Job description

Location: Fort Belvoir, VA (on-site).

Position is contingent upon task award/funding.

Responsibilities

• Conduct infrastructure analysis and vulnerability assessments of complex facilities, including hardened, deeply buried, and WMD-associated targets, evaluating structural and system-level weaknesses.
• Develop and apply systems of systems (SoS) modeling approaches to characterize interdependencies across critical infrastructure networks.
• Analyze and assess facility-level engineering systems—including water distribution, electrical power, and HVAC systems—within WMD facilities and HDBTs to support targeting and defeat planning.
• Perform 3D facility characterization using available engineering data, imagery, and geospatial information to support model development and target analysis products.
• Execute model validation activities to ensure analytical tools and simulations accurately reflect real-world physical conditions and engineering parameters.
• Apply conventional weapons effects models to assess structural response, system degradation, and defeat probabilities across a range of target types and weapon configurations.
• Support analyses of alternatives (AoA) by evaluating competing technical approaches, methodologies, and defeat strategies to inform decision-maker recommendations.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering or a closely related engineering discipline.
• 8+ years of relevant professional experience in civil or structural engineering, with demonstrated application in systems analysis, vulnerability assessment, or related technical domains.
• Working knowledge of conventional weapons effects and associated modeling tools (e.g., MEVA, BlastX, or equivalent government/DOD-approved models).
• Demonstrated experience with infrastructure systems analysis, including assessment of mechanical, electrical, or utility systems within complex facilities.
• Familiarity with 3D modeling, CAD tools, or geospatial platforms used for facility characterization and target visualization.
• Ability to conduct and document structured analyses of alternatives with clear, technically defensible methodologies.
• US Citizen with an Active Top Secret/SCI security clearance (required at time of application).

Desired Qualifications

• Prior experience supporting DOD, DIA, or Intelligence Community (IC) programs related to target analysis, defeat planning, or WMD/HDBT assessments.
• Familiarity with HDBT defeat planning methodologies and associated government doctrine, publications, or analytical frameworks.
• Experience with systems of systems (SoS) modeling frameworks or multi-domain simulation environments used in government or defense contexts.
• Professional Engineer (PE) license or active pursuit of licensure.
• Graduate degree (M.S.) in Civil Engineering, Structural Engineering, or a related technical discipline.
