The Opportunity
Join BAE Systems Air & Space Force Solutions and be part of a diverse and enthusiastic team who solves some of the worlds most complex technical challenges. Contributing day-to-day for the Hill Air Force Base BAE team is refreshing, and the flexibility in the work week is unmatched. For the sixth consecutive year, BAE was named among the Salt Lake Tribunes "Top Workplaces," by its employees, earning special distinction for providing a healthy work-life balance for our valued employees. We work very hard to ensure this is a great place to work!
There is never a dull moment on this strategic effort, a cornerstone for the nation’s security. The Sentinel Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) Program will completely replace the aging Minuteman III (MMIII) ICBM, an undertaking not performed in over 50 years. This program is considered a “mega-project” and one of the most complex in the history of the Department of Defense. The new ICBM weapon system acquisition effort brings with it the newest digital engineering tools and Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) practices to meet existing warfighter requirements, while having the adaptability and flexibility to affordably address changing technology and threat environments through 2075. As part of the U.S. Air Forces Integration Support Contract (ISC), BAE Systems provides advisory and assistance services in the areas of engineering, logistics, management, scientific analysis, and other subject matter expertise to augment and optimize management of the Sentinel ICBM Prime Contractor.

What We Offer:

• A challenging and rewarding opportunity to shape the development and deployment of the next generation intercontinental ballistic missile.

• A high-performance, high-morale workplace.

• Opportunities for professional growth and development.

• Collaborative and dynamic team environment.
