Systems Engineer, Architect, and Requirements Engineer
About The Position
We are seeking Systems Engineers / Architecture & Requirements Engineers to support system-level engineering across a complex, interconnected platform environment. These engineers will contribute to requirements analysis, architecture development, interface definition, technical planning, traceability, change-impact analysis, and technical reviews across the platform lifecycle. Working closely with architecture and integration leadership, this role will help translate customer objectives into actionable engineering requirements and ensure those requirements remain connected to architecture, interfaces, implementation, and verification. The ideal candidate is comfortable working across multiple technical disciplines and can bridge the details between software, cloud, infrastructure, networking, security, and data engineering teams.
Requirements
- Active TS/SCI clearance with CI Polygraph.
- Approximately 6–10 years of experience in systems engineering, requirements engineering, architecture, integration, or a related technical discipline.
- BS and 6 years of experience. An additional 4 years of experience may be considered in lieu of a degree.
- Demonstrated experience with requirements analysis, system interfaces, architecture, and technical documentation.
- Ability to work across multiple technical disciplines, including software, cloud, infrastructure, networking, security, and data.
- Experience supporting system-level integration and technical reviews.
- Experience with requirements traceability, technical planning, or change-impact analysis.
- Strong analytical, technical writing, and communication skills.
Nice To Haves
- Experience with SysML, UAF, or Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE).
- Experience with Cameo or comparable systems modeling tools.
- NRO or Intelligence Community architecture standards or mission engineering experience.
- Experience with API and interface design.
- Experience with hybrid cloud and Kubernetes environments.
- Experience with requirements-management tools and formal requirements traceability practices.
Responsibilities
- Analyze and decompose technical objectives into clear, actionable, and implementable engineering requirements.
- Develop and maintain traceability between requirements, architecture, interfaces, implementation, and verification evidence.
- Evaluate proposed requirement changes and assess technical, schedule, interface, and operational impacts.
- Coordinate requirements interpretation and clarification with platform owners, engineering teams, and customer stakeholders.
- Support requirements baselining and ongoing management as technical and mission needs evolve.
- Develop and maintain architecture artifacts, interface descriptions, dependency views, and supporting technical documentation.
- Support the definition of APIs, service interfaces, trust relationships, data exchanges, and cross-platform dependencies.
- Analyze relationships between systems and platforms to identify technical dependencies, integration points, and potential impacts.
- Conduct engineering trade studies and document technical recommendations, decisions, and associated rationale.
- Support architecture modeling and Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) activities where appropriate.
- Partner with architecture and integration teams to ensure system-level technical decisions are reflected in requirements and engineering documentation.
- Prepare for and support architecture, requirements, design, and technical review activities.
- Track technical actions, interface issues, engineering decisions, and review findings through closure.
- Coordinate with Integration & Test Engineers to ensure requirements have clear, measurable, and verifiable criteria.
- Support configuration management and change-impact analysis for evolving platform services and capabilities.
- Evaluate proposed technical changes for impacts across requirements, interfaces, architecture, implementation, and verification.
- Collaborate across software, cloud, infrastructure, networking, cybersecurity, data, and platform engineering disciplines.
- Support technical planning and system-level integration activities across interconnected platforms.
- Identify gaps, inconsistencies, and dependencies across engineering artifacts and work with technical teams to resolve them.
- Translate complex technical information into clear engineering documentation and recommendations for technical and customer stakeholders.
