About the Role

At G2 Ops, MBSE Engineers specialize in digital system modeling , using SysML, Cameo, and MagicDraw to create interactive models that enhance system design, traceability, and decision-making. Instead of relying on static documentation, you’ll develop dynamic models that integrate with DoD Architecture Frameworks (DoDAF) to support mission-critical defense projects. Your work will shape the future of digital engineering, leveraging automation, simulation, and AI-driven efficiencies to optimize defense and cybersecurity solutions.

What Makes G2 Ops Different?

  • AI & Digital Engineering Leadership – We stay ahead of the competition by embracing AI, automation, and model-based development to improve workflows and decision-making.
  • Growth & Collaboration: Work alongside engineers, developers, and cybersecurity experts in a culture that values teamwork, cross-training, and professional development.
  • Impactful Work: Shape the future of defense and cybersecurity while directly supporting DoD objectives.

What We’re Looking For:

  • Experience: 10+ years in MBSE, digital engineering, or related disciplines.
  • Education: Bachelor's degree in engineering, computer science, or a related field.
  • Skills: Strong analytical mindset, proficiency in MBSE tools (Cameo, MagicDraw), and familiarity with DoDAF.

Why In-Person?

We get it—remote work has its perks. But at G2 Ops, we work with highly sensitive material that require a secure work environment. That means most of our roles require working on-site, either at our San Diego office or at a military customer site .

But here’s the good news:

  • We value work-life balance. While we can’t offer full remote work, we do allow flexible schedules when possible.
  • Our office is awesome! We’ve built a collaborative, high-energy environment where employees enjoy working together and supporting one another.
  • Hands-on experience. You’ll have the unique opportunity to work directly with military personnel, gaining insights and experience you wouldn’t get from a remote position.

Join Us!

This isn’t just another job—it’s a chance to lead the digital transformation of defense engineering . You’ll play a critical role in shaping how MBSE enhances cybersecurity, automation, and decision-making for the Department of Defense.

Quick Reminder , we are seeking a full-time  team member; the continuation of outside employment shall not constitute a conflict with the Company’s interest, including performing work for a customer or competitor.

Congratulations , you made it all the way to the end of this job posting. We look forward to learning more about you!
