SEG is seeking a Threat and Weapons System Engineer with ML/AI to be part of a systems analysis team providing technical contributions and analysis for U.S. Surface Navy (e.g. Aegis Baseline) programs and Missile Defense Agency (MDA) Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS) projects

Responsibilities

Responsibilities

Characterize sensor and missile performance against threat ballistic and cruise missiles through modeling, simulation and analysis using digital simulations and machine learning tools. Characterize sensitivities to threat variabilityDevelop, integrate, and use analytical models and tools to test new threat data and software products, assess system capability, and drive system requirements and designDefine technical approach and plan studies based on understanding of engineering community and appreciation of customer needEmploy commercial machine learning tools to characterize large amounts data supporting analysis studies and model generationTravel anticipated at 5 percent of time or less

Systems Group Overview

Candidate will be part of a team responsible for weapon system simulation and performance analysis. The team develops and integrates individual system models for analysis (threats, weapons, sensors) to include multiple interacting systems. This team contributes to defining, leading and performing analyses for requirements feasibility, sensitivity studies for threat variability and fidelity, asset planning and what-if scenarios, flight-test mission (requirements, planning, and analysis) support and certification efforts.The group provides independent verification and validation support for internal system-level products. This offers opportunities to work with SEG sensors, vehicles, phenomenology products and engineers integrated within our simulation software development environment to view the battle environment scenes through the eyes of combat systems.The group includes subject matter experts and technical leads providing direct technical support to various defense programs as a contributing member of broad cross-functional and technical subject-specific integrated product teams.We bring threat and weapons knowledge together to support concept definition, threat driver assessments, system requirements, design reviews, test planning, and defining roadmaps for future development
