We are seeking an experienced Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) Modeler with a strong understanding of software development lifecycles and data integration across multiple sources. The ideal candidate will bridge the gap between systems engineering, software engineering, and data management, using MBSE methodologies to drive development decisions, improve traceability, and ensure system alignment with mission and stakeholder needs.

Key Responsibilities:
Develop, maintain, and manage MBSE models (e.g., SysML/UML) to capture system architectures, interfaces, behaviors, and requirements.
Define and model data flows across multiple sources, ensuring consistency, interoperability, and alignment with enterprise-level architectures.
Collaborate with software engineering teams to translate MBSE artifacts into actionable software development tasks and architectures.
Drive software development activities by ensuring requirements, constraints, and interfaces are accurately represented in the system model.
Establish traceability between system requirements, MBSE models, and software implementation.
Support integration of modeling tools with software development environments, CI/CD pipelines, and data management systems.
Facilitate cross-disciplinary collaboration between systems engineers, software developers, and data engineers.
Provide technical expertise in model governance, configuration management, and best practices for MBSE adoption.
Support clients in helping them understand Air Force Digital Materiel Management (DMM) requirements and guidance by applying advanced technical concepts to solve unusually complex problems.
Provide technical direction for junior engineers, project managers, and technicians as a subject matter expert, supporting DMM efforts as needed.

Bachelor's or Master's degree in Systems Engineering, Software Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
10 years working in Systems Engineering, Software Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
5 years Hands-on experience with MBSE methodologies and tools (e.g., Cameo/MagicDraw, Rhapsody, Enterprise Architect, Capella) for software or hardware.
Strong understanding of software development processes (Agile, DevSecOps, CI/CD).
5 years Experience modeling data structures, flows, and integrations across heterogeneous systems.
Proven ability to use MBSE to drive decision-making in software development projects.
Knowledge of system-of-systems architectures, digital engineering practices, and model integration standards (e.g., SysML, UPDM, UAF, DoDAF).
Understanding of requirements derivation, flow down, & management.
Excellent communication and collaboration skills to work across engineering domains.
Attention to detail.
Due to the requirements of our research contracts with the U.S. federal government, candidates for this position must be a U.S. citizen.

While not everyone may possess all of the preferred qualifications, the ideal candidate will bring many of the following:

MS in engineering field, Computer Science, related field or an MBA.
12 years experience in Systems Engineering.
Experience in government, defense, or aerospace programs.
Familiarity with cloud-based architectures, APIs, and data exchange standards.
Experience connecting MBSE models to simulation environments or digital twins.
Demonstrated success in championing MBSE adoption within software development teams.
Experience in leading small technical teams.
Active Security Clearance.

To apply please submit a cover letter addressing each minimum qualification and any applicable preferred qualifications that you meet.
