Affordability Theory of Constraint (TOC) Engineer

RTX•Tucson, AZ

9d•$62,900 - $119,700•Onsite

About The Position

The Affordability Theory of Constraint (TOC) Engineer supports Raytheon’s Discrete Event Simulation (DES) capability. The role involves learning and applying TOC-based simulation modeling to evaluate system behavior, identify constraints, and support program milestones. The engineer works with modelers and cross-functional teams to develop accurate model inputs and analyze simulation results that inform decisions. This position is onsite in Tucson, Arizona.

Requirements

Typically requires a STEM degree and less than 2 years of prior experience, unless prohibited by local laws or regulations.
Experience applying engineering or analytical principles through coursework, analysis methods such as optimization, simulation, or process modeling, or project experience.
Experience using Microsoft Excel.
Experience with structured datasets.
U.S. citizenship is required because only U.S. citizens are eligible for a security clearance.
Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. government-issued security clearance; an active and existing DoD Top Secret clearance is required after day 1.

Nice To Haves

Exposure to simulation, modeling, statistics, or data-driven analysis through coursework or internship experience.
Experience with Python, MATLAB, R, Power BI, Tableau, or JMP for basic data manipulation or visualization.
Experience with basic manufacturing concepts such as cycle times, routing, resources, or yield behavior.
Knowledge of systems engineering fundamentals or production and supply chain workflows.

Responsibilities

Prepare and load structured model inputs, including Excel and database-driven datasets.
Assist modelers in running discrete event simulations to analyze throughput, queue behavior, cycle time variation, and resource utilization.
Identify emerging constraints and assess their impact on production flows, supply chain interactions, and sustainment activities.
Prepare, cleanse, and validate data for yields, routing definitions, process times, resource availability, and demand signals.
Document assumptions, data sources, and configuration changes to maintain traceability.
Participate in sensitivity analyses, scenario comparisons, and parameter sweeps under senior staff guidance.
Generate preliminary plots, tables, and summaries from simulation outputs for internal reviews.
Collaborate with Affordability Leads, Systems Engineering, Operations, and Supply Chain teams to understand model inputs and interpret findings.
Contribute to ongoing model updates as program conditions evolve.
