ACARA Solutions and our large defense client have a contract-to-direct hire position for an Advanced Systems Engineer specializing in Missile Tracking Defense. This role focuses on developing and enhancing a cutting-edge system designed to track and intercept hypersonic missiles. The engineer will work with advanced technologies and deep algorithms to design, implement, and improve the missile tracking and defense system using Python and CAMEO. This position offers the opportunity to collaborate directly with space vehicle vendors and work alongside the Missile Defense Agency (MDA), with a primary focus on developing solutions to protect against and neutralize hypersonic threats.

  • Design and develop advanced systems capable of tracking the location and trajectory of hypersonic missiles in real time.
  • Utilize deep algorithms and cutting-edge technology to improve tracking accuracy and ensure missile interception capabilities.
  • Work directly with space vehicle vendors to integrate tracking solutions into their systems and coordinate with the Missile Defense Agency (MDA) for system validation and performance.
  • Leverage Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) principles to design, simulate, and evaluate missile defense systems.
  • Use Python for developing algorithms, data processing, and software solutions integral to the missile tracking and defense system.
  • Work with CAMEO for systems engineering and modeling tasks.
  • Continuously test and optimize the missile tracking and defense system to ensure performance under various operational conditions.
  • Ensure all development activities are compliant with security protocols and data management policies.
  • Bachelor's Degree in Systems Engineering, Science, Engineering, or Mathematics.
  • Minimum of 8 years experience in systems engineering.
  • Experience in developing algorithms and tracking systems for missile defense, aerospace, or related fields.
  • Strong proficiency in Python and CAMEO (or similar systems engineering tools).
  • Experience with Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) and its application in defense technologies.
  • Familiarity with hypersonic missile technologies and the missile defense domain.
  • Ability to collaborate with external vendors and agencies, particularly in the space and defense sectors.
  • Secret clearance required, with the ability to obtain a Top Secret (TS) clearance.
  • Ability to work in a secure office environment and handle sensitive information appropriately.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and a strong background in algorithm development.
  • Master's Degree.
  • Agile experience.
  • Satellite communications knowledge.
  • Ground to Satellite communication knowledge.
  • Ground operations experience.
  • STK/Python, CAMEO, or MATLAB analyst focus.
  • SE with MBSE experience and tracking knowledge.
  • SE with core skills in space, tracking, MATLAB or Python skills, and some software ideal for backfill.
  • SMART OA SE - knowledge of IRPL, modeling tracking payload, aerospace experience.
  • Strong SW, cloud, modeling, and sim background with space knowledge.
  • Creative thinker with demonstrated success leading the systems development life cycle.
  • Collaborative team player eager to provide technical leadership and position others for success.
  • Thorough knowledge of technology trends and willingness to champion new ideas and process improvements.
  • Good presentation and communications skills with experience in negotiation.
  • $94.00-$100.00 per hour (hourly rate is flexible).
