Senior Air Systems Threat Modeling Engineer

RPMGlobal; Dayton (OH); On-site; USD 120,000 - 180,000; Full time

Job summary

DCS seeks an Air Systems Modeling Engineer in Dayton, OH, to support full lifecycle threat system model development for manned and autonomous air systems. You will apply NASIC processes to design, validate, and maintain high‑fidelity models used in multi‑vehicle simulations, working with SMEs and analysts to ensure fidelity and mission alignment.

The role requires strong MATLAB/Simulink/Stateflow expertise, air/EW system modeling, and knowledge of multi‑vehicle simulation frameworks; U.S.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in a STEM discipline (engineering, physics, CS, or related).
• Minimum of 8 years in modeling and simulation, aerospace systems analysis, threat modeling, or related field.
• Expertise in MATLAB/Simulink/Stateflow model development and integration workflows.
• Experience developing or supporting aircraft, sensor, or EW‑related models in physics-based or algorithmic environments.
• Familiarity with multi‑vehicle simulation frameworks (AFSIM, NGTS, ITASE, JSE, etc.).
• Strong understanding of aircraft subsystems including sensors, comms, flight dynamics, propulsion, and weapon system integration.
• Ability to interpret technical intelligence, performance data, and system specs for model implementation.
• Strong technical writing skills for V&V reports and subsystem documentation.

Responsibilities

• Develop, maintain, and enhance TMAP manned/unmanned models per NASIC standards.
• Build MATLAB/Simulink/Stateflow threat models from templates and data.
• Maintain and expand Simulink libraries and tools for model generation.
• Ensure models integrate into M&S environments (AFSIM, NGTS, ITASE, JSE).
• Review intelligence assessments to identify performance gaps and modeling deficiencies.
• Analyze threat air systems with Government Task Manager coordination.
• Verify model performance and document TVVR findings.
• Produce studies and reports detailing architecture, assumptions, and fidelity.
