Booz Allen Hamilton•El Segundo, CA

3d•$62,000 - $141,000•Hybrid

About The Position

Booz Allen is hiring an MBSE & Digital Threads Engineer to build and maintain interdisciplinary digital models that carry mission-critical systems from concept through their full lifecycle. The role supports government and other mission-critical programs involving space and ground systems, including positioning, navigation, and timing systems. It sits at the intersection of systems engineering, architecture, and data, connecting specifications, interfaces, milestone products, and digital threads so engineering teams can evaluate decisions using consistent evidence. The engineer will develop system models, architectures, and related engineering products; apply Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) to specifications, interface control documents, and architecture views; and support program milestone reviews with clear analysis and reliable artifacts. The role also uses scripting, coding, or low/no-code automation to improve model quality and reduce repetitive work, and contributes to generative AI capabilities for MBSE by connecting engineering models and products with inference workflows, human review, and quality checks. The engineer works with government clients, contractor teammates, and internal partners. At the senior end, the role shapes the technical approach, leads work through milestone reviews, and mentors others. The position is hybrid, with work expected at a Booz Allen or customer facility in line with leadership expectations and role needs. A Secret clearance and a bachelor’s degree in a STEM field are required. The projected annual salary range is $62,000 to $141,000. Booz Allen describes a broad benefits package that includes health, life, disability, financial, and retirement benefits, paid leave, professional development, tuition assistance, work-life programs, and dependent care.
