From Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
Description
Are you motivated to apply your systems engineering skills to inform the future of our nation’s space control architecture?
Are you an “end-to-end systems thinker" with Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) experience who is looking to have an impact on our National Security Space & Civil Space programs?
Are you passionate about working on complex challenges by applying advanced systems engineering and development principles and applying digital engineering tools and techniques to revolutionize how complex systems are designed and developed?
If so, we're looking for someone like you to join our team at APL!
We are seeking a Mission Engineer to perform development of national security space missions and systems-of-systems modeling for space control architectures in a digital engineering environment using Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) techniques & practices. You will be working with a hardworking team of engineers to provide vital mission engineering, systems engineering, and software engineering expertise to nationally important space capabilities.
As a part of our team...
Your primary responsibility will be to develop and utilize system models for the design and implementation of complex systems and systems-of-systems critical to the warfighter.
You will collaborate with multi-disciplinary teams of subject matter experts to develop engineering models for the purpose of informing decision makers, simplifying design and test, and understanding system performance.
You will create and maintain descriptive Systems Modeling Language (SysML) based systems models using MBSE methods and tools.
You will support or lead efforts on multiple programs and solicit stakeholder needs for mission engineering and architecture implementation.
You will provide mission engineering and MBSE expertise to the entire engineering team.
Qualifications
You meet our minimum qualifications for the job if you have...
A Bachelor’s degree in systems engineering, computer science, physics, mathematics, statistics, or other engineering or related discipline.
5+ years of professional experience in systems engineering, space systems, national security architectures, and/or MBSE practices and techniques
Systems architecting/Mission Engineering experience with MBSE modeling tools using associated modeling software, such as Cameo, Rhapsody, or SPARX EA.
Demonstrated experience defining and refining space architectures
Strong analytical, verbal, written, interpersonal, and critical thinking skills
A drive to explore novel techniques and work with similarly-minded experts to conceive, propose, and execute your own internal research projects
Experience with modeling, simulation, or performance analysis of space systems and constellations, or physics-based modeling for space applications
Ability to travel up to 10% as needed
Hold an active Top Secret security clearance and can ultimately obtain TS/SCI level clearance. If selected, you will be subject to a government security clearance investigation and must meet the requirements for access to classified information. Eligibility requirements include U.S. citizenship.
You'll go above and beyond our minimum requirements if you...
Have a Master’s Degree or higher in engineering or related technical field
Have relevant Object Management Group (OMG), INCOSE certification, Graduate Certificate or other systems engineering certifications
Experience building modeling and simulation systems and models to assess space-based systems, tracking systems, or communications networks
Experience with digital engineering methodologies, standards, and the DoD Digital Engineering Strategy
Have experience or knowledge of higher-level programming languages (e.g. Python, C++, Java) and analysis tools (MATLAB)
Have demonstrated experience incorporating various AI models into your workflow
