Peraton is delivering advanced mission planning, digital engineering, and command‑and‑control capabilities supporting the U.S. Government’s space communications enterprise. Our team uses modern MBSE practices to translate mission needs into precise, traceable, and verifiable technical requirements across a complex, multi‑system environment.
As a Senior Requirements Engineer, you will collaborate closely with system integrators, architects, and MBSE teams to define, refine, and document mission planning and component-level specifications. You will ensure requirements are clear, consistent, and verifiable while contributing to the creation of authoritative digital engineering artifacts that drive system design and implementation.
What you’ll do:
- Provide feedback, clarification, and refinement of the Mission Planning Specification in coordination with the System Integrator and architecture teams.
- Derive component‑level specifications from mission‑level requirements and from behaviors represented in the MBSE model.
- Ensure requirements are properly captured, traceable, and aligned with system architecture, interfaces, and model behavior.
- Support creation of requirement verification artifacts for all mission planning and component-level requirements, ensuring verifiable acceptance criteria.
- Collaborate with MBSE practitioners to validate that system behavior, interfaces, and architectures accurately reflect requirement intent.
- Participate in technical reviews, requirement walkthroughs, and traceability assessments across engineering disciplines.
