What You'll Do:

  • Develop, manage, and trace system requirements across the lifecycle
  • Support system architecture, design, and integration efforts
  • Perform Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) using SysML and related tools
  • Contribute to DoDAF / architecture frameworks and system modeling
  • Lead or support integration, test, and validation (IT&V) activities
  • Coordinate across engineering disciplines to ensure system performance and interoperability
  • Support development of CONOPS, interface definitions, and system documentation
  • Collaborate with stakeholders to ensure mission alignment and delivery

What You Bring:

  • Active Top Secret or TS/SCI clearance (required)
  • 5+ years of experience in systems engineering within complex environments
  • Strong experience with:
    • Requirements development and traceability
    • System integration and validation
    • Cross-functional engineering coordination
  • Familiarity with:
    • MBSE tools (Cameo, MagicDraw, or similar)
    • SysML and system modeling approaches
  • Experience supporting classified or mission-critical programs

:

  • CI or FS Polygraph
  • Experience with:
    • DoDAF or other architecture frameworks
    • Agile or hybrid development environments
    • AI/ML-enabled systems or data-driven architectures
  • Experience supporting DoD, IC, or federal programs

Compensation:

  • Base Salary: $140K – $190K+
  • Higher for poly-cleared and senior/lead-level candidates
  • Full benefits + long-term program stability

Locations:

Primary markets (highest density of cleared talent):

  • Huntsville, AL

Additional opportunities:

  • Tampa, FL
  • San Diego, CA
  • Charleston, SC
  • Dayton, OH

Candidates typically align to a program location; some flexibility may be available depending on assignment.

Why This Opportunity:

  • Work on large-scale, mission-critical systems across defense and intelligence domains
  • Play a central role in end-to-end system delivery—from concept through deployment
  • Gain exposure to advanced engineering frameworks, MBSE, and next-gen system architectures
  • Be part of a high-demand talent network with ongoing opportunities across programs

Apply / Connect:

If you're open to exploring current or upcoming systems engineering opportunities, we'd welcome the chance to connect. Even if timing isn't immediate, we are prioritizing engagement with top cleared engineers as demand continues to accelerate across programs.
