DEFENSE

Overview:
Systems Engineering Group (SEG), a wholly owned subsidiary of AXIENT LLC, is seeking enthusiastic candidates wanting to support the defense of our nation.  SEG provides an intellectually stimulating environment with excellent opportunities for technical and leadership growth. This position will support the SEG group which characterizes sensor and missile performance against threat ballistic and cruise missiles through modeling, simulation and analysis using digital simulations.

Responsibilities:
Systems Group Overview (work group environment)

Candidate will be part of a team responsible for weapon system simulation and performance analysis. The team develops and integrates individual system models for analysis (threats, weapons, sensors) to include multiple interacting systems. This team contributes to defining, leading and performing analyses for requirements feasibility, sensitivity studies for threat variability and fidelity, asset planning and what-if scenarios, flight-test mission (requirements, planning, and analysis) support and certification efforts.

The group provides independent verification and validation support for internal system-level products. This offers opportunities to work with SEG sensors, vehicles, phenomenology products and engineers integrated within our simulation software development environment to view the battle environment scenes through the eyes of combat systems.

The group includes subject matter experts and technical leads providing direct technical support to various defense programs as a contributing member of broad cross-functional and technical subject-specific integrated product teams.

We bring missile and weapons knowledge together to support concept definition, threat driver assessments, system requirements, design reviews, test planning, and defining roadmaps for future development

 

Responsibilities will include, but are not limited to:

Characterize sensor and missile performance against ballistic and cruise missiles through modeling, simulation and analysis using digital simulations. Characterize sensitivities to missile variability.

Develop, integrate and use analytical models and tools to test new threat data and software products, assess system capability, and drive system requirements and design.

Communicate with external customers and internal technical staff, via correspondence and briefings.

Support technical leadership for internal projects and contribute to external customer forums.

Assist program management in defining future efforts and author technical details of statements of work

A majority of the work is based out of our Columbia, MD office. Travel is occasionally required to participate in technical forums and reviews.

Qualifications:
Minimum Requirements and Preferred Qualifications

Bachelor of Science Degree: Systems Engineering, Aerospace, Mechanical, Electrical, Computer Science, Physics or Applied Math required.

Familiarity with a Linux environment and working with C++

Experience with documentation and presentations via Microsoft office products (Outlook, PowerPoint, Excel, Word)

Self-starter – Demonstrate independent ownership of tasking. Position affords opportunity to define path and lead tasks based on technical understanding of engineering community and appreciation of customer needs.

 

Additional Desired Qualifications:

Active US DoD SECRET or TOP SECRET Security Clearance

Evidence of past digital analysis experience including both defining and executing the analysis

Masters or PhD degree preferred with relevant research project experience

MATLAB skills for generating visual display of quantitative information, and prototyping M&S codes

Python skills supporting modeling and simulation development, data analysis

and creating test drivers

Modeling and analysis experience and capability in one or more of the following areas:

RF Sensors / EO-IR Imaging / Remote Sensing Systems – Signal Processing, Detection and Track Filtering

Multi-Sensor Data Fusion, Target Classification and Discrimination (Machine Learning / AI applications)

Missile Systems (Aerodynamic, Ballistic, Space)

Defense Weapon System Performance (e.g. Navy Surface systems, Ballistic Missile Defense systems)

Ground Test and Field Test Events (missile flight and sensor track pre-event prediction and post-mission assessment)

Familiarity with version-control (Git), issue tracking (JIRA), collaboration software (Confluence), and cross-language software integration tools (SWIG)

Familiarity with high-performance computing environments

Knowledge of aerospace /defense systems technology domains

Demonstrated experience working with Navy, Air Force, and DoD contractors in a software development environment

Mathematical background in areas such as statistics, linear algebra, complex analysis, differential equations, Monte Carlo methods, numerical methods, and machine learning (ML) or artificial Intelligence (AI)
