Who We AreHII - Mission Technologies is seeking a Systems Engineer. The Systems Engineer develops, implements, and manages Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) strategies, tools, and processes across the enterprise to support complex system development efforts. This role generates quantifiable system requirements based on customer needs, system-planning activities, and acquisition logistics, ensuring that all requirements comply with client expectations and Government standards through formal verification methods. The engineer translates high-level product strategies into detailed, actionable system specifications and collaborates with multidisciplinary engineering teams to derive lower-level implementation requirements. Additional responsibilities include integrating system elements, designing and modifying interfaces, establishing engineering standards and processes, and applying open-systems architectures such as MOSA and SOSA to improve system performance, affordability, and reconfigurability.
This requisition supports hiring multiple positions and experience levels. Final placement will be determined based on the selected applicant's qualifications, experience, and skill sets.
