Join us and build a career that matters! Position Overview: The Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) position will support the government customer in migrating legacy modeling, simulation, and analysis tools, algorithms, applications, and processes for missile performance analyses into a cloud-native digital engineering pipeline in a phased approach. The primary phase will focus on creating, updating, and refactoring MBSE models and libraries that represent a full end-to-end missile model; these models must be created in the Systems Modeling Language (SysML). Elements of the SysML include, at a minimum, requirements, structures (e.g., mass moments of inertia), and parametric characteristics (e.g., specific impulse). The position requires an active Top Secret Clearance.

Requirements

Bachelor's degree in engineering, science, mathematics, or a related field.
8 years of experience in systems engineering or related experience.
Proven experience applying MBSE to aerospace, mechanical, or related engineering fields.
Basic knowledge of programming concepts and object-oriented programming.
Creating MBSE models via the SysML or other MBSE tools (e.g., Cameo Systems Modeler, Enterprise Architect, MagicDraw).
Having an MBSE certification and training (e.g., Object Management Group, International Council on Systems Engineering, etc.).
Ability to work with a diverse team of engineers to identify modeling requirements.
Demonstrated conscientious and collaborative work habits to help our customers adopt MBSE for missile performance analyses.
Active DoD Top Secret Clearance with SCI eligibility is required.

Nice To Haves

5 or more years of experience applying SysML for aerospace engineering applications (design of rocket propulsion systems, phased array antenna sensor systems, or other complex areas).
Experience with SysML v2.
Working knowledge of the United Architecture Framework and the Department of Defense Architecture Framework.
Modeling and simulation experience using AFSIM to include plugin development, architecture, and integration methodologies.
Proven experience developing models for weapon systems/vehicles for wartime scenarios.
Multi-disciplinary expertise with proficiency in at least one additional technical area.

Responsibilities

Host missile models in SysML using existing engineering data analyses, alongside subject-matter experts.
Create a scalable workflow for generating new missile models in SysML.
Apply and test that scalable workflow on a single missile model.
Constructively work with our customers to optimize the SysML model development workflow.
