The Air-Vehicle Multidisciplinary Design Analysis and Optimization (MDAO) Engineer joins the Air Dominance & Strike division to accelerate the development of collaborative combat aircraft and missiles. This role involves integrating disciplinary models for controls, guidance, and propulsion into cohesive multi-fidelity workflows to inform critical design decisions. You will build parameterized, CAD-based scripted geometry models, automate engineering workflows, and execute advanced analyses including Design of Experiments, sensitivity analysis, and Uncertainty Quantification. The position requires proficiency in Python, MATLAB, C, C++, and FORTRAN, alongside experience with commercial MDAO frameworks and AI tools like large language models. You will solve complex engineering problems by bridging the gap between conceptual design and detailed engineering, ensuring that modeling choices directly contribute to delivering mission-critical defense systems in a peer-to-peer conflict environment.
