REQUIREMENT ARCTOS
is seeking an experienced and highly motivated engineer to join our team supporting AFRL's Air Platform Division. This position will lead the development of a next-generation Digital Engineering Environment that integrates experimental test data, computational models, and engineering workflows into a scalable digital thread to support the development of reusable hypersonic systems. The successful candidate will work alongside experimentalists and modeling personnel and will translate engineering workflows into a robust digital ecosystem that enables data traceability, model validation, reproducibility, and engineering decision support.
PRIMARY RESPONSIBILITIES
The Data Architect will work with Government customers, other ARCTOS personnel, and other Government organizations and contractors in the performance of the following duties: Develop the overall architecture for a layered Digital Engineering Environment integrating test data, simulation models, metadata, workflows, and engineering knowledge. Work directly with modeling and experimental engineers to understand existing workflows, data products, and engineering processes. Design and implement the initial engineering data model, metadata schema, naming conventions, and version-control strategy. Develop automated pipelines for ingesting, organizing, processing, and managing experimental and simulation data. Establish interfaces between test data, finite element models, computational workflows, and engineering applications. Design digital threads that preserve relationships between requirements, configurations, tests, analyses, engineering findings, and future certification evidence. Develop prototype dashboards and engineering applications that allow users to visualize, search, and correlate engineering data. Evaluate commercial technologies (Azure, Teamcenter, Aras, Palantir, etc.) and recommend implementation strategies aligned with long-term program objectives. Document architecture decisions, standards, and best practices to support future system growth.
KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS
The well-qualified candidate will have expertise in several of the following.
