Senior Red Team Engineer, Discovery joins the Discovery team to serve as an internal adversary for complex engineering systems across space, missiles, air, autonomy, and sensors. This role involves identifying unmodeled failure modes, hunting hidden assumptions, and pressure-testing trade studies before designs are finalized. You will work cross-functionally with Systems Engineering, GNC, Software, Hardware, and Mission Operations to reconstruct analyses and develop custom tools for modeling and simulation. The ideal candidate possesses a track record of both designing and analyzing real engineering systems rather than just performing analysis. Required skills include proficiency in physics-math scripting using MATLAB, Simulink, or Python with numpy/scipy. Candidates must hold an active U.S. Top Secret security clearance and possess strong communication skills to present complex data visually to stakeholders while ensuring mission success through rigorous, independent verification of technical designs.
