Design and implement real-time, pilot-in-the-loop simulation software that enables requirements validation and mission-level evaluation of next-gen tactical aircraft
Create or adapt simulation frameworks and modules (e.g., airframe, kinematics, sensors, weapons, C2, threat models)
Partner with domain SMEs to translate aircraft/weapon physics into high-fidelity, real-time models and integrate them into the overall simulation
Integrate and use advanced GUIs and visualization tools
Model operational environments and perform trade studies via computer simulation resulting in recommendations for system architectures and configurations
Support the design and development of visualization models and databases for integration with a high-fidelity simulation environment

Bachelor of science degree in a STEM discipline with 12 years of related experience, OR a Master of Science degree in a STEM discipline with 10 years of related experience, or a PhD in a STEM discipline and 8 years of related experience
Experience with computer/engineering software development using C++ (preferred), C#, Java or other object-oriented computer language
