Mission Architecture Analyst / Engineer

Provide technical support to the Office of Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering (OUSD(R&E)) to conduct rigorous mission engineering activities to identify and prioritize investments in capabilities with the potential to meet current and future warfighting needs, close warfighting gaps, and enable Joint Force interoperability and integration. In addition to harness modeling and simulation (M&S) tools and advanced techniques to develop and analyze critical Joint Mission Engineering Threads (METs) / "Kill Webs" in operational scenarios, enabling DoD leaders to make informed technology investment decisions.

Serves as an engineering consultant and technical expert on mission-critical infrastructure and systems.
• Applies professional knowledge of scientific and engineering concepts. principals, phenomena and relationships to assess specific requirements, delineate appropriately engineered designs, and develop preliminary and final design plans, engineering specifications, cost estimates and procurement packages in support of the operation, preventive maintenance and repair of mechanical. electrical, plumbing, utility and mission critical systems and equipment.
• Experience in mission engineering, systems engineering, or operational analysis in support of defense or military areas.
  Experience development or analyzing operational and mission-level architectures (mission threads), kill chains/kill webs, CONOPs, or system-of-systems (SoS) architectures for defense or military areas.
  Experience with mission or system functional decomposition, system-of-systems analysis, or capability gap assessment/analysis.
  Experience with model-based engineering approaches, DoD Architecture Framework (DoDAF), Systems Modeling Language (SysML), Unified Architecture Framework (UAF), or other architecture modeling standards.
  Experience with model-based engineering and architecture tools such as Cameo, MagicDraw, Innoslate, or similar tools.

• 13 years minimum to include:
• 5 years of experience in mission engineering, systems engineering, or operational analysis in support of defense or military areas.
