Air Vehicle Modeling and Simulation Analyst

Air Vehicle Modeling and Simulation Analyst

The Opportunity: 

Your engineering skills and determination are needed to develop the cutting-edge technology used to support the warfighter and maintain national security. Join an energetic team whose day-to-day mission involves breaking down the Air Force’s toughest challenges and communicating the essential results of that work to their leadership. As an aerospace or mechanical engineer, you understand the complexities of modern aerospace vehicles. That knowledge is key when it comes to modeling fixed-wing aircraft, rotary-wing aircraft, and weapon systems. We’re looking for a problem solver who can use their skills to help perform detailed analyses, including the evaluation of missile performance and survivability analyses of weapon systems and platforms. We’re looking for lifelong learners and motivated, independent thinkers who can contribute to a fast-paced, team environment focused on client delivery. This is an opportunity to hone your technical abilities on significant and current engineering problems, all while gaining experience in leadership and communication.

Our modeling and simulation team performs a variety of classified analyses of weapon and platform concepts for DoD clients, and we also develop the detailed models and simulations required. That’s why we need you, an aerospace or mechanical engineer, with a solid background in aerodynamics, control theory, and flight dynamics to build models of cutting-edge aerospace systems. You’ll also perform modeling tasks, including building aerodynamic coefficient tables, calculating flight envelopes, and the development and refinement of aircraft models in Fortran, C++, MATLAB, and Simulink. You’ll directly impact the Air Force’s mission by helping determine what tactics, techniques, and procedures to improve survivability and vulnerability against threat systems as well as helping make an informed decision for the acquisition of future systems.
