- Identify and lead resolution of cross-system and cross-organizational conflicts.
- Establish and lead system-level architecture, interface, design, and integration reviews.
- Coordinate technical activities among project management, customers, engineering organizations, architect-engineers, suppliers, and other stakeholders.
- Ensure technical decisions are documented, traceable, and incorporated into affected engineering baselines.
- Oversee requirements decomposition, allocation, validation, traceability, and interface control.
- Establish technical expectations for system-level verification and validation.
- Coordinate system-level technical-risk identification, evaluation, and resolution.
- Lead evaluation of engineering changes having cross-system impacts.

- Provide technical direction for systems engineering plans, estimates, schedules, bids, proposals, and execution strategies.
- Be a senior technical interface with customers and other external partners.
- Mentor Senior and Principal Systems Engineers.
- Develop systems engineering and technical-leadership capability across the organization.
- Lead continuous improvement of systems engineering processes, methods, tools, and practices.
- Represent systems engineering in project-level technical decisions.
