Job Description
Job Title: Software Engineer (Onsite)
Location: Lexington MA
Job Type: W2 Contract
Background/Need:
The Group is currently engaged in several research projects which address the topic of air vehicle survivability in hostile environments. These projects have substantial components related to modeling threat sensors detection/track processing communications tactics and target engagement as well as US air vehicles countermeasures and CONOPs. Tooling that enables simulation of these systems the environment in which they interact and the physics of those interactions is required to perform analysis that informs requirements for acquisitions and mission planning.The Group has a need for a Software Developer who possesses a broad range of math or physicsbased software development experience to contribute to the aforementioned studies.
A Software Developer is required to contribute to analyses across a broad range of issues central to the survivability of advanced air vehicles against modern air defenses. The scope of analyses will range from highfidelity onevsone platform engagements to large networked forceonforce simulations.
Responsibilities:
• Development and exercising of air defense sensor detection/tracking command/control and mission planning software tools within a modern objectoriented modular architecture.
• Integration of system analysis and threat modeling into existing modeling capabilities.
• Assist in the preparation of PowerPoint and/or technical reports to convey findings to both internal and external audiences.
• Author clear and thorough documentation of all modified or developed capabilities.
