Model Based Mission Systems Engineer

Roles and Responsibilities:

As a Model Based Mission Systems Engineer, you will have the opportunity to learn, apply, and continuously improve current Digital Engineering practices to capture stakeholder and system requirements, facilitate discussion and understand digital environments, and enhance the digital engineering culture. Some of the specific responsibilities include:

• Supporting MITRE teams that are assisting government leaders in implementing and adopting Digital Engineering (DE) and Model Based System Engineering (MBSE) practices and tools.
• Contributing to the development of Systems Engineering models that enable government customers to make informed decisions about acquisitions, requirements, design, and execution of a program and/or systems.
• Conducting analysis of current government implementations of DE/MBSE efforts and identifying improvements in digital engineering adoption, execution, and sustainment.
• Apply strategic Systems Engineering, model-based engineering, and digital engineering methods to apply and solve current and emerging digital engineering challenges for the Australian. 
• Provide creative thought leadership to further mature and develop revolutionary digital engineering solutions consisting of people, process, and tools to advance the state-of-the art digital and mission engineering solutions to complex programs for Australia. 
• Continue to build and strengthen international relationships through technology collaboration and common interest between countries to provide a safer world.

Basic Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in engineering, physics, mathematics, or relevant technical discipline.
• A minimum of 5 years of related experience with a bachelor’s degree; or 2 years and a Master’s degree; or a PhD with relevant experience who can immediately contribute; or equivalent combination of related education and work experience.
• Demonstrated ability to exercise systems thinking, knowledge of systems architecture and systems design and development.
• Demonstrated ability to execute technical work in complex, muti-disciplinary and ambiguous situations. 
• Eligible for Australian Negative Vetting Level 2 (NV2) and/or Positive Vetting (PV) clearance
• Strong written, communication, and presentation skills.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Knowledge of Mission Engineering, Analysis of Alternatives, Verification and Validation, Design of Experiments, simulation design and/or data analytics.
• In-depth experience designing, developing, and deploying complex government systems.
• Experience with multi-disciplinary modelling and simulation (physics-level, engineering-level and operational-level) and working across an enterprise at multiple levels of abstraction.
• Understanding and demonstrated application of modern Systems Engineering and systems of Systems Engineering methods, including proficiency with SysML, UML and other modeling tools.
• Experience using modern model-based Systems Engineering (MBSE) tools (e.g., CATIA Magic, DOORS, Rhapsody)
• Ability to travel domestically and internationally, as required.
• Preference given to qualified candidates with current clearance.
