Systems Engineer - Torch Technologies, Inc.

Torch Technologies is seeking a skilled Systems Engineer (SE) with experience in Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) to create, expand, and update system models in support of customers at the Missile Defense Agency (MDA). MDA customers apply MBSE to develop Missile Defense System (MDS) Element system models, Element Modeling and Simulation (M&S), and large-scale enterprise-level System-ofSystems (SoS) of the MDS. Because the MDS is a large, complex, system-of-systems composed of geographically dispersed Elements, MDA relies on Element system models and Element M&S to perform engineering studies at the Element level and Digital Case Studies.
