Position Summary

We are seeking candidates who are passionate about operational testing and the research, systems engineering, design, and integration of capabilities required to create a multi-domain operations environment for the testing of signature modernization efforts. This position provides research, and supports the development of UAF/DODAF views tailored to the systems engineering and integration (SE&I) efforts for the future development of capabilities for the MDO environment needed for the operational testing of Future Vertical Lift, Maneuver (XM30 and Robotic Combat Vehicle), Intelligence Electromagnetic Warfare & Cyber (TITAN/TLS), and Next Generation Command and Control (NGC2) Systems Under Test (SUT).

The selected candidate will work at our office in Killeen, TX, four days a week, with one day of remote work per week. This role is responsible for developing viewpoints (Operational, Service, etc.) and model-based systems engineering (MBSE) models that demonstrate what additional capabilities are needed for the MDO environment that supports the operational testing of future vertical lift, XM-30/RCV, & TITAN/TLS systems under test. Additionally, outputs from the SE&I effort support the development of test functions and objectives as part of future course of action development that will be submitted to the government. This position will report to the Innovation Cell Manager.

This is an exciting opportunity to pioneer the product development of the MDO Environment and associated Data planning, preparation, monitoring, and assessment tools for Operational Test environments. This role will require creativity and innovation to combine the discipline of Systems Engineering with larger program and corporate objectives.
