Model-Based Systems Engineer

Responsibilities

• Lead DE/MBSE planning, stakeholder coordination, roadmap development, technical execution, and delivery of mission-focused digital engineering capabilities aligned to U.S. Space Force priorities.
• Collaborate with government stakeholders to assess data producers and consumers, identify engineering workflow pain points, evaluate digital transformation opportunities, and define a comprehensive DE/MBSE roadmap with objectives, tasks, milestones, and implementation plans.
• Lead the architecture, testing, and implementation of MBSE capabilities, including configuration management, traceability, verification, model-based metrics, information extraction, and related digital engineering workflows.
• Support the development and deployment of an enhanced Digital Engineering Environment architecture by integrating MBSE frameworks, tools, workflows, governance processes, and user-driven acceptance testing.
• Support delivery live training, user enablement, and ongoing governance support to ensure DE/MBSE practices align with evolving policy standards, mission requirements, and continuous process improvement needs.
• Work closely with U.S. Space Force stakeholders, mission engineers, systems engineers, software teams, tool administrators, and cross-functional partners to ensure successful implementation, adoption, and sustainment of DE/MBSE capabilities.

Qualifications

• BS 8-10, MS 6-8, PhD 3-5 in Systems Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical discipline.
• 5+ years of relevant hands-on systems engineering experience, with demonstrated exposure to Digital Engineering and Model-Based Systems Engineering implementation.
• Strong experience architecting, developing, testing, and deploying MBSE and DE solutions in support of complex government or defense programs.
• Demonstrated expertise with advanced MBSE capabilities, including configuration management, traceability, verification, model-based metrics, information extraction, and digital workflow implementation.
• Technical knowledge of system architecture, MBSE frameworks, digital engineering environments, modeling tools, and model-based lifecycle processes.
• Experience supporting government projects, including the transition of engineering solutions from R&D, prototype, or pilot phases into operational or production use.
• Proven ability to work directly with government stakeholders, mission engineers, program offices, and cross-functional technical teams.
• Strong analytical, problem-solving, communication, and facilitation skills, with the ability to translate mission needs into practical technical solutions.
• Experience delivering user training, governance support, implementation guidance, or process refinement for DE/MBSE adoption.
