Chief Technology Officer Base pay range:
$70.00/hr - $78.00/hr Position Summary
We are seeking a Senior Systems Architect with 15+ years of overall engineering experience and deep expertise in Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) to lead the design, integration, and governance of complex systems across their full lifecycle. This role will drive MBSE implementation, ensure alignment between business, technical, data, and cybersecurity domains, and serve as a key contributor to the enterprise digital engineering strategy. The ideal candidate will bring technical depth, leadership skills, and cross-domain collaboration experienceparticularly with Data Architects and Cybersecurity Architectsto ensure systems are data-driven, secure, and aligned with enterprise and mission objectives. Key Responsibilities
Define and maintain system architectures using MBSE methodologies, leveraging tools such as Cameo/MagicDraw, Capella, Rhapsody. Model system requirements, behavior, structure, and interfaces using SysML and related modeling languages. Lead the development and evolution of the system model as a central, authoritative reference throughout the lifecycle. Cross-Disciplinary Collaboration
Collaborate with Data Architects to integrate system data flows, ontologies, and metadata into architecture models. Work closely with Cyber Architects to ensure secure system design, threat modeling, and compliance with cybersecurity standards (e.g., NIST, RMF). Drive alignment between systems, data, and security models to support the digital thread and digital twin initiatives. Provide technical leadership across engineering teams and mentor junior engineers on MBSE best practices. Champion the use of digital engineering, model governance, and toolchain integration across the enterprise. Facilitate and lead technical reviews (SRR, PDR, CDR), architecture trade studies, and stakeholder walkthroughs. Lifecycle & Integration
Support systems engineering activities throughout the lifecyclefrom concept development to V&V and sustainment. Ensure model traceability to requirements, test cases, and implementation artifacts. Integrate MBSE with PLM, ALM, and other enterprise tools to enable consistent, model-centric workflows. Process & Compliance
Ensure compliance with industry standards such as INCOSE SE Handbook, ISO/IEC/IEEE 15288, DoDAF, or UAF. Establish modeling conventions, model quality checks, and model repository governance. Required Qualifications
Education:
Bachelors or Masters degree in Systems Engineering, Electrical/Mechanical Engineering, Computer Science, or related technical field. Experience:
15+ years of overall experience in systems engineering, architecture, or related technical disciplines. 5+ years of hands-on MBSE experience applying SysML and MBSE tools in real-world systems development. Demonstrated experience collaborating with both Data and Cybersecurity Architects to deliver integrated, secure, and scalable system solutions. Technical Skills:
Advanced proficiency in MBSE tools (e.g., Cameo Systems Modeler, Rhapsody, Capella, or Enterprise Architect). Solid understanding of secure system design and data architecture principles. Certifications (Preferred):
INCOSE CSEP or ESEP, OMG-Certified Systems Modeling Professional. Seniority level
Mid-Senior level Employment type
