Job Description

As a Modeling & Simulation Engineer , you will participate in unique multi-disciplinary research across integrated product teams consisting of Guidance, Navigation and Control (GNC), Signal Processing, Electronic Warfare, and missile-and-sensor-level countermeasure effectiveness performance simulations.

You will run, develop, and update existing high fidelity performance simulations that include multiple threat emulation, scene or pulse generation capability, control virtual hardware, model the physical environment, interference, and system performance evaluation. Countermeasure effectiveness analysis includes making updates to the model functions, system optimization and Monte Carlo assessments to predicted expected missile behaviors to countermeasures.

Key Responsibilities (Essential Functions)

• You will be the technical expert in a team environment on diverse projects, providing solutions to create high fidelity simulations and models for missile countermeasures, performance assessment, interference mitigation, trade studies and support to government evaluations.
• You will work collaboratively, through oversight of teams, to solve the Modeling and Simulation obstacles both with the creators of the tools, but also with new team members to implement changes and verify behaviors.
• Analysis of Missile countermeasure performance both in simulation, laboratory, and hardware test
• Leadership of small team teams and/or specific trade study efforts
• Perform simulation using government or industry tools to determine countermeasure measures of performance (MOPs) and measures of effectiveness (MOEs) or Reduction in Lethality (RIL) for capabilities, existing products, and new products.
• Use, develop, and modifying tools to support data analysis of simulations.
• Lead teams for developing modeling tools.
• Define interfaces and software “plug-ins” required for simulation and oversee their development.
• Review/critique of work of junior and peer engineers.​ Requi
