Job summary

Space Systems Integration LLC in Colorado Springs seeks a Multi-Domain Sensing Engineer/Model Simulation Analyst to develop missile warning and tracking simulations, run M&S analyses, and coordinate cross-agency modeling efforts. You will use AFSIM, STK, SOAP, Python, and Matlab to support space ISR concept validation and force design decisions.

The role requires a TS clearance, extensive space systems experience, and ability to communicate complex results to senior leaders.

Qualifications

• Min. 10 years of experience with BS degree, 8 years with Masters degree.
• Experience developing complex space system models and simulations in AFSIM; STK and/or SOAP highly desired.
• Experience developing simulation scripts and interface code using Python and/or Matlab.
• 5+ years of space system modeling and simulation experience including analyzing results.
• In depth understanding of MW/MT systems and operations.
• STEM bachelor's degree (master's preferred).
• Strong communication skills.
• Ability to understand complex technical issues and produce recommendations for a wide audience.
• Experience with space design, architecture, and/or system development (desired).
• Knowledge of how to work in a classified and compartmented working environment is required.
• Active TS clearance with in-scope T5/SSBI is required, along with SCI eligibility and participation in Continuous Evaluation.
• Current polygraph (within 5 years) is desired.
• Must meet all requirements for SCI and SAP access and be willing to undergo a polygraph examination.
• Travel is 10%.

Responsibilities

• Develop target (missile) and effector simulations and corresponding trajectory and behavior files using AF SIM.
• Develop modeling and simulation analysis and assessment scripts using Python and/or Matlab.
• Develop space-based missile warning access and performance models using STK or SOAP and integrate SWAC space-based ISR capability area designs with modeling and simulation expertise.
• Assist in force design analysis planning, analysis execution coordination, and analysis results evaluation.
• Recommend and document force design dependencies and opportunities (joint, IC, industry, international, DoD).
• Assist with modeling inputs and simulation development for external M&S efforts.
• Collaborate in cross-functional planning, coordination and task execution for a force design effort.
• Coordinate efforts internally and externally with multiple agencies/organizations.
