Strong candidates will have a solid engineering background with hands-on lab experience and leadership experience across a variety of technical disciplines. This position is located in the Dayton, OH area.

Your essential job functions will include but may not be limited to:

• Analyze and document system design, operation, architecture, and subsystem interactions.

• Develop models, algorithms and associated simulation software and will perform trade-space analysis to assess and verify system characteristics and capabilities.

• Document all software and hardware characteristics and changes to existing and new simulation environments; test architecture design and test planning; experimental design and test execution; data collection and analysis; and report generation.

• You will integrate models into complex simulation architectures, including engagement-level simulations, theater-level simulations, hardware-in-the-loop architectures.

Qualifications:

Required

• Experience with at least one programming/software development language (C, C++, Python, MATLAB/Simulink).

• A basic understanding of aerospace system functions and dynamics, and how to model them, such as detailed sub-system models and flight dynamics models.

• Demonstrate abilities to solve difficult hardware and software integration challenges.

• Be a motivated self-starter who is able to work both independently and in a collaborative team environment, often with minimal guidance and within rigid timelines.
