Senior Requirements Engineer- MBSE
About The Position
Peraton is delivering advanced mission planning, digital engineering, and command-and-control capabilities supporting the U.S. Government’s space communications enterprise. The team uses modern model-based systems engineering (MBSE) practices to translate mission needs into precise, traceable, and verifiable technical requirements across a complex, multi-system environment. The Senior Requirements Engineer collaborates with system integrators, architects, and MBSE teams to define, refine, and document mission planning and component-level specifications. The role ensures requirements are clear, consistent, and verifiable, and contributes to authoritative digital engineering artifacts that guide system design and implementation.
Requirements
- Associate degree and 10+ years of experience in a Systems Engineering-related field; or bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Cloud Computing, or a related field and 8+ years of relevant experience; or master’s degree in one of those fields or a related field and 6+ years of relevant experience; or Ph.D. and 3+ years of relevant experience. An additional four years of relevant experience may be substituted for a degree.
- Possess a minimum of Secret clearance with the ability to upgrade to TS/SCI, and maintain the clearance.
- Experience performing requirements engineering or systems engineering in a complex software or system-of-systems environment.
- Ability to derive, decompose, and document system and component requirements based on mission needs, architecture definitions, or MBSE models.
- Experience reviewing or developing system specifications, interface definitions, or digital engineering artifacts.
- Knowledge of requirements management tools or MBSE modeling environments used to capture requirement behavior, architecture, or traceability.
- Experience supporting verification planning, including creation of requirement verification methods, acceptance criteria, or verification artifacts.
- Ability to interpret system models, behavior diagrams, and architecture views to ensure alignment between requirements and system representation.
Nice To Haves
- Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate across engineering, architecture, and integration teams.
- Ability to analyze complex requirements and support disciplined configuration control and traceability.
- Strong organizational and problem-solving skills, with the ability to prioritize work in a multidisciplinary environment.
Responsibilities
- Provide feedback, clarification, and refinement of the Mission Planning Specification in coordination with the System Integrator and architecture teams.
- Derive component-level specifications from mission-level requirements and behaviors represented in the MBSE model.
- Ensure requirements are properly captured, traceable, and aligned with system architecture, interfaces, and model behavior.
- Support creation of requirement verification artifacts for mission planning and component-level requirements, ensuring verifiable acceptance criteria.
- Collaborate with MBSE practitioners to validate that system behavior, interfaces, and architectures accurately reflect requirement intent.
- Participate in technical reviews, requirement walkthroughs, and traceability assessments across engineering disciplines.
Benefits
- Heavily subsidized employee benefits coverage for employees and dependents.
- 25 days of PTO accrued annually, up to a generous PTO cap.
- Eligible to participate in an attractive bonus plan.
