Responsibilities Peraton is seeking an experienced Digital Architecture & Modeling Engineer to support the modernization of the Federal Aviation Administration's National Airspace System (NAS) under the BNATCS program. This position combines the responsibilities traditionally associated with Enterprise Architecture, Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE), and Modeling, Analysis & Simulation (MA&S) into a unified, model-centric engineering discipline.

The Digital Architecture & Modeling Engineer will develop and maintain the Digital NAS Architecture (DNA)—an authoritative, model-based representation of the NAS that connects mission needs, operational concepts, requirements, capabilities, systems, services, interfaces, infrastructure, verification evidence, and ultimately operational performance.

Rather than treating architecture artifacts and engineering documents as independently authored products, this role will establish and maintain the authoritative architecture model from which architecture views, operational concepts, CONOPS content, interface descriptions, analyses, and other engineering products are generated.

The successful candidate will work at the intersection of enterprise architecture, systems engineering, MBSE, simulation, digital engineering, and mission analysis. The role requires both architectural judgment and hands-on modeling expertise. Candidates must be capable of understanding complex mission and technical problems, developing the architecture within Cameo using UAF/SysML, analyzing the resulting model, and communicating model-derived insights to FAA leadership, program offices, engineers, and other stakeholders.

Key Responsibilities Develop and maintain the Digital NAS Architecture (DNA) as an authoritative enterprise model representing current-state, transition-state, and target-state NAS architectures.

Apply UAF, SysML, DoDAF concepts, and MBSE practices using Cameo and Teamwork Cloud to model NAS capabilities, missions, operational activities, performers, systems, services, interfaces, information exchanges, infrastructure, and dependencies.

Develop model-based Concepts of Operations (CONOPS) in which operational activities, scenarios, mission threads, performers, information exchanges, constraints, assumptions, and supporting architecture are maintained as authoritative model elements rather than disconnected document content.

Generate DoDAF/UAF architecture views, CONOPS content, interface descriptions, architecture descriptions, matrices, reports, and other engineering products from the authoritative model using standardized model queries, views, and report templates.

Develop and maintain mission threads connecting operational outcomes to capabilities, activities, systems, functions, interfaces, network and infrastructure services, requirements, verification evidence, and other lifecycle artifacts.
