Configuration Engineer II

ursamajor

Responsibilities

  • at Ursa Major, you’ll be a key contributor on our Configuration Management (CM) team, owning the workflows that keep our defense and space systems aligned, traceable, and ready to build.
  • You’ll sit at the center of the digital thread—Requirements, MBSE, Configurable Product Lines, CAD and downstream systems—making sure everything fits together and stays in sync. This role blends hands-on execution with system and process design, giving you the opportunity to both do the work and shape how the work is done.
  • Own engineering change execution across programs, ensuring ECRs, ECOs, and related records flow smoothly through Jama, Cameo, and Windchill.
  • Manage configuration identifiers, revision history, and lifecycle states across configuration packages and Interface Control Documents (ICDs).
  • Structure and maintain MBSE packages, libraries, and requirements that are complete, consistent, and synchronized with design, analysis, and manufacturing systems.
  • Create and refine templates that generate clear, user-friendly ICD documents from MBSE SysML v2 definitions.
  • Organize, publish, and maintain SysML v2 packages for reusability; support systems and subsystems engineers in defining and managing package interfaces.
  • Lead release and configuration integrity for MBSE models and requirements, ensuring metadata, model structure, and version control are release-ready.
  • Support the development and maintenance of ICDs, envelope models, shrink-wraps, and mass properties rollups that feed program and customer deliverables.
  • Partner with systems engineering owners and designers such that hierarchical integration is captured in clean, structured model data.
  • Identify and resolve release conflicts, data integrity issues, and configuration discrepancies across MBSE, requirements, and PLM systems.
  • Contribute to internal documentation, CM standards, and best practices.
  • Act as a cross-functional partner with Systems Engineering, Design, Manufacturing, Program Management, and Quality to keep everyone aligned.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Systems Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical field.

Preferred

  • Experience supporting flight or mission-critical hardware programs.
  • Familiarity with digital thread principles and Requirements-to-MBSE-to-PLM integrations.
  • Working knowledge of SysML v2 in a real-world / production program environment.
  • Experience writing or refining CM procedures, SOPs, and training documentation.

Required Qualifications

  • 3+ years of experience in configuration management, systems engineering data management, or product-variant–integrated CM roles.
  • Hands-on experience with Requirements Management, MBSE, and Product Line Engineering (PLE), including full lifecycle package and document control.
  • Familiarity with MBSE and requirements management tools (Jama and Cameo/No Magic/SysML v2 preferred), with strong understanding of model structuring, metadata control, and configuration linking.
  • Knowledge managing configurable products and product variants using PLE systems (pure::variants strongly preferred).

Strong understanding of configuration fundamentals

  • revision control, MBSE SysML v2 package structuring, lifecycle states, and change workflows.
  • Experience supporting model-based integration deliverables such as MIDs, mass properties, and customer packaging interfaces.
  • Familiarity with AS9100, ISO 9001, or similar quality/compliance frameworks for aerospace or hardware products.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills; you know how to influence process discipline across teams without formal authority.

Preferred Experience
