Multiple Locations Mission-Critical Programs $140K$190K

Overview:

We are actively building a pipeline of high-impact Systems Engineers (TS/SCI) to support a portfolio of mission-critical programs across DoD and Intelligence Community environments.

This role sits at the center of complex system deliveryconnecting requirements architecture integration and validation across large-scale multi-domain systems.

If youre driven to solve complex engineering challenges and bring end-to-end systems to life this is an opportunity to work on programs that define the future of national security advanced platforms and next-generation capabilities.

What Youll 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

Preferred:

• 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):
