Mid Modeling & Simulation Engineer — Defense High-Fidelity Simulations

Booz Allen Hamilton; McLean (VA); On-site; USD 62,000 - 141,000; Full time

Job summary

Booz Allen Hamilton seeks a Mid-level Modeling & Simulation Engineer to support multi-domain defense simulations for the Wargaming and Modeling & Simulation team. You will build system models, run high-fidelity physics-based simulations, and perform Monte Carlo analyses to inform strategy and design.

You'll create high-fidelity models for communications networks and systems, ensure alignment with current architecture, and apply engineering rigor to solve complex problems while learning new tools

Qualifications

• 3+ years of experience with physics-based modeling & simulation.
• Experience using government-off-the-shelf (GOTS) tools such as AFSIM, EADSIM, ITASE, Command PE, or NGTS.
• Experience with post-processing simulation results and generating dashboards and briefs of results including quantitative analysis.
• Experience modeling entire systems or components such as sensors, propulsion, vehicles, and weapon systems.
• Knowledge of mission level system functions and dynamics and how to model them including kinematics and motion propagation, sensor and weapon interactions, command chains and networks, and continuous and discrete-event simulations.
• Ability to perform analysis measuring key system performance metrics and verifying model behavior using reference documents and test data.
• Ability to create, test, and debug code in object-oriented programming languages such as Python, Java, C#, or C++.
• Ability to apply engineering rigor to solve engineering and scientific problems.
• Top Secret clearance
• Bachelor’s degree in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Physics, or STEM field

Responsibilities

• Develop and test multi-domain defense simulations.
• Build system-, subsystem-, and component models for high-fidelity analyses.
• Perform Monte Carlo analyses to inform strategy, technology development, and design.
• Model communications networks and systems to support mission concepts.
