Systems Requirements Engineer

Systems Requirements Engineer Role Summary The Systems Requirements Engineer is responsible for eliciting, analyzing, documenting, managing, and maintaining system requirements throughout the product development lifecycle. This role ensures stakeholder needs are translated into clear, complete, verifiable, and traceable system requirements that guide design, implementation, verification, and validation activities.

The engineer collaborates across multiple engineering disciplines to deliver high-quality products while maintaining compliance with organizational and industry standards.

Key Responsibilities

Requirements

Development Capture stakeholder, customer, regulatory, and business requirements. Develop high-quality system requirements using established requirements engineering best practices. Ensure requirements are clear, complete, consistent, feasible, testable, and traceable. Define requirement acceptance criteria, verification methods, and operating conditions.

Requirements

Analysis & Decomposition Analyze customer needs and convert them into system features and requirements. Perform requirements decomposition and allocation to subsystems and components. Support system architecture development and ensure requirement alignment. Identify gaps, conflicts, assumptions, and dependencies. Traceability Management Establish and maintain bidirectional traceability from: Customer Needs / VoC Features System Requirements Architecture Elements Verification & Validation Activities Manage traceability throughout the development lifecycle.

Verification & Validation Support Define verification methods (Test, Analysis, Inspection, Demonstration). Support development of verification plans and test cases. Ensure requirements are measurable and verifiable. Change Management Support Change Request (CR) management and impact analysis. Assess technical, schedule, cost, and risk impacts.

Maintain requirements baselines and configuration control. Process Compliance Support compliance with ASPICE, Functional Safety, Cybersecurity, and organizational development processes. Participate in audits and process assessments. Contribute to continuous process improvement initiatives.
