Job Description Summary:
The Simulation group is responsible for designing, developing, validating, and maintaining dynamic simulations and infrastructure for rapid assessment, integration, and test of complex systems. Simulation applications range from high-level behavioral simulations to visualize and evaluate system concepts to high-fidelity real-time simulations and Hardware-in-the-Loop infrastructure to support development, integration, test, and sustainment of systems and software.
This position will entail a range of activities from vehicle modeling, real time software development, automatic code generation, software application integration, embedded hardware interface design, test device management, and test plan specification and integration. Development will take place in a fast paced team environment with an opportunity to work on a range of aerospace and undersea applications.
Job Description:
Duties/Responsibilities
Model operational environments, perform studies via computer simulation and recommend alternative architectures with some guidance.
Perform modeling, simulation, and analysis tasks assess system survivability, system effectiveness, and overall system performance in engagement / mission-level scenarios.
Perform studies and simulation analysis with the objective of enhancing and optimizing system performance capabilities.
Prepare, document, and deliver presentations to gather necessary data and communicate intermediate and final results.
Performs other duties as assigned.
Skills/Abilities
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
Experience with analytical methods, approaches, and data visualization.
Excellent mathematical skills.
Ability to collaborate within a diverse and multidisciplinary team.
Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
Excellent organizational skills and attention to detail.
Excellent time management skills with the proven ability to meet deadlines.
Understanding of software development, simulation, dynamics, control theory, and hardware interfaces.
Ability to reason about software designs given requirements and to formulate debugging strategies for complex systems.
Knowledge of MATLAB/Simulink or other simulation tools, C/C++ software development in Unix/Linux and Windows environments, Linux kernel development, and kernel drivers is also desired.
Familiarity with interface specifications for SPI, I2C, MIL-STD-1553, RS-232, RS-422, and Ethernet.
Understanding of synchronization protocols such as PTP.
Education
Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Mathematics, or related field. Master's degree preferred.
Experience
3-5 years of Systems Engineering or related experience.
Additional Job Description:
An understanding of software development, simulation, dynamics, control theory, and hardware interfaces is required. This position requires the ability to reason about software designs given requirements and to formulate debugging strategies for complex systems. Experience using simulation results to generate metrics and make recommendations for system design changes is preferred.
A working knowledge of MATLAB/Simulink or other simulation tools, including AFSim and MagicDraw, C/C++ software development in Unix/Linux and Windows environments is also desired. Familiarity with interface specifications for SPI, I2C, MIL-STD-1553, RS-232, RS-422, and Ethernet is preferred. Understanding of synchronization protocols such as PTP is also preferred.
Applicants selected for this position will be required to obtain and maintain a government security clearance.
Current In-Scope Top Secret Clearance Preferred.
