The Strategic Division (SD) supports high-reliability organizations including Navy Strategic Systems Programs (SSP), Air Force Nuclear Weapons Center (AFNWC), and the Department of Energy (DOE), among others. Our support across our client base is expanding rapidly and encompasses important services, such as data analytics and visualization, threat analysis, risk management, modeling and simulation, cost estimating, earned value management, independent evaluation, and High Consequence Event prevention.
The Sentinel Intercontinental Ballistic Missile Group (SIG) supports the AFNWC in the acquisition of the LGM-35A Sentinel (GBSD) ICBM weapon system. SIG delivers program management, systems engineering, and subject matter expertise to ensure on-time delivery of a safe, secure, and reliable strategic nuclear weapon system.
SPA has an immediate need for a Modeling & Simulation Developer.
This Senior MS&A Developer will serve as an integral part of the LGM-35A Sentinel Aerospace Vehicle Equipment (AVE) Analysis Branch. The AVE Division has a critical function within the Sentinel program, evaluating the design of solid rocket motors; guidance equipment; and post-boost propulsion systems. The Analysis Branch is developing a six degrees of freedom (6-DOF) model to evaluate flight performance of the Sentinel ICBM currently in development. The successful candidate will work with a team of dedicated and experienced engineers and developers to complete this 6-DOF simulation as well as other critical MS&A tools.
This Senior MS&A Developer will assist the team in the creation, review, and test of advanced rocket and missile dynamics and performance simulations. The ideal candidate can: apply extensive engineering knowledge to ensure correct principles, theories, concepts, practices, and techniques are integral to the MS&A tools which they are developing; ensure accuracy and completeness of content, recommending corrective actions and providing support to programmatic and technical briefings, reports and other related documentation; and be able to plan, coordinate, execute, and complete tasks related to engineering processes, protocols, and implementation for the LGM-35A Sentinel System Program Office.
Required Qualifications:
- A Bachelor's degree or higher in: Aerospace, Mechanical, Electrical, or Software Engineering, Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics, or a related technical field.
- Understanding of agile software development practices and procedures.
- Experience with 6-degree-of-freedom simulations or modeling and simulation.
- Developer level proficiency with coding languages such as C++, Fortran, Python, etc.
Desired Qualifications:
- The ability to achieve and maintain a US DoD Top Secret Security Clearance. Active security clearance is preferred, but not required.
- 3 years of experience in systems design, integration and analysis of military hardware and software systems/processes.
