- Creating and managing SysML/UML models capturing system requirements, functional behavior, physical architectures, hardware interfaces, and kill-chain functional threads
- Generating SETR artifacts including platform architecture views, functional threads, interface definitions, kill-chain mappings, and verification mappings
- Developing and managing MBSE meta-chain reporting templates supporting platform-level digital thread traceability, including kill-chain dependencies and performance drivers
- Performing data management (DM) and configuration management (CM) of MBSE artifacts across model repositories
- Integrating MBSE products with hardware-centric modeling, simulation, and analysis environments, supporting kill-chain assessment
- Supporting platform and mission assessments within Live, Virtual, and Constructive (LVC) and operational test environments
- Collaborating with hardware, software, integration, and test teams to ensure model fidelity, platform integration readiness, interoperability, and kill-chain coherence
