Job description

Description

SAIC is seeking a Guidance, Navigation, and Control (GN&C) Modeling and Simulation Aerospace Engineer to support hypersonic weapon systems development in Crane, IN. As a critical member of our team, you will help design, model, and validate GN&C systems for hypersonic weapons, with a focus on simulation development, algorithm design, and performance analysis in a mission‑critical environment. Your work will directly contribute to optimizing weapon system performance in high‑speed and harsh environments.

NOTE: This is a hybrid position requiring the candidate to be in office 1‑4 times per week.

Job Responsibilities
  • Develop, implement, and refine GNC algorithms for guidance, control, and navigation
  • Support hypersonic weapon system modeling and simulation, including 6 DOF (six degrees of freedom) simulations
  • Perform trajectory analysis, mission performance evaluations, and control system stability assessments
  • Analyze telemetry, flight test data, and HWIL/SIL outputs to validate system performance
  • Conduct Monte Carlo analysis, uncertainty modeling, and system performance sensitivity studies
  • Evaluate system performance in complex scenarios and environments and verify system and subsystem level requirements
  • Support requirements decomposition, interface definition, and subsystem integration with system engineering teams
  • Document models, test results, algorithm behavior, and performance in technical reports and presentations
  • Participate in technical reviews, design sessions, and engineering working groups with government and contractor personnel
Qualifications Required Education and Experience
  • Bachelor’s degree in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Physics, or related discipline (Master’s preferred)
  • 3+ years’ experience in GNC engineering, missile guidance, flight controls, or related system modeling
  • Interim clearance required with the ability to obtain and maintain a security clearance at the Secret level.
  • Proficiency in MATLAB/Simulink, Python, C/C++, FORTRAN or equivalent simulation frameworks/programming languages
  • Candidate must have demonstrated the ability to perform one or more of the following Guidance, Navigation and Control (GNC) or Modeling and Simulation (M&S) assignments based on completed course work or professional experience:
  • Develop and analyze algorithms such as guidance, navigation, autopilot, inertial tracking, and servo control algorithms
  • Develop and/or verify/validate complex vehicle models and simulations such as missile 6‑degree‑of‑freedom simulations
  • Demonstrate strong math skills in the areas of linear algebra, matrix math, statistics, trigonometry, and coordinate transformations
Preferred Experience
  • Familiarity with hardware in the loop (HWIL) or software in the loop (SIL) environments
  • Experience supporting missile systems, unmanned systems, or weapons/flight dynamics programs
  • Experience supporting DoD/DoW Weapons Systems
  • Experience with aerospace flight test data analysis or guidance verification
  • Current active Secret clearance
