PMA-228 supports the development of the Collaborative Combat Aircraft (CCA) capability for the Navy. The Lead Systems Architect performs total system analysis, design, and development of weapon system requirements and architecture over the acquisition lifecycle necessary to (a) transform operational requirements into a description of system performance parameters and a system configuration; (b) integrate related parameters and ensure compatibility of all logical, functional and physical requirements, interfaces and the standards that describe them; and (c) address systems engineering at the Mission Level to ensure alignment of Programs of Record (POR) to the mission level that translates naval/mission capability packages and capability gaps to terms that are relevant to the program office. Location is on-site as required. A Top Secret/SCI Eligible Security Clearance is required.

Primary Responsibilities

• The Lead Systems Architect ensures mission level models for the PORs establish a partnership with J-6 to develop and refine the Information Support Plan’s (ISPs) either initial development or incremental submittals that must be linked and traced to supporting digital model(s) requirements and policy documentation. The requirements and architectures are developed using a model-centric system engineering approach, employing tools to develop system models in Cameo and SysML that will increase the design efficiencies and accuracies of the system and reduce the cost and lifecycle timeline to achieve an integrated, balanced total system that meets cost, schedule, and performance objectives in naval aviation's unique operating environment over the entire life cycle.
• Develop and review relevant program technical and mission documentation associated with development or updates of assigned systems. Apply modeling expertise to design, develop, validate, and maintain models and Information Support Plans (ISPs) for J-6 review and approval of NR-KPP Certifications for each SETR Milestone events identified by the PORs along with an established infrastructure for requirements, assessment, and trade analysis of complex weapons systems.
