Systems Modeling, Simulation and Analysis Engineer
Job Description
Job Description
The group is seeking a Systems Modeling, Simulation and Analysis Engineer to assist in
developing our existing codebases for physics and electronic warfare modelling. These Matlab
codebases allow for modelling of sensors, weapons, and electronic warfare capabilities. The
engineer will work with the team to understand the features that need to be added to the existing
models and the analysis goals. The engineer would leverage their engineering/physics technical
background to understand how to model the desired features and capabilities and implement
them efficiently in the existing codebase. In addition, the engineer would be expected to further
improve the quality of the existing codebase in accordance with software engineering best
practices, and effectively perform analysis runs using the codebase.
Responsibilities include but not limited to:
Independently adding features and capabilities to the existing Matlab codebase, including
the technical background to accurately model basic physics phenomenology in terms of
RF propagation, electronic warfare, missile flyouts, sensors etc.
Performing quality control on new features and the existing code base to include adding
unit tests, and other capabilities to ensure that the results are accurate and that new
features are interacting appropriately with the rest of the codebase.
Working with the team to understand what new features are required in the codebase to
support analysis
In consultation with the team, taking responsibility for overall software architecture and
quality control of the codebase, including how new features should best be added.
Performing modeling runs needed for analysis and building tools that allow for efficient
batch runs and analysis of results.
