Senior Model-Based Systems Engineer
Rondo EnergyAlameda, California, United States · Posted 1 month agoDescription
We are looking for a Senior Model-Based Systems Engineer – Integration, Verification & Validation (IV&V) to own interface management and the full system verification and validation program across Rondo’s products. This role is responsible for planning, defining, and reporting on all integration and V&V activities, from requirements through final evidence packages.
What You’ll Do
Interface Management
- Own all interface boundary definitions and configuration control; author and maintain Interface Control Documents (ICDs), delegating responsibility to subsystem leads where appropriate to ensure 100% interface coverage and oversight.
- Use interface analysis methods — context diagrams, N2 diagrams, functional analysis, FMEA/STPA, etc. — to identify interactions, assess risks, and define requirements; maintain bidirectional traceability to the system architecture and V&V artifacts.
- Plan and define interface verification activities; coordinate cross-functional review and approval of interface changes; ensure every change triggers an impact assessment.
- Verify that discipline engineers are performing clash detection, envelope compliance, and tolerance stack-up checks correctly in a federated CAD/PLM model.
V&V Planning and Definition
- For every requirement, define the V&V success criteria, strategy, and method across a combination of model-based simulation and physical testing.
- Develop V&V plans for system, subsystems, and system elements; author procedures; schedule verification events and enforce a logical bottom-up integration sequence.
- Work in close collaboration with subsystem and functional to confirm plans are comprehensive.
- Collect evidence from execution teams, review for correctness and completeness, manage discrepancies and noncompliance through to closure, and assemble the final compliance summary.
- Plan and define V&V for all phases of on-site commissioning.
Toolchain Integration and Workflow Automation
- Build and maintain automated workflows in an AI-powered systems engineering platform to connect requirements, interfaces, simulations, verification status, interface changes, and traceability into a live, continuously updated picture of program health.
- Author AI skills to automate repetitive SE tasks: requirements quality checks, coverage gap detection, interface impact analysis, and verification status roll-ups.
Reporting and Compliance
- Maintain end-to-end bidirectional traceability from stakeholder needs through requirements, interfaces, risks, and verification evidence.
- Present verification readiness and evidence status at program reviews; produce compliance summaries and requests for variance or concessions where needed.
- Ensure functional safety (IEC 61511), cybersecurity (IEC 62443), and other regulatory requirements are fully evidenced; apply risk-based prioritization.
What You Bring
- 7+ years in systems, integration, or verification engineering on complex multi-disciplinary, software-intensive systems (energy storage, industrial, aerospace, automotive, robotics, or similar); 3+ years in a model-based engineering environment.
- Hands-on interface management experience.
- Demonstrated experience writing system-level V&V plans and defining verification strategies in a model-based simulation environment.
- Experience with requirements management tools (Jama, Flow) and bidirectional traceability.
- Comfortable with SolidWorks or equivalent PLM/CAD environments.
- Familiarity with CFD and reduced-order modeling tools (Ansys, MATLAB/Simulink) sufficient to define and validate toolchain integrations.
- Comfort working with AI-powered tools and building automation workflows; hands-on experience with Claude and MCP server development is a strong asset.
- Working knowledge of SysML and at least one MBSE tool (Catia Magic/Cameo, Rhapsody, Capella); experience defining V&V attributes and traceability inside the model.
- Familiarity with safety and risk analysis methods (FMEA, FTA, STPA) and their connection to verification planning.
- Familiarity with top-down SE processes (ISO 15288, INCOSE) and MBSE methods.
- Strong communication, able to teach, influence, and lead across functional design teams.
Bonus Points
- Experience with model-based product line engineering and/or product variant management.
- Familiarity with digital twins, model correlation, or early-stage virtual verification.
- On-site commissioning experience, ideally on first-of-a-kind (FOAK) or early-commercial systems in energy storage, industrial, or infrastructure sectors.
- Acceptance testing experience (FAT, SAT, or equivalent).
