Modeling and Simulation Engineer, Mid

About the Role

As an aerospace modeling and simulation (M&S) engineer, you will use your engineering expertise to develop next-generation defense tools and technology. Your skills and expertise in M&S will be used to develop creative solutions that directly impact the warfighter.

Key Responsibilities

• Provide expertise in evaluating new technologies, performing risk assessments, and improving the design of aerospace systems.
• Contribute to the direction of mission-critical solutions by evaluating, improving, and designing leading-edge aerospace technology.
• Work with a large community of aerospace solutions engineers and collaborate with engineers and clients to deliver world-class solutions.
• Design, model, and simulate a tactical next-generation broker service to specifications and performance requirements.
• Apply engineering knowledge to help the Air Force expand and improve their capabilities to share information across multiple sources at different enclaves.

Requirements & Tech Stack

• Experience with scenario development and performing analytical assessments of cross-domain or communications systems.
• Experience with a variety of COTS and GOTS M&S and data science tools, including MATLAB, C++, Perl, or Python, to manipulate data between different formats and perform post-processing of data.
• Knowledge of cross-domain or communications systems, including aircraft and ground-based communications.
• Ability to apply operational analysis principles, theories, and concepts to execute study plans and analysis matrices.
• Ability to travel up to 25%.
• Ability to obtain a Top Secret clearance.
• Bachelor’s degree in a STEM field.

Nice to Have

• Experience developing Advanced Framework for Simulation, Integration, and Modeling (AFSIM) scripts to customize model behaviors and decisions within an analytical scenario.
• Experience with scenario development and performing analytical assessments of cross-domain or communications systems using mission-level constructive simulation tools, including AFSIM, Extendable Mobile Ad-hoc Network Emulator (EMANE), Tactical Network Modeler (TNM), or Common Open Research Emulator (CORE).
• Ability to analyze large amounts of raw model output to identify key drivers.
• Ability to distill, summarize, and articulate complex technical insights and findings.
• TS/SCI clearance.
