Staff Modeling & Simulation Systems Engineer

At the heart of Defining Possible is our commitment to missions. In rapidly changing global security environments, Northrop Grumman brings informed insights and software-secure technology to enable strategic planning. We’re looking for innovators who can help us keep building on our wide portfolio of secure, affordable, integrated, and multi-domain systems and technologies that fuel those missions. By joining in our shared mission, we’ll support yours of expanding your personal network and developing skills, whether you are new to the field, or an industry thought leader. At Northrop Grumman, you’ll have the resources, support, and team to do some of the best work of your career.

We are looking for a Staff Modeling & Simulation Systems Engineer to join our team in Baltimore, MD. This position requires 100% on-site work.
 
What You Will Get to Do: 
 
As an integral part of the Mission Engineering Section, you will focus on accelerating the delivery of capabilities to our customers through mission studies and system-of-system trades using credible modeling, simulation, experimentation, and analysis processes to assess system architecture alternatives that best deliver the effects, data, and capabilities demanded by tomorrow’s missions.

Roles & Responsibilities:

• Lead Modeling, Simulation and Analysis (MS&A) of advanced systems using model-based workflows and test-driven development to support simulation-based operational analysis activities

• Accelerate delivery of capabilities to our customers through the development and use of advanced models and simulations of platforms, sensors, weapons, and their complex interactions within future mission environments

• Integration of MS&A with operational flight software, collecting and analyzing data from laboratory or flight tests, the verification and validation of simulation performance against flight test data, and formally verifying that the models meet specified requirements

• Produce reports which define the foundation for simulation credibility across all stakeholders and provide the artifacts to support formal simulation Verification, Validation and Accreditation (VVA)

• Independently develop software, design documentation and model and simulation V&V artifacts

• Develop large scale data analytics, probabilities, and statistics, including the application of design of experiment techniques for the evaluation of system and mission performance

• Innovate to solve problems and identify improvements across MSE&A products

• Performs operational analysis and mission effectiveness analysis activities

• Develops new and/or integrates existing system simulation frameworks, performance models and algorithms, threat models and command and control models

• Model operational environments, performs trade studies via computer simulation and recommends alternative architectures

• Develops, integrates, and uses advanced graphical user interfaces and visualization tools
