About The Position

Are you looking for an opportunity to combine your technical skills with big picture thinking to make an impact in national defense and combat weapon system design? You understand your customer’s environment and how to develop the right systems for their mission. Your ability to translate real-world needs into technical specifications makes you an integral part of delivering a customer-focused engineering solution. As a systems engineer on our team, you’ll have the chance to assess and evaluate combat weapon systems using computer-based analytical tools, MATLAB, and the Advanced Framework for Simulation, Integration, or Modeling (AFSIM) analytical framework. Your technical expertise will be vital as you evaluate and modernize combat weapon systems. You’ll develop your skills in critical thinking, data analytics, and operations analysis while gaining experience in constructive modeling and simulation of combat operations. Join our team and help turn requirements into accomplishments that drive change. Join us. The world can't wait.

Requirements

3+ years of experience with AFSIM or many-vs-many simulation environments such as ITASE or NGTS
3+ years of experience with Modeling & Simulation (M&S) supporting the development, use, and analysis of models, simulations, or experiments
Experience with scenario development for simulation-based analysis
Experience with multiple levels of modeling fidelity, including parametric, engineering, or emulative simulations
Experience coding languages commonly used in M&S analysis, such as Python, MATLAB, or C++ for data analysis, model integration, tool development, or to manipulate data between different formats and perform post-processing of data
Experience with analytic techniques such as Design of Experiments (DoE), statistical analysis, Monte Carlo simulation, or optimization methods
Experience with U.S. and foreign combat weapon systems such as radar, directed energy weapons, missile systems, or anti-satellite weapons, air defense, electronic warfare, and command and control (C2)
Experience producing clear visualization outputs including plots, dashboards, videos, or visual analytic artifacts
TS/SCI clearance
Bachelor's degree in STEM field or 5+ years of experience with simulation environments such as AFSIM in lieu of a degree
