Job description

Applied Research Associates, Inc. has an exciting and challenging opportunity for a Nuclear Weapons Effects Modeling & Simulation Engineer/Scientist who will support our growing business in modeling and simulation of physical phenomena within a 3D geometric modeling environment that is linked to a geographic information system (GIS). We apply traditional physical modeling approaches as well as machine learning to solve critical problems. As a member of our diverse, multidisciplinary team, you will be responsible for developing engineering and physics-based methodologies, analytical algorithms, and software tools that strengthen our national security.
Our work focuses on modeling a diverse range of phenomena including air blast, ground shock, and structural response modeling. Our models span a wide range of fidelity, from fast-running physics-based models to high fidelity computational fluid dynamics, molecular dynamics, and finite element approaches. As an engineer on our team, your day-to-day work will consist of developing or integrating a wide variety of models into our modeling and simulation software and performing verification & validation on the models to ensure that they produce realistic results. As a research and development program, the nature of our work varies from month to month and year to year: You will be continuously challenged to learn and grow expertise in new areas.
The most successful candidates have a strong technical background in science or engineering and a desire to continue expanding their knowledge. Expertise (and desire!) in writing robust and performant software is also highly desirable. If this describes you, please apply! You will be required to work in the office 3 days a week in our Raleigh, NC office.
Required Experience & Skills:
  • Bachelors of Science in Science or Engineering with 5-7 years of experience or Masters of Science in Science or Engineering with 3-5 years of relevant experience or PhD in Science or Engineering with 0-2 years of experience.
  • A strong interest in and ability to develop modeling and simulation software in high level languages (e.g. C++, Python, Java, etc.)
  • A desire to work in a dynamic team environment.

Security Clearance Requirement:
  • The nature of work, interactions with intelligence community and DoD programs require eligibility to apply for and hold a US security clearance (selected applicants will undergo a security investigation and must meet eligibility requirements at the time of employment).

Preferred Experience and Skills:
Above all, we value passion, a continuous desire to learn, and teamwork. We are confident that if you possess the right attitude, work ethic, and skill set, that you will succeed in the role. In addition to the experience and skills above, if you have any of the following you will be able to accelerate your effectiveness and impact.
  • Masters of Science in Science or Engineering with 3-5 years of relevant experience.
  • PhD in Science or Engineering with 0-2 years of relevant experience.
  • Expertise in DoD modeling and simulation technology, structural dynamics, nuclear weapon effects, ground shock environments, geotechnical characterization, and/or probabilistic analysis
  • Familiarity with software design patterns, modern C++, and agile software development practices
  • Ability to communicate effectively through verbal and written mediums with technical and non-technical audiences
