TL;DR · System Engineer, ModSim, Joint Simulation Environment (JSE)

The System Engineer, ModSim, Joint Simulation Environment joins the Systems Engineering team to support the development of advanced mission autonomy systems. This role involves red-teaming designs, building models and simulations to prove or break claims, and providing Model Based Systems Engineering and Requirements Based Testing artifacts. The engineer will support Program Management, Mission Software Engineers, and Operations Analysts by communicating complex results through visual data presentations. Key responsibilities include requirements analysis, system design, and owning systems-level requirements for complex DoD weapon systems or space systems. Required technical skills include experience with MODSIM environments like AFSIM or JSE, SysML, DoDAF, UAFP, and software like Cameo MagicDraw. Candidates should also possess proficiency in physics-math scripting using MATLAB, Simulink, or Python with numpy/scipy to solve demanding autonomous airpower challenges.

What you'll do

  • Red-team designs, models, and analyses across various programs.
  • Build models and simulations to prove or break specific technical claims.
  • Write and own systems-level requirements for complex defense systems.
  • Develop Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) artifacts like activity and use case diagrams.
  • Perform requirements analysis and system design within a government context.
  • Communicate complex results through strong visual presentations of data to leadership and stakeholders.
  • Support program management and software engineering teams through systems engineering activities.

What we're looking for

  • Must possess and be able to maintain an active U.S. Top Secret security clearance.
  • B.S. in aerospace, mechanical, computer science, or a similar engineering or technical field.
  • 2+ years of Systems Engineering experience across the life cycle.
  • Experience with MODSIM environments like AFSIM or JSE and understanding of their interfaces and behaviors.
  • Experience with requirements analysis, system design, and writing systems-level requirements in a government context.
  • Experience with SysML, DoDAF, UAFP, and developing model-based systems engineering artifacts.
  • Experience with Cameo MagicDraw or similar systems engineering software like Rhapsody or SparxEA.
  • Proficiency with physics-math scripting in MATLAB, Simulink, or Python (preferred).
