• Ability to work directly with engineers and technical users to translate complex system requirements into effective user interfaces.

DESIRED SKILLS:

• Experience supporting modeling and simulation (M&S) environments.
• Experience developing software for hardware-in-the-loop (HITL) or software-in-the-loop (SITL) systems.
• Experience visualizing or interacting with real-time telemetry, sensor data, system state, or simulation outputs.
• Familiarity with Python, C++, or other languages commonly used in engineering and simulation environments.
• Experience with 2D/3D visualization, geospatial interfaces, plotting, or scientific visualization libraries.
• Familiarity with simulation tools or frameworks such as MATLAB/Simulink, ROS/ROS 2, Unreal Engine, Unity, Gazebo, or similar.
• Experience integrating software with unmanned systems, robotics, embedded systems, test equipment, or physical hardware.
• Experience developing applications for aerospace, defense, autonomy, or other complex engineering environments.
