Job Description
The Opportunity:
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 research and development? 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, including the Advanced Framework for Simulation, Integration, or Modeling (AFSIM) analytical framework, MATLAB, and in-house post-processing tools. Your technical expertise will be vital as you evaluate combat weapon systems. You’ll directly impact the Department of Defense’s (DoD) mission by identifying how factors such as force package design, order of battle, basing, and multi-domain operations affect the outcomes of long-duration, theater-level campaigns. These analyses ultimately allow DoD leadership to make more informed decisions regarding the acquisition of future combat 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.
You Have:
- 3+ years of experience with scripting or programming languages, including C, C++, MATLAB, and Python
- Experience performing operational analysis or modeling and simulation for the DoD
- Experience performing analytical assessments of complex systems
- Knowledge of U.S. and foreign combat weapon systems, including aircraft and ground-based air defense systems
- Ability to leverage problem-solving expertise to overcome engineering or code development challenges
- Ability to distill, summarize, and articulate complex technical insights and findings
- Ability to work in a team environment
- Secret clearance
- Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, or CS
Nice If You Have:
- Experience using AFSIM for operational analysis
- Experience using campaign-level modeling and simulation tools, including STORM
- Experience with data analytics or software development in an academic or professional environment
- Experience with the Linux operating environment
- Possession of excellent verbal and written communication skills
- TS/SCI clearance
- Master's degree in a Science, Technology, Engineering, or Mathematics (STEM) field
