Sonic Summary

info
  • The position is for a Senior System Architect on the JTMS platform, requiring over 7 years of experience designing enterprise architectures for large-scale IT programs, particularly in DoD or similar environments.
  • The role involves applying CACI’s Model-Driven Design and Implementation methodology and Model-Based Systems Engineering practices to develop and maintain system models and MBSE artifacts.
  • Candidates must be U.S. citizens with an active DoD Secret clearance or the ability to obtain one, and a Bachelor’s degree in a related technical field is required.
  • The job offers a salary range of $120,000 to $160,000, depending on experience and qualifications.
  • Strong communication skills and familiarity with SysML/UML modeling approaches are essential for this role, along with a motivation to deepen MBSE and digital-engineering skills.

Serve as a senior system architect on the JTMS platform, applying CACI’s Model-Driven Design and Implementation (MDDI) methodology and Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) practices to the S/4HANA-anchored enterprise architecture. Translate joint transportation business processes and architectural intent into authoritative system models that drive design, integration, and verification across the program’s release trains — aligned with DoDI 5000.97 Digital Engineering direction.

Key responsibilities

        Apply CACI MDDI methodology to capture target business processes, system architecture, requirements, and interfaces in a single authoritative system model (Systems Architecture Model / SAM).

        Develop and maintain MBSE artifacts using SysML or equivalent (e.g., Cameo Systems Modeler, Capella, or Rhapsody) covering structure, behavior, requirements, and parametric views of the JTMS platform.

        Translate business architecture into S/4HANA configuration intent: data model, integration topology, and process flow across FI/CO/FM, MM, SD, GTS, and Transportation Management modules.

        Lead integration architecture across REST/SOAP services, enterprise messaging (Kafka or equivalent), API gateways, and the JTMS canonical data model bridging dozens of legacy DoD logistics interfaces.

        Align the architecture to DoDI 5000.97 (Digital Engineering), RMF / NIST 800-53 control families, Zero Trust principles under NIST 800-207, and DoD SRG IL4/IL5 hosting constraints.

        Govern architecture decisions and trade studies across the program’s Agile Release Trains; lead architectural runway planning, model-driven verification approaches, and architecture review boards.

        Mentor functional, integration, and DevSecOps engineers in model-driven design discipline; produce and curate architecture documentation aligned to the program’s configuration management standards.

Required qualifications


     U.S. citizenship with an active DoD Secret clearance or the ability to obtain one (we will sponsor eligible candidates).

     7+ years designing enterprise, system, or solution architectures for large-scale IT programs in DoD or comparable regulated/enterprise environments.

     Demonstrated systems-engineering capability: you can decompose a complex system and model its structure, behavior, interfaces, data, and end-to-end mission/business threads with full traceability — independent of any single tool.

     Working proficiency with a SysML/UML modeling approach in a recognized tool (e.g., Cameo Systems Modeler / MagicDraw, Sparx EA, Rhapsody, GENESYS, or similar), plus familiarity with an architecture framework such as DoDAF or UAF.

     Strong communication skills, including technical briefings and architecture documentation for executive and senior military audiences.

     Aptitude and motivation to deepen MBSE and digital-engineering skills, with support from our digital-engineering community of practice.

     Bachelor’s degree in Systems Engineering, Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or a related technical field — or equivalent professional experience.

Preferred qualifications

     Active DoD Secret clearance.

     5+ years of hands-on MBSE / digital engineering in complex system-of-systems environments.

     Master’s degree in Systems Engineering, Enterprise Architecture, or a related field.

     Direct experience supporting USTRANSCOM, DoD logistics, transportation, supply chain, or ERP modernization programs.

     Experience generating technical documentation, reports, and deliverables directly from system architecture models.

     Experience architecting solutions that integrate COTS/ERP platforms with custom DoD systems.

     Ability to extend MBSE tool capabilities through scripting, APIs, or plugins.

     Familiarity with digital twin, digital baseline management, and AI/ML integration within MBSE frameworks.

     Experience with cloud-based architectures, DevSecOps pipelines, or zero trust in DoD environments (AWS GovCloud, IL4/IL5).

     Knowledge of the DoD acquisition lifecycle, JCIDS, and business process reengineering in enterprise transformation.

     Certifications such as OCSMP, INCOSE CSEP/ESEP, TOGAF, SAFe, or AWS/Azure architecture credentials.
