As a Principal Systems Engineering Architect, the successful candidate will lead mission architecture and technical integration of REACTOR and its Cognitive Decision Aids (CDAs) across c-UAS, IAMD, and broader multi-domain missions.The role translates operational needs into architectures, requirements, interfaces, verification strategies, and deployment-ready technical baselines.The role translates operational needs into architectures, requirements, interfaces, verification strategies, and deployment-ready technical baselines.The successful candidate will work across mission engineering, software-intensive systems, C2 integration, sensor/track data, and AI-enabled decision support. This role ensures REACTOR capabilities such as threat prioritization, weapon-target assignment, flight-path prediction, and future course-of-action aids are operationally meaningful, coherent, testable, and extensible. Strong collaboration across product, engineering, AI/ML, integration, test, customers, and leadership is essential.QualificationsBachelors degree in systems engineering, computer science, applied mathematics, or a related technical field with at least 10 years of applicable experience; or a masters degree with at least 8 yearsStrong systems engineering experience spanning mission analysis, architecture, requirements, interfaces, integration, verification/validation, and operational evaluationExperience architecting or integrating software-intensive defense or mission systems involving sensors, tracks, C2, effectors, or decision-support capabilitiesWorking knowledge of c-UAS, air and missile defense, kill-chain / kill-web concepts, or closely related mission systemsHands-on project experience applying Model-Based Systems Engineering / Model-Based Engineering methods using tools such as Cameo Systems Modeler, IBM Rhapsody, Sparx Enterprise Architect, or comparable platformsExperience developing system or software architectures using MBSE/MDE tools and languages such as Cameo, Enterprise Architect, SysML, UML, or equivalentExperience defining interfaces and data exchanges and performing technical trade studies across mission performance, integration risk, cybersecurity, and deployment constraintsDemonstrated ability to coordinate cross-functional technical stakeholders and drive decisions to closureUnited States CitizenshipDesired Skills and Domain ExperienceHands-on experience with c-UAS, IAMD, counter-rocket/artillery/mortar, air defense, fires, or multi-domain C2 systemsKnowledge of target tracking, sensor fusion, combat identification, threat evaluation, engagement planning, weapon-target assignment, or engagement timeline analysisExperience integrating with military C2 ecosystems, tactical networks, sensor/effector systems, or common tactical data/message standardsExperience with AI/ML-enabled mission applications, including uncertainty, explainability, human-machine teaming, performance characterization, and operational test considerationsExperience with mission or digital engineering, simulation, requirements traceability, or model-based test and evaluationFamiliarity with DevSecOps, cloud/edge deployment, containerized services, distributed data architectures, and degraded or disconnected operationsActive or recent DoD security clearanceKey ResponsibilitiesLead system and mission architecture for REACTOR deployments and product extensions across c-UAS, IAMD, and multi-domain mission problemsTranslate operational concepts, mission threads, customer needs, and product objectives into architectures, system requirements, interfaces, and measurable acceptance criteriaArchitect end-to-end decision workflows and define how REACTOR CDAs consume mission, sensor, track, policy, and resource information to support operator decisions and automationDevelop and maintain MBSE artifacts and ensure coherence across system/software architecture, AI/ML components, data models, cybersecurity, interfaces, and deployment environmentsDefine interface control needs and data contracts for sensors, track sources, C2 systems, effectors, and external systems; promote MOSA principles and reusable services across domainsPartner with Product Management and feature leads to define implementable features, verification plans, demos, and acceptance criteria; perform trade studies and drive technical risk reductionLead or support integration planning, technical reviews, verification and validation, test events, demonstrations, and operational performance analysisServe as a senior systems engineering and architecture authority, mentoring teams and communicating technical recommendations, tradeoffs, and mission concepts to customers and leadershipCamgian Culture and Core Value TraitsAbility to work as part of a team while maintaining independent thinkingSelf-driven and self-starter in addition to excellent communication skillsThinking outside the box and an aptitude for innovation and problem solvingAlways willing to explore the other side of fear, be challenged and to crave cutting edge technologies
