Permanent Full Time, Hybrid Work

Purpose of Role

Weir Marine Engineering is currently looking for a Project Infrastructure Engineer with Software Engineering experience to join our Combat and Control Systems (CCS) Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) team supporting the River Class Destroyer (RCD) Project at the Department of National Defence (DND) Office within the Bluenose building in Dartmouth, NS. The Project Infrastructure Engineer is required to provide expertise in modelling, object orientation, data typing, scripting, data integration, analysis, Application Programming Interface (API) development and Independent Verification & Validation (IV&V) services in support of the Royal Canadian Navy (RCN). The candidate will provide multi-disciplinary engineering and technical services related to the MBSE activities performed across the RCD Program, including interfacing the RCD MBSE framework with new and existing tool sets utilised within the Project, RCN, and DND. The role may also require support other project areas as required, including Integrated Test Evaluation and Acceptance (ITEA), Performance Modelling and Simulation (M&S), Land Based Test Capability (LBTC), and Synthetic Environment Support activities. This is a full-time, permanent position with a combination of working in-office and working from home. This position provides a great opportunity to become immersed in cutting edge technology of the RCN’s future surface combatant fleet and the forefront of modern Canadian MBSE.

What You’ll Do

• MBSE Infrastructure: Common Data Model maintenance and extension; generating, testing, and deploying Data Analysis metrics for complex data sets; developing, documenting, and deploying custom Data Structures for broader use in the MBSE environment; and development of APIs to enable integration with new and existing tool sets.
• Systems Engineering Lifecycle Implementation: Extending the MBSE framework to implement Systems Engineering Lifecycle Standards and Processes, such as those defined in ISO/IEC 15939:2017, ISO/IEC 15288:2015, ISO/IEC 12207:2008, and NASA-SP/6015; supporting Systems Engineering Lifecycle phase reviews; contributing to Systems Design processes; performing Verification, Validation, and Accreditation of developed models.
• Model Based Systems Engineering: Conducting data capture sessions with members of the operational community; developing and verifying system architecture models within the project's MBSE environment; application of a disciplined approach and adherence to MBSE Standards and Processes; supporting reviews of subcontractor developed materials; supporting requirements decomposition, traceability, and verification processes.
• Technical Documentation: Reviewing technical documentation such as System Requirement Specifications, Interface Control Documents, System Design Descriptions; developing, testing, and verifying internal documentation surrounding software and data organization processes.
• Support to client: Maintaining positive, friendly, collaborative relationships with team members, and internal and external stakeholders. Liaison with subject matter experts, DND customers and suppliers.
• Safety First: Demonstrate 100% commitment to our zero harm behaviors in support of our drive towards developing a world class safety culture.

What You’ll Bring

• Mandatory: Must obtain a Government of Canada security clearance, which necessitates Canadian citizenship and a minimum of 10 years of continuous residence in Canada.
• Mandatory: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent experience.
• Mandatory: Skilled in reading, writing, and speaking English, with the ability to effectively communicate at all levels (both in-person and electronically) with peers, supervisors, and clients. Capable of drafting reports and technical correspondence.
• Desirable: Knowledge or experience in a related Software Engineering discipline, such as Data Engineering, API Development, or Cybersecurity.
• Desirable: Familiarity with data modelling languages and MBSE frameworks such as UML, SysML, DODAF, DNDAF and UAF.
• Desirable: Experience implementing the Object Oriented Systems Engineering Method (OOSEM) using Cameo Enterprise Architecture.
• Desirable: Experience developing, testing, and deploying scripts using Java or other Object Oriented Languages.
• Desirable: Experience utilizing the Cameo OpenAPI for customization of Cameo Enterprise Architecture environments.
