Our system-of-system architecture team serves highly visible programs and RTX projects, performing highly technical assignments, directly contributing to protecting our nation and our war fighters. Specifically, we are looking for experienced systems architects with experience in developing useful architectures while synthesizing information from multiple stakeholders, representing these architectures in frameworks such as UAF, DoDAF, TOGAF, Zachman, etc., using Cameo to generate appropriate SysML and other artifacts, and then following through with the implementation teams to develop understanding, deconflict interfaces, and ensure mission success.

The applicant for this position would be an experienced system architect or system engineer currently developing systems, enterprise, and/or software architecture, with documented experience leading projects and teams. The applicant would have developed engineering solutions at many points of the product lifecycle and would have notable breadth and depth of domain knowledge derived from significant experience in one or more areas of national defense.
