Job Description

Lead the introduction and implementation of Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) across the organisation. Guide the transition from document-centric to model-driven engineering practices-improving consistency, traceability, and collaboration across spacecraft, ground systems, and operations projects. Be the key driver in defining the MBSE framework, tools, and processes, ensuring alignment with both internal projects and external partners (including space agencies and industry collaborations).

Job Responsibility

  • Define and lead the roadmap for MBSE adoption across technical teams
  • Assess current systems engineering practices and identify improvement areas
  • Specify requirements for MBSE tooling and methodologies (with a focus on SysML v2)
  • Evaluate, select, and deploy MBSE tools (e.g., Cameo, Capella, Enterprise Architect)
  • Develop proof-of-concept system models covering satellite, ground segment, and operational concepts
  • Enable model-based reporting and documentation (e.g., automated generation for Word/Excel)
  • Integrate MBSE into existing engineering workflows and toolchains
  • Ensure compliance with document-based deliverables required by partners or agencies (e.g., ESA)
  • Identify training needs and coordinate MBSE upskilling programs
  • Develop internal guidelines, templates, and best practices for model-based approaches
  • Mentor and support teams throughout the MBSE transition
  • Partner with systems, hardware, and software engineering teams to align models with real-world implementations
  • Facilitate cross-team communication and ensure consistency between project domains

Requirements

  • Proven experience implementing MBSE in aerospace or other complex systems domains
  • Strong working knowledge of SysML (preferably SysML v2) and MBSE tools (e.g., Cameo, Capella, Enterprise Architect)
  • Demonstrated success in introducing MBSE processes from the ground up
  • Deep understanding of systems engineering principles and lifecycle processes
  • Experience with model-to-document generation workflows and tool integrations (Word, Excel)
  • Excellent communication and documentation skills
  • Ability to lead cross-functional initiatives and drive cultural change

Nice to have

  • Familiarity with ground segment systems or satellite operations
  • Experience with ESA or other agency standards (ECSS)

What we offer

  • Flexible working environment with remote and hybrid options
  • Competitive compensation and growth potential within a scaling international company
  • Join a diverse, collaborative team committed to innovation, inclusion, and excellence
