High Speed Systems Engineer
Leidos · Beavercreek, OH · Today
Hybrid$87k–$157k/yrFull-time
Primary Responsibilities
- Lead the structural and behavioral capture of high-speed system architectures in Cameo Systems Modeler / MagicDraw, creating and maintaining unified SysML Logical, Physical, and Allocative views.
- Oversee the creation, maturation, and tracking of constrained-syntax requirements (utilizing EARS-aligned paradigms) to guarantee high-integrity requirement-to-verification traceability and robust test artifact mapping.
- Develop, expand, and maintain complex parametric manufacturing and O&S lifecycle models within scripting environments (Excel, Python, MATLAB) to quantify systemic impacts of design alternatives and drive sensitivity analysis.
- Formulate, manage, and facilitate multi-discipline requirements and architecture working groups to define cross-functional engineering interfaces and establish rigorous open-architecture configuration management.
- Direct the execution of comprehensive trade studies, technical decision briefs, and executive white papers evaluating warfighter utility, manufacturing readiness, and lifecycle cost/benefit tradeoffs.
- Build custom Velocity Template Language (VTL) scripts inside Cameo to automate the generation of dynamic contract deliverables, Interface Control Documents (ICDs), and program milestone design reviews.
- Provide technical leadership within a matrixed team environment
Basic Qualifications
- BS degree in Aerospace Engineering, Systems Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Computer Engineering, Physics, or a related STEM discipline with 4+ years of experience
- Proven proficiency with MBSE methodologies and direct architecture capture using SysML-compliant tools (specifically Cameo Systems Modeler or MagicDraw).
- Hands-on experience developing or managing complex structural allocations (e.g., Block Definition and Internal Block Diagrams from L0 down to subsystem levels) and generating automated documents/reports via scripting (VTL, Python, or MATLAB).
- Demonstrated experience drafting, analyzing, and decomposing technical requirement structures (preferably using EARS or automated requirements management tracking databases like DOORS).
- Strong communication skills with a proven ability to lead small technical teams, align multidisciplinary engineering divisions, and present effectively internally/externally
- Able to work full-time onsite in a controlled area (SCIF environment) with a willingness to travel 10-20% to customer and partner organizations.
- U.S. Citizenship is mandatory.
