Job Description : Senior Software Engineer - GCIA Services Engineer

Position Summary

We are seeking a highly skilled GCIA Services Engineer with expertise in CAMEO, SysML, DAML, and C / C++, who can architect, implement, and integrate interfaces compliant with GCIA and VICTORY specifications. The ideal candidate will bridge model-based systems engineering (MBSE) with embedded software implementation, ensuring alignment with Department of Defense (DoD) standards and security requirements. This role requires U.S. Citizenship and the ability to obtain and maintain a DoD security clearance.

Key Responsibilities

Design, develop, and integrate GCIA-compliant services within embedded and distributed systems.

Build and maintain CAMEO SysML models for system architecture, interfaces, and data exchange definitions.

Author and implement DAML interface models and ensure consistency with GCIA data architecture.

Develop and optimize C / C++ software components for embedded platforms and mission-critical systems.

Ensure compliance with GCIA, VICTORY, and related DoD standards across system and software designs.

Collaborate with cross-functional teams (systems engineering, vehicle control, mission systems) to ensure seamless integration of services.

Support Interface Control Documents (ICDs), data models, and configuration baselines.

Perform trade studies and system-level analyses to evaluate design alternatives, risks, and performance impacts.

Participate in technical reviews (SRR, PDR, CDR) and contribute to CDRL deliverables.

Provide subject matter expertise on DoD information assurance, cybersecurity, and standards compliance.

Required Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering, Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or related field.

8+ years of experience in software or systems engineering within defense or related industries.

Hands-on experience with CAMEO Systems Modeler (SysML) for interface design and architecture modeling.

Strong knowledge of GCIA (Ground Combat Systems Common Infrastructure Architecture) and VICTORY specifications.

Proficiency in C / C++ programming for embedded, safety-critical, or real-time applications.

Experience with DAML or equivalent modeling / data definition approaches.

Understanding of DoD standards, processes, and acquisition frameworks.

Must be a U.S. Citizen and eligible to obtain / maintain a DoD security clearance.

Preferred Qualifications

Master’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or related discipline.

Previous experience on ground combat vehicles or similar defense programs.

Familiarity with FACE, MOSA, and software-defined vehicle architectures.

Working knowledge of Agile / SAFe software development practices.

Experience in cybersecurity, RMF, and system hardening for DoD systems.

Strong technical writing skills for ICDs, SDDs, and CDRL documentation.

Experience with Phenom, particularly for MBSE toolchain integration and system modeling acceleration, is a plus.

Clearance Requirement

• Must be able to obtain and maintain a Secret or Top Secret clearance (depending on program needs).
