Models Based Systems Engineer

Responsibilities

Be part of a fast-paced, high energy, team as an early adopter and leader in the digital transformation of systems engineering.

To engineer increasingly complex systems and capabilities, the government is transforming legacy systems engineering methods and processes. Central to the transformation is the adoption of Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) as the means to manage complexity, increase engineering quality, and ultimately drive cost and schedule efficiencies into the acquisition process.

As an industry leader in systems and mission engineering, Arcfield is actively hiring MBSE and mission modelers and subject matter experts to drive this transformation across the government. Arcfield is seeking candidates who can help lead the transformation through application of MBSE industry best practices, develop MBSE processes and methodologies to deliver effective mission solutions, and apply MBSE experience to modeling mission systems.

For this position, the selected candidate is responsible for participating in teams that help drive the adoption of MBSE in both customer and company domains. The candidate should have knowledge of modeling systems in SysML, or UML languages and/or experience with MatLab and other analytic engineering tools. Foundational to MBSE are tools, technologies, and methodologies that can collectively be called digital engineering. The selected candidate should demonstrate knowledge of industry MBSE tools to successfully produce systems engineering models.Works on assignments requiring considerable judgment and initiative. Develops solutions to routine technical problems of limited scope following detailed instructions. Work is supervised. 

• Assess engineering artifacts and develop models of mission systems using a MBSE tool suite that includes Cameo, STK, AFSIM and other COTS tools. The candidate should have knowledge of SysML, UML or industry standard modelling languages.
• Apply systems engineering modeling methodologies to develop mission models. Knowledge of DoDAF with UPDM or UAF meta-model frameworks is desired.
• Integrate enterprise tools and develop MBSE-based processes to support requirements engineering, Config Mgt processes, CONOPS and architecture development, Risk, Issues and Opportunity Management boards, schedule management, test and verification strategy development, and system integration of new initiatives in support of expanded mission capabilities.
• Knowledge of Mission Engineering is desired especially as tied to analysis of alternatives, mission gap assessments, and wargaming.
• Facilitate collaborative meetings between the MBSE modelers and stakeholders to deliver mission needs and help innovate potential solutions.
• Provides technical advice and guidance to senior managers regarding the creation and implementation of new MBSE methods and techniques.

Qualifications

• BS 0-2 Years or HS 6-8
• BS in engineering (i.e. Aerospace, Systems Eng), physics, programming or related technical degree
• Demonstrated knowledge and practical application of UML / SysML modeling languages, Python, Java Script, and experience applying these to MBSE solutions.
• Demonstrated knowledge of Cameo or other UML based Architecture modeling tools.
• Knowledge of standard DoDAF architectural frameworks to include UPDM and/or UAF.
• Experience with systems engineering processes in support of system life cycle development.
• Basic knowledge of architecture, requirements engineering, CONOPS development, verification, test and system integration to accommodate End to End Systems Engineering.
• Demonstrated communication skills especially with tools developers and senior government officials.
• Strong business acumen; ability to relate professionally in the work environment with customers and colleagues.
• Responsible and reliable; follows up on actions and the ability to multi task.
• No clearance required. Must be eligible to submit background investigation for TS/SCI with poly, and be able to successfully crossover with the supported client.
• Experience with Python and Java script and application in MatLab and other analytic tools
