  • Collaborate with systems engineers and technical stakeholders to ensure models accurately represent platform architectures and engineering requirements.
  • Maintain model quality, consistency, traceability, and configuration across multiple platform models.
  • Use model data to support engineering analysis, technical decision-making, and communication across engineering disciplines.
  • Identify opportunities to improve modeling practices, digital engineering workflows, and model usability.
  • Contribute to engineering efforts that support the continued reliability and effectiveness of Submarine Force tactical and strategic communications infrastructure.

  • 3+ years of experience in systems engineering, Model-Based Systems Engineering, or a related engineering role.
  • Experience developing and maintaining system models using Cameo Systems Modeler.
  • Ability to develop clear, accurate, and maintainable system architecture and engineering models.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills.
  • Ability to work effectively in a team-oriented environment.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with requirements traceability, architecture development, interface modeling, or engineering analysis.
  • Relevant systems engineering, MBSE, or digital engineering certification or specialized training.
  • Relevant advanced certifications or specialized training.
  • Experience working in cross-functional or customer-facing environments.

Additional Considerations

  • This is a full-time position supporting mission-focused customer environments.
  • Outside employment or activities must not create conflicts of interest with company or customer responsibilities.
