Solution Architect – Digital Thread (Integration)

PeopleTec, Inc. • Huntsville, AL

20h • Onsite

About The Position

PeopleTec is currently seeking a Solution Architect – Digital Thread (Integration) to support our Huntsville, AL location. PeopleTec is hiring an Integration Architect to build the tool proxies and integration layer that connect authoritative engineering tools to the semantic data broker powering our Digital Test Environment's digital thread. This role owns the connectors, direct, mapping, and specified model interfaces that move ontology-aligned linked data between MBSE, CAD/PLM, requirements, simulation, and test tools.

Requirements

• 7+ years in systems or software engineering, with demonstrated delivery of MBSE, digital engineering, or tool integration on complex aerospace or defense programs.
• Hands-on expertise with MagicDraw/Cameo (including DataHub, Cameo Simulation Toolkit, and validation suites), SysML, and Cameo plugin/API development.
• Programming proficiency in Python (required for IoIF-style workflows); proficiency in at least one of Java, JavaScript, or C++.
• Experience integrating engineering tools via REST APIs or equivalent (Teamwork Cloud, DOORS, PLM, simulation tools).
• Working knowledge of Semantic Web Technologies (OWL, RDF, SPARQL, triplestores) sufficient to author queries and consume ontology-aligned data.
• Experience with CI/CD pipelines (GitHub/GitLab), the Atlassian tool suite, and DevSecOps practices.
• Must be a U.S. Citizen
• An active DoD Secret clearance is required to perform this work. Candidates are required to have an active Secret clearance upon hire (or the able to obtain), and the ability to maintain this level of clearance during their employment.

Nice To Haves

• Direct experience with IoIF, DEFII, or comparable semantic data broker implementations.
• Active U.S. DoD SECRET, TOP SECRET, or TS/SCI clearance.
• IBM Rational Rhapsody experience; familiarity with UAF, UPDM, or the UML Testing Profile.
• Test automation experience with Robot Framework or equivalent keyword-driven frameworks.
• Co-simulation orchestration experience across CAD, CFD, FEA, 6DOF, or MATLAB/Simulink.
• Familiarity with SysML v2 and its API/services.
• Familiarity with DoDI 5000.97, the DoD Digital Engineering Strategy, and ITAR/EAR.
• Track record of measurable cycle-time reductions (>20%) or multi-million-dollar cost savings through digital engineering.
• Advanced degree in a related STEM field.

Responsibilities

• Design and build tool proxies (direct, mapping, and specified model interfaces) that exchange linked data between authoritative engineering tools and the central triplestore.
• Integrate MBSE (MagicDraw/Cameo, Rhapsody), requirements (DOORS), CAD/PLM, simulation (MATLAB/Simulink, CFD, FEA, 6DOF), and test automation tools with the semantic data broker.
• Build and orchestrate IoIF-style workflows (Python, Jupyter) that coordinate co-simulations and propagate results back into the digital thread.
• Integrate the digital thread with CI/CD pipelines (GitHub/GitLab, Atlassian) and test automation frameworks so that test artifacts and verification evidence flow into the authoritative repository as linked data.
• Automate generation of engineering artifacts (ICDs, specifications, test procedures, CDRLs) directly from the digital thread.
• Develop Cameo plugins, DataHub configurations, and validation suites that enforce ontology tagging conventions and MBSE acquisition requirements.
• Partner with the Ontology Architect to ensure tool data exchanges conform to the ontology and SSVL validation rules.

Benefits

• continuing-education opportunities
• robust training programs
• "People First" benefits package
