Job description

This position is part of the Rotary and Mission Systems business area, where employees across Canada support engineering, systems integration, training, sustainment and in‑service support programs for Canadian and international military customers across land, air and sea.

Specific Job Description:

The Electronic Attack (EA) Analyst will be responsible for developing EA mission libraries for the Royal Canadian Navy (RCN) at the Naval Electronic Warfare Centre (NEWC) in Ottawa Canada. The EA Analyst will be embedded at NEWC to develop engagement models in Ship Air Defence Model (SADM) and use other Modelling and Simulation (M&S) tools to create and test the mission libraries. The engagement models may include ship, environment, sensors (Radar, Electro‑optics, and Infrared), EA assets (Chaff, Decoys and Jammers) as well as threat systems. The EA Analyst will also support documentation as well as Verification and Validation (V&V) of the digital models. Other responsibilities may include supporting shore‑based and sea trials.

Responsibilities may include:

• Conduct open and classified literature research and engineering analysis for system parameters and behaviours
• Perform mathematical modelling based on first principles to estimate system parameters
• Develop parametric models
• Conduct simulation engagements between the various entities (ship, threat systems)
• Execute Monte Carlo simulations and analysis
• Perform analysis and verification activities to confirm system model behaviours
• Document simulation results.

Required skills, qualifications and experience:

• A bachelor’s degree in mathematics, physics or engineering relevant to the role with five years professional experience or a master’s degree with three years’ experience
• Experience with Radar systems design, radar signal processing and analysis
• Radio Frequency (RF) theory
• Ability to obtain a Secret clearance

Desired skills, qualifications and experience:

• A master’s or PhD degree in mathematics, physics, or engineering
• Physics‑based modelling and simulation experience using SADM, MATLAB/Simulink
• Electronic Warfare (EW) systems design and analysis
• EA and electronic protection concepts and systems
• Electronic support measures design and analysis
• Antenna design and analysis
• Guided weapon systems (autopilots, tracking, guidance, navigation, and control)
• Military systems modelling and simulation.
