  • Partner with domain SMEs to translate aircraft/weapon physics into high-fidelity, real-time models and integrate them into the overall simulation
  • Integrate and use advanced GUIs and visualization tools
  • Model operational environments and perform trade studies via computer simulation resulting in recommendations for system architectures and configurations
  • Support the design and development of visualization models and databases for integration with a high-fidelity simulation environment

We offer flexible work arrangements, 9/80 work schedule with every other Friday off, phenomenal learning opportunities, exposure to a wide variety of projects and customers, and a very friendly team environment. We are looking for self-directed professionals who thrive in collaborative environments.

  • Experience with real-time simulation/software development
  • Expertise in aircraft aero-performance, sensors, weapons, and/or communication systems
  • Experience with hardware/software integration, especially integration of aircraft hardware into a lab/simulation environment
  • Ability to translate physics/mathematics models into real-time simulation algorithms
  • Experience performing weapon system level design, integration, or test & evaluation
  • An understanding of Integrated Air Defense Systems and capabilities
  • An understanding of operational Command and Control systems and software
