Distinguished MBSE Modeler
About The Position
The University is seeking an experienced Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) Modeler with a strong understanding of software and hardware development lifecycles and data integration across multiple sources. The role bridges systems engineering, software engineering, hardware engineering, and data management, using MBSE methodologies to guide development decisions, improve traceability, and ensure system alignment with mission and stakeholder needs. The position applies advanced technical concepts to help clients understand Air Force Digital Materiel Management (DMM) requirements and guidance and solve unusually complex problems. As a subject matter expert, the Modeler provides technical direction to junior engineers, project managers, and technicians and supports DMM efforts as needed.
Requirements
- Master’s degree in Systems Engineering.
- 20 years working in Systems Engineering, Software Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
- 8 years of hands-on experience with MBSE methodologies and tools (e.g., Cameo/MagicDraw, Rhapsody, Enterprise Architect, Capella) for software and/or hardware.
- Proven experience leveraging MBSE in software development processes, including Agile, DevSecOps, and CI/CD.
- 5 years of experience modeling data structures, flows, and integrations across heterogeneous systems.
- Proven ability to use MBSE to drive decision-making in software development projects.
- Knowledge of system-of-systems architectures, digital engineering practices, and model integration standards (e.g., SysML, UPDM, UAF, DoDAF).
- Proven ability with complex requirements derivation, flow down, and management.
- 10 years of experience engaging with stakeholders to capture requirements, communicate system design, and verify system performance.
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills to work across engineering domains.
- Attention to detail.
- Must be a U.S. citizen due to requirements of the employer’s research contracts with the U.S. federal government.
Nice To Haves
- 25 years of experience in Systems Engineering.
- 10 years of experience in government, defense, or aerospace programs.
- Familiarity with cloud-based architectures, APIs, and data exchange standards.
- Experience connecting MBSE models to simulation environments or digital twins.
- Demonstrated success championing MBSE adoption within software development teams.
- Experience leading small technical teams.
- Active TS Security Clearance.
Responsibilities
- Develop, maintain, and manage MBSE models, such as SysML/UML, to capture system architectures, interfaces, behaviors, and requirements.
- Define and model data flows across multiple sources, ensuring consistency, interoperability, and alignment with enterprise-level architectures.
- Collaborate with software engineering teams to translate MBSE artifacts into actionable software development tasks and architectures.
- Drive software development activities by ensuring requirements, constraints, and interfaces are accurately represented in the system model.
- Establish traceability between system requirements, MBSE models, and software implementation.
- Support integration of modeling tools with software development environments, CI/CD pipelines, and data management systems.
- Facilitate cross-disciplinary collaboration between systems engineers, software developers, and data engineers.
- Provide technical expertise in model governance, configuration management, and best practices for MBSE adoption.
- Help clients understand Air Force Digital Materiel Management (DMM) requirements and guidance and apply advanced technical concepts to solve unusually complex problems.
- Provide technical direction as a subject matter expert to junior engineers, project managers, and technicians, supporting DMM efforts as needed.
