Do you love to solve problems for which there isn't a textbook solution? Are you passionate about gaining a meaningful technical experience while helping to improve a Navy ship's ability to defend itself? If you are pursuing a degree in Engineering (e.g. Electrical, Software, Systems, Aero), Computer Science, Math, or Physics, and you are into modeling, simulation and analysis, then we'd love to have you join our team of motivated problem solvers! We are seeking a wide range of talented interns who want to work in a collaborative, team environment to help us 1) create sophisticated simulations of current and future Naval capabilities, adversarial threat systems (e.g., missiles, swarms of autonomous platforms) to pair with machine learning technologies in order to develop robust solutions to transform systemic weaknesses into strengths, 2) develop complex analysis tools and use them to evaluate the performance of new Navy systems or system of system capabilities, and/or 3) perform early research into promising technology that pushes the art and the science of defense. As a member of our multi-disciplinary team you can follow your passion to develop dynamic, interacting physics-based models/simulations to help us understand how mother nature and the laws of physics can impact the performance of key sensor, command and control, and weapon systems. Develop tools that apply data analytic and statistical methodologies and use them to analyze current systems, root cause performance issues, and develop operational solutions. Mature cutting edge concepts or technologies that lead to improving our Navy's ability to maintain superior situational awareness in the fog of war, identify blatant and subtle hostile actions, and dynamically allocate limited resources in a changing battlefield.
