Our pioneering and inventive spirit has enabled us to be at the forefront of many technological advancements in our nation's history - from the first flight across the Atlantic Ocean, to stealth bombers, to landing on the moon. We look for people who have bold new ideas, courage and a pioneering spirit to join forces to invent the future, and have fun along the way.

Our culture thrives on intellectual curiosity, cognitive diversity and bringing your whole self to work - and we have an insatiable drive to do what others think is impossible. Our employees are not only part of history, they're making history. Northrop Grumman Aeronautics Systems has an opening for Systems Engineer/Modeling Simulation 2/3 to join our team of qualified, diverse individuals within our Air Dominance organization.

This role is located in Melbourne, FL. This position can be filled at either a level 2 or a level 3. As a Systems Engineer 2/3 - Mod & Sim, the candidate will support the development and maintenance of system-level modeling and simulation architectures used to design, analyze, and verify complex aerospace systems.

Working under the guidance of senior engineers, the individual will help define key capabilities and performance requirements for the Mod & Sim environment, assist with defining external interfaces between models, simulations, and physical systems, and contribute to the system implementation approach and operational concept. The candidate will help ensure Mod & Sim requirements are met and support performance evaluations in collaboration with the customer and broader engineering team. The successful candidate will be able to analyze architectures and contribute to the development of select DoDAF and/or SysML viewpoints that support modeling, simulation, and digital engineering activities.
