Job Description:

Cortina Solutions is seeking a high-impact Lead Modeling and Simulation Engineer to lead the execution of a complex contract supporting the Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City Division (NSWC PCD). You must be ready to own the mission, overseeing complex, multi-domain efforts that shape the future of naval warfare technology. The ideal candidate will be expected to lead with Excellence, serve with Integrity, and approach every problem with a drive to Get Things Done.

The Lead Modeling and Simulation Engineer provides advanced simulation and modeling support for complex engineering projects, leveraging virtual environments to evaluate system performance, durability, safety, and functionality. This role applies simulation-based engineering techniques to support design, analysis, and decision-making across a wide range of engineering applications.

Responsibilities include developing and executing computer simulations, such as probabilistic models, software-in-the-loop (SIL), and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulations, to assess engineering solutions under varied operational conditions. The position utilizes contemporary programming languages, including C++ and Fortran, to model dynamic, multi-variable scenarios and simulated environments. The role also develops virtual data visualization products, including virtual and augmented reality applications, to represent real-time simulation results and enhance stakeholder understanding. Support for simulation development using the Unity game engine is a key component of this position.

Job Requirements:

• 10+ years of relevant civilian or military professional experience.
• Bachelors degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Modeling and Simulation, or a related technical discipline.
• Demonstrated experience using computer simulation technologies, including probabilistic, SIL, and HIL simulations.
• Proficiency in contemporary programming languages including C++ and Fortran for simulation and modeling.
• Experience developing virtual data visualization products to display real-time simulation results.
• Ability to support modeling of complex systems with multiple changing variables.
• Active DOD Secret clearance.

Preferred Requirements:

• Advanced degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Modeling and Simulation, or a related technical discipline.
• Experience developing simulations using the Unitygame engine.
• Experience with virtual and augmented reality (VR/AR) application development.

Benefits:

• BCBS Medical and Dental Insurance

• VSP Vision

• Flexible spending Account (FSA) and Dependent Care Reimbursement
• Health Savings Account (HSA)

• Company-paid Life Insurance

• Company-paidShort and Long TermDisability Insurance

• Voluntary Term Life Insurance
