Modeling and Simulation (MandS) Engineerswith a background in Electrical, Aerospace, or Mechanical Engineering to join our rapidly growing Mission Engineering team. We have multiple vacancies for mid-level professionals ready to make an impact. In this role, you will be the technical engine behind our Mission Engineering analyses. You will develop, integrate, and execute complex simulations of Integrated Air and Missile Defense (IAMD) systems to evaluate end-to-end mission effectiveness under varied conditions. Your work will directly translate theoretical mission architectures into quantifiable performance data, accelerating our customers' ability to make data-driven investment and modernization decisions.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design, code, and test high-fidelity mathematical models and simulations of IAMD components (e.g., sensors, interceptors, and threat kinematics).
  • Integrate disparate system models into both

real-time(e.g., Hardware-in-the-Loop/Software-in-the-Loop) and

non-real-time(constructive) simulation frameworks.

  • Develop automated analysis tools and scripts to parse large simulation datasets, enabling sensitivity analysis, trade-space exploration, and the quantification of mission effectiveness.
  • Evaluate threat kinematics, sensor-shooter assignments, weapon flyouts, and overall lethality to quantify end-to-end performance across complex IAMD architectures.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a closely related highly technical field.
  • 5 to 10 years of applied engineering experience, with a heavy focus on modeling, simulation, and analytical tool development.
  • Strong programming skills required to build and integrate engineering simulations in C .
  • Integration Expertise: Proven ability to integrate models into larger simulation architectures, managing data exchange, simulation timing, and data collection pipelines for post-run analysis.
  • Engagement Chains: Experience analyzing architectures for "sensor-to-shooter" loops and fire control closures
  • Ability to obtain Secret Clearance, TS preferred

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with Docker, Podman, or similar for containerizing MandS applications
  • Experience with Army IAMD systems or Missile Defense Agency (MDA) architectures and platforms. Familiarity with the Joint Track Management Capability Bridge
