presence to serve as a primary technical interface for DoD customers and certification authorities.
