Job description

from Johns Hopkins APL careers
Description

Are you passionate about improving Precision Strike capabilities for the United States warfighter?

 

Do you love solving complex problems with sophisticated modeling and simulation (M&S) tools?

 

Do you thrive in dynamic, collaborative, and fun work environments?

 

If so, we're looking for someone like you to join our team at APL!

 

We are seeking a Modeling and Simulation Integration Engineer to characterize and evaluate missile system performance against Precision Strike platforms in complex environments. We are a well-rounded and hardworking team of analysts and developers who support a wide range of government sponsors with many exciting technical problems. As a member of our team, you will develop and use high-fidelity simulation tools to conduct physics-based engagement-level and mission-level analyses, while collaborating with specialists and integrating M&S tools in other fields including (but not limited to): aerodynamics, GNC, propulsion, radar engineering, electronic warfare, software development, systems engineering, and more.

 

As a Modeling and Simulation Integration Engineer…

  • Your primary responsibility will be to evaluate precision strike platform effectiveness by developing, using, and integrating together an assortment of medium to high fidelity engagement-level modeling and simulation tools across multiple technical specialty areas.
  • You will design and execute structured physics-based one-vs-one and one-vs-few simulation experiments to explore system performance, sensitivities, and trade spaces.
