Mission Systems Architect
to join our team in
Stafford, VA . In this role, you will play a key part in supporting Marine Corps mission engineering initiatives by aligning Modeling, Simulation, Analysis, and Wargaming (MS&A) activities with warfighting experimentation and joint interoperability efforts. You will work closely with stakeholders to plan, coordinate, and execute high-impact projects that directly influence operational readiness and decision-making.
Responsibilities
Define and translate mission objectives into system architectures, requirements, and design specifications in alignment with DoDAF/UAF standards.
Develop mission concepts of operations (CONOPS), operational scenarios, and performance models to ensure comprehensive mission planning and execution.
Apply Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) methods and tools to generate, maintain, and interpret mission architecture views, ensuring traceability between mission needs and technical solutions.
Lead integration, verification, and validation efforts to confirm system readiness and mission success across the program lifecycle.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams and stakeholders—including analysts, warfighters, developers, and subject matter experts—to align mission objectives with system capabilities and drive continuous improvement.
Minimum Qualifications
Minimum of 3 years of experience in systems engineering, software development, or related engineering discipline, with exposure to complex military systems and architectures.
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering, or a related technical field. Additional 2 years of experience may be substituted in lieu of degree.
Hands-on experience applying DoDAF and/or UAF for system architecture definition, visualization, and documentation.
Proficiency with requirements management tools (e.g., DOORS, Jama, Cameo) and model-based systems engineering (MBSE) methodologies, including modeling and simulation tools (e.g., SysML, MATLAB, Simulink).
Strong communication skills with the ability to convey complex technical concepts clearly across multi-disciplinary teams and stakeholders.
Preferred Qualifications
Proficiency in one or more programming languages such as C++, Python, or Java.
Experience with hardware/software integration and familiarity with network architectures and protocols.
Advanced expertise with modeling and simulation tools and technologies (e.g., Cameo & SysML, MATLAB, Simulink, ExtendSim).
Demonstrated success operating in fast-paced, multi-disciplinary environments supporting mission-driven objectives.
Clearance Requirements
Active DoD TS/SCI Clearance with SAP eligibility.
Physical Requirements
Must be able to remain in a stationary position 50% of the time. Occasionally move about inside the office to access file cabinets, office machinery, or to communicate with co-workers, management, and customers via email, phone, and virtual communication, which may involve delivering presentations.
