Job Description

MTSI is seeking to hire a motivated engineer with 5-10 years of experience in modeling & simulation, particularly with AFSIM or similar mission-level frameworks. The candidate will support a team delivering high-fidelity modeling, simulation, and analytical products of kinetic weapon system concepts for the Missile Defense Agency. This role offers the opportunity to work on high visibility, cutting-edge missile system programs and contribute to innovative solutions for national defense.

Key Responsibilities:

• Support mission-level modeling and simulation of weapon systems using AFSIM and related tools.
• Develop and maintain C++ models for fire control, engagement kinematics, and missile system performance.
• Conduct performance analysis and scenario-based simulations to evaluate GNC and fire control effectiveness.
• Collaborate with GNC engineers to integrate models, run large-scale simulations, and analyze results for missile and kinetic weapon concepts.
• Develop analytical products, technical reports, briefings, and visualizations to support DoD program decisions.
• Contribute to ongoing modeling and simulation efforts, including tool enhancement and scenario development.

Qualifications:

• U.S. Citizenship required (and ability to obtain security clearance).
• Bachelor’s degree in Aerospace Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field (MS preferred).
• 5-10 years of experience in modeling & simulation, preferably with AFSIM or other mission-level frameworks.
• Strong software development skills with solid understanding of object-oriented programming principles in C++.
• Experience developing, modifying, and debugging complex simulation models in C++.
• Familiarity with 6-DOF simulations, fire control systems, engagement modeling, or GNC concepts.
• Proficiency with modeling and simulation tools such as AFSIM, MATLAB, and Python.
• Ability to perform detailed system-level performance analysis and support requirements development.
• Strong problem-solving, analytical, and communication skills.
