2 Participates in all aspects of the production and integration of visual systems and 3D databases and models on designated projects to meet customer requirements.
3 Responsible for various aspects of synthetic environment design and construction.
4 Ability to plan and execute complex, multi-faceted projects within established financial and time constraints.
5 Ability to plan and execute complex, multi-faceted projects within established financial and time constraints.
6 Ability to evaluate computer technology to meet requirements of scene generation with respect to frame rate, memory and disk space.
7 Able to work in a fast-paced production environment with ability to handle multiple competing tasks and demands simultaneously.
8 Able to travel to customer locations to support contractual commitments including data collection, program reviews, development, installation, integration, and testing.
9 Support installation efforts that will require travel CONUS and OCONUS.
10 Review project tasks against schedules and provides status reports.
11 Work as part of a project team.
12 Implementation and application of sound configuration management processes.
Tasks
1 Provide the development and testing of visual system content including terrain databases, three dimensional models, andanimations to ensure they conform to program requirements.
2 Provide technical support for visual and sensor synthetic natural environment design and development to ensure successful integration and performance.
3 Define synthetic natural environment content requirements and advise project teams on alternatives to achieve training effective visual cues in the environment model.
4 Facilitate and develop Acceptance Testing Procedures for customer acceptance.
5 Support design documentation development.
Education
Completion of a full course of study in an accredited college or university leading to a Bachelor's or higher degree in engineering, engineering technology, physics, electro-optics, mathematics, or computer science or a related field.
