Roles and Responsibilities will include:

• Design, develop, integrate, and test physics‑based, real‑time engineering simulations supporting mission‑level Operator‑In‑The‑Loop (OITL) environments.
• Implement and maintain software components that model sensor/payload operations and advanced Electronic Warfare (EW) effects, using modern frameworks and object‑oriented programming languages (e.g., C#/C++, Java).
• Perform trade studies via computer simulation to compare architectures and recommend software and system design alternatives.
• Develop, integrate, and refine advanced graphical user interfaces and visualization tools to support operator interaction and mission analysis.
• Utilize software and analytical tools to model system behavior in real‑time and constructive simulations, focusing on robust, scalable, and maintainable code.
• Conduct software builds and installations, perform smoke tests, and drive automated/continuous integration test approaches to ensure software quality.
• Debug complex software issues, optimize performance, and enhance existing simulation capabilities based on test results and user feedback.
• Periodically demonstrate integrated software capabilities to sector leadership and key customers and incorporate feedback into the product roadmap.
• Collaborate within Integrated Product Teams (IPTs) to define requirements, design interfaces, and deliver integrated mission‑simulation solutions across multiple security environments, programs, and platforms.
