Facilitate Integrated Product Teams (IPT’s) and Engineering working groups that will review and assess the maturity of engineering Artifacts, CONOPS, Interfaces, and Architecture products. Support space, ground, and enterprise teams developing architecture and requirement baselines, establishing and assessing mission capabilities, assessing system and segment schedule and risks, and supporting test and verification strategy. Daily interaction with the customer and supporting contractors and follow customer standards and processes as the program matures through the life cycle. Provide project management support with short turn-around projects; development of requirements, project plans, needs assessment, and transition planning. Assist in the creation of quantifiable requirements based on customer description, system planning and design, and acquisition logistics. Ensure requirements comply with client requirements and government standards through formal verification methods. Assess performance using evaluation criteria and technical performance measures. Participate in design reviews to ensure applicability to the current system and traceability of requirements through compliance verification and validation. Coordinate Technical Exchange Meetings (TEM). Participate in the adoption of MBSE in both customer and company domains. Apply the principles of MBSE to major system acquisitions in the GEOINT domain. Assess engineering artifacts and develop models of mission systems using a MBSE tool suite that includes DOORS Next Generation, Cameo and other COTS tools. Facilitate and/or participate in collaborative meetings between the GEOINT space system subject matter experts (SMEs) and MBSE and SysML experts to identify and implement modeling solutions. Qualifications What We Need from You (REQUIRED): Must posses and be able to maintain a TS/SCI clearance with Polygraph. 12 to 15 years with BS/BA or 10 to 13 years with MS/MA, or PhD 10+ in Technical degree/STEM (engineering, physics, etc.) Strong Systems Engineering background with a focus on core systems engineering processes in support of end-to-end mission and services closure. Demonstrated experience in Systems Engineering area(s) including but not limited to: Requirements Engineering, Systems Integration, Risk, Issue, and Opportunity (RIO). GEOINT Domain knowledge of customer's mission capabilities (particularly with EO systems) and overall space and ground architecture. Experience in supporting Requirements Engineering, CONOPS development, and system integration to accommodate End to End Systems Engineering. Experience identifying user needs and gaps, identifying potential solutions, and assessing/analyzing alternatives. Demonstrated ability to identify and solve problems to further organizational goals. Commitment to understand, recognize, respect, and operate effectively within various SETA, Federally Funded Research and Development (FFRDC), and Governmental lines of authority. Demonstrated excellent communication skills and the ability to lead/support multiple projects simultaneously.
