DescriptionWe are seeking a Lethality M&S Engineer to characterize and evaluate missile system end-game performance for Precision Strike platforms. We are a multi-disciplinary and hardworking team of analysts and developers who support a wide range of government sponsors with many exciting technical problems. As a member of our team, you will develop and use simulation tools to conduct physics-based engagement-level and mission-level analyses, while collaborating with specialists and integrating M&S tools in other fields including (but not limited to): aerodynamics, GNC, propulsion, radar engineering, electronic warfare, software development, systems engineering and more.
As a Lethality Modeling & Simulation Engineer...- Your primary responsibility will be to evaluate precision strike platform effectiveness by developing, using, and integrating together an assortment of engagement-level lethality modeling and simulation tools.
- You will analyze the performance of current and future weapon systems, as well as helping optimize engagements the weapon system could perform.
- You will help build and develop novel engineering software tools to analyze large and complex data sets.
- Work with members of the Intelligence Community (IC) to help develop models of key targets and understand how best to defeat them.
- You will collaborate with a multi-disciplinary team to use, develop, and improve detailed modeling capabilities.
- You will prepare and present formal documentation to technical specialists, operational partners, and Government sponsors.
QualificationsYou meet our minimum qualifications for the job if you...- Have a Bachelor's degree in a technical field such as Physics, Mathematics, Mechanical, Aerospace, or a closely related engineering field.
- Have at least two years of relevant experience analyzing missile systems or working with aerospace/defense systems.
