Boeing Phantom Works, the advanced research and development division within Boeing Defense, Space, and Security is building the future ? creating innovative solutions that will define the next generation of aerospace and defense. We lead the company's modeling and simulation efforts, develop innovative concepts and technologies, and prototype solutions to address current and emerging needs. Boeing Phantom Works is pushing the boundaries of what can be to what will be, and investing in the right technology today. We are rapidly intersecting the present and the future to connect, protect, explore, and inspire – one innovative idea at a time!

The Phantom Works Systems Engineering Integration and Test (SEIT) team is seeking a Senior Systems Engineer to lead the Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) architecture development effort on one of multiple proprietary programs.   On these programs, Systems Engineering is being executed utilizing model-based methods so the candidate must have both an understanding of MBSE tools and processes and a background in Systems Engineering.  The Senior MBSE Architect will tailor the MBSE approach to the program, lead the cross-functional program team in developing the System Architecture in Cameo, plan and coordinate model-based design reviews, and guide and integrate the System Architecture with other tools in the Digital Ecosystem.  They will coordinate with internal stakeholders, external customers, and suppliers to integrate models, ensure the MBSE approach is understood, and verify adherence to modeling standards.  Additionally, the candidate will guide requirements development, interface management, trade studies, verification and test planning, in coordination with the lead System Engineer and System Engineering team, as applicable.  The ability to work in a collaborative team environment on-site and across engineering disciplines will be imperative to this role.  The selected individual will work in a fast paced, innovative environment where excellent technical, organizational, leadership, written and verbal communications skills are essential. This position is located in St. Louis MO.

Primary Responsibilities:

• Lead program wide cross-functional teams in developing the System Architecture to meet program commitments, including leadership of model-based design reviews
• Influence strategic direction and leverage Systems Engineering and MBSE experience to implement, maintain and refine the MBSE approach shape the digital engineering environment and meet customer objectives  
• Lead and shape Systems Engineering efforts using model-based methods including development of key artifacts such as requirements decomposition, system architecture; specifications, systems engineering and program plans, interfaces, risk assessment and mitigation, validation and verification planning, overall integration and test.
• Advocate for program and division needs in collaborative MBSE workshops with and across divisions with a focus on establishing a common MBSE approach
• Mentor and advise less experienced MBSE Architects in SysML and Systems Engineering
• Guide cross program/domain integration of the System Architectures into the Digital Engineering Ecosystem to establish digital models as an integral part of the technical baseline.
• Lead interdisciplinary, collaborative approaches to plan, design, develop and verify complex systems solutions
• Establish, maintain, and demonstrate traceability between the requirements, analysis, and design being developed in the Digital Systems Models within the DE Ecosystem.
• Lead Internal Research and Development efforts to expand the MBSE capability within Phantom Works
• Identify and manage program technical metrics using model based approaches
• Shape and lead MBSE proposal efforts across the organization
• Serve as a Technical Lead Engineer, guiding the efforts of less experienced MBSE Architects
