KBR’s National Security Solutions team provides high-end engineering and advanced technology solutions to our customers in the intelligence and national security communities. In this position, your work will have a profound impact on the country’s most critical role – protecting our national security.

Why Join Us?

Innovative Projects: KBR’s work is at the forefront of engineering, logistics, operations, science, program management, mission IT and cybersecurity solutions.

Collaborative Environment: Be part of a dynamic team that thrives on collaboration and innovation, fostering a supportive and intellectually stimulating workplace.

Impactful Work: Your contributions will be pivotal in designing and optimizing defense systems that ensure national security and shape the future of space defense.

KBR is seeking a mid-level Systems Engineer to support Headquarters, US Air Force (HAF) A5/7, Air Force Futures (AFF), at client sites in the Pentagon/JBAB in the National Capital Region. The applicant will join a team that employs Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE). MBSE utilizes digital Mission Thread (MT) and Mission Engineering Thread (MET) models to provide a mission context to concept exploration, capability development, and throughout the systems engineering and acquisitions life cycles. MT models capture the sequence of operational objectives and tasks to achieve a desired mission effect. METs include the technical details of the capabilities and systems assigned to execute the mission. MBSE allows for virtual integration of innovative concepts and will streamline analysis to support planning and programming decisions.

MBSE is used to support the analysis of HAF A5/7 (AFF) concepts and requirements to assist with the development of Program Objective Memorandum (POM) recommendations. Such recommendations are based on coherent, analytically-sound evidence as captured in credible, validated digital models. Models are used to facilitate robust collaborations among Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) in the A5/7, ICC, and across stakeholder organizations, such as HAF A8 and A9, AFRL, and the Space Force. Models of the different AF missions and functions form constituent parts of a Mission Architecture that over time can become an Authoritative Source of Truth (ASoT) about future AF operations.
