Sr. Systems Engineer – Modeling & Simulation Product Owner

RTX•Tucson, AZ

2d•$86,800 - $165,200•Onsite

About The Position

The Processing, Guidance and Controls (PG&C) Center within the Systems Engineering and Test Capabilities Directorate is hiring a Sr. Systems Engineer – Modeling & Simulation Product Owner. This role will provide simulated environments for testing of missile effectors through 6DOF modeling, scene modeling, and hardware modeling while testing software in simulation capabilities. The position involves developing a lower fidelity model for use in operational simulations, working with a 3rd party customer. The Sr. Systems Engineer – Modeling & Simulation Product Owner will serve as the current Modeling, Simulation, and Analysis lead, with ownership of the development and execution of a Naval Power program. This is an onsite role based in Tucson, AZ.

Requirements

Bachelor’s in Science, Technology, Engineering, or Mathematics (STEM) and a minimum of 5 years of prior relevant experience.
Experience on a missile program.
Experience designing, developing, and validating Simulations to Government standards.
Experience with object oriented languages and other languages such as C, C++, and Python in a Linux environment.
Experience with design and analysis for 6DOF simulations.
Experience leading others in technical and/or functional capacities within an engineering environment.
Experience with Design of Experiments and High Processor Computing resources.
Current and active U.S. government issued Top Secret Security Clearance is required with the ability to obtain program access after start.
U.S. citizenship is required.

Nice To Haves

An Advanced Degree in Electrical Engineering, Electrical and Computer Engineering, Optical Engineering, Computer Science, Physics, or Mathematics.
Experience using MATLAB and/or Python for evaluation and analysis of data sets.
Experience using HPC Management tools such as SLURM.
Experience using operational tools like AFSIM.

Responsibilities

Act as a recognized Modeling, Simulation and Analysis subject matter expert responsible for the credibility of a lower fidelity system deliverable to program Tech Authority.
Work independently from the baseline program to deliver a lower fidelity simulation used in Operational Research based on the performance of the baseline program.
Develop and use credible simulation models to estimate system and sub-system level performance for the operational simulation.
Lead, or be able to lead, a technical team, mentor engineers, and/or manage an engineering project.
Work with other teams to verify the credibility of the lower fidelity simulation and its accuracy against a wide range of test cases.
