## About the Role

* US citizenship and an active DoD Secret clearance
 * Bachelor degree in a STEM discipline with 3+ years supporting missile defense or large-scale, complex DoD programs.
 * Demonstrated proficiency with SysML (Systems Modeling Language) and core systems engineering frameworks (DoDAF, UAF).
 * Hands-on experience with industry-standard MBSE modeling tools (e.g., Cameo Systems Modeler / Cameo Enterprise Architect , MagicDraw, Sparx Enterprise Architect).
 * Ability to distill complex system architectures into clear, concise diagrams, technical documentation, and briefings for multidisciplinary stakeholders.

Desired Qualifications

 * Bachelor's in systems Engineer, Computer Science, or Software Engineering
 * 7+ years supporting missile defense or large-scale, complex DoD programs.
 * Experience supporting MDA programs (e.g., Targets and Countermeasures, Ground-Based Midcourse Defense, THAAD, Aegis BMD, or C2BMC).
 * OMG-Certified Systems Modeling Professional ( OCSMP ) certification (Fundamental, Intermediate, or Advanced).
 * Working knowledge of requirement management tools (e.g., DOORS , Cameo Requirements Plugin) and issue-tracking platforms (Jira, Confluence).
 * Experience integrating MBSE models with analytical/simulation environments (e.g., MATLAB/Simulink, Python, or OpenMBEE).
 * Familiarity with DoD Systems Engineering processes, CDRLs, and technical baseline governance.

## Description

* Develop and maintain descriptive system models using SysML to capture system behaviors, structure, interfaces, and operational requirements across MDA programs.
 * Map system-level and component-level requirements directly to architecture artifacts, ensuring end-to-end traceability, verification matrices, and baseline integrity.
 * Support the implementation of MDA Digital Engineering initiatives by linking MBSE models with external tools, simulations, and data repositories.
 * Assist in preparing and presenting model-centric artifacts for major program milestone reviews (e.g., SRR, PDR, CDR, CCBs).
 * Conduct architectural trade studies, analyze interface definition documents (IDDs/ICDs), and model system interfaces to identify gaps and resolve integration risks.
 * Maintain version control and configuration baseline compliance for SysML models in accordance with program data management standards.
