Description
JOB SUMMARY:
The Model-Based Systems Engineer (MBSE) applies an interdisciplinary engineering approach to ‘whole system’ design by defining requirements, analysis, verification, and validation with modeling and simulation tools using industry best standards, in place of the documentation used for traditional Systems Engineering. Applies Systems Engineering principles as defined by the Warfighting Acquisition University (WARU) Systems Engineering Process Model to a system throughout its life cycle, from development through production, deployment, training support, operation, and disposal-as defined by customer requirements.
Applies a logical sequence of activities and decisions that transforms an operational need into a description of system performance parameters and a preferred system configuration. The Model-Based Systems Engineer works together with project managers and the engineering team to ensure that design work aligns with customer requirements in a way that can be verified early in the design process. The MBSE also works through each phase of the given system and process, from plan along with expansion to validation and operation, on measurable risk assessment, regularly concentrating on performance, testing, scheduling, and budgets.
The MBSE uses a digital engineering approach to develop a system-of-systems model that serves as the authoritative source of truth during design, development, sustainment and retirement of a system. The Model-Based Systems Engineer is also central to the development of Modular Open Systems Approach (MOSA) requirements and design.
This role satisfies Defense program contractual requirements which are referenced in the WARU Systems Engineering Guidebook
