• The primary role of the Modeling and Simulation (M&S) Product Team Lead will be developing emulators, integrating 3rd party simulators, developing scenarios, and anchoring models and system behaviors for the organization on the program
• As a secondary role, the M&S Product Team Lead will also be expected to occasionally contribute technical expertise in support of the co-located Experimentation Lab (X-Lab) 
• The M&S Product Team Lead will support a broad range of topics, with increasing scope and complexity as assigned
• Topics in the past have included development of sensor emulation, interface exchange behaviors, scenario development, coordinate transforms of state vectors and covariances between various coordinate systems transformations, implementation of Kalman filtering, radar signal processing, various metaheuristics for performance optimization problems, and use case development and testing

The M&S Product Team Lead will be responsible for the following:

• Work closely in agile teams to understand concepts, algorithms, and logging in order to prototype Modeling and Simulation Tools and generate scenario datasets
• Utilize math, physics, statistics, data parsing, plotting, and database techniques to develop Algorithm Description Documents (ADDs) and algorithm reference implementations and commit them to Git repositories for version control
• Develop unit tests, preferably as Cucumber scenarios, in order to support the transition and development of MATLAB reference implementations in Java
• Use DevSecOps principles to setup and maintain nightly pipelines to support automated analysis / test and continuous integration testing of algorithm reference implementations
• Provide demonstrations of their ADDs and reference implementations as part of Agile sprints with their respective Integrated Product Team (IPT) to Project Owners (POs) and Release Train Engineer (RTE)
• Provide technical support in order to develop M&S tools that help verify and validate the tactical implementation of algorithms
• Develop technical briefs and present briefings to both internal and external stakeholders at Technical Interchange Meetings (TIMs)
• Complete understanding and wide application of technical principle, theories, and concepts in the field
• Having a general knowledge of other related disciplines
• Provide technical solutions to a wide range of complex difficult problems (solutions are imaginative, thorough, practicable, and consistent with organizational objectives
• Work under only general direction and independently determine and develop approaches to solutions; work will be reviewed upon completion for adequacy in meeting objectives
• Contribute to the completion of specific programs and projects (failure to obtain results or erroneous decisions or recommendations would typically result in serious program delays and considerable expenditure of resources)
• Frequently interface internally with Integrated Product Teams (IPT) of other systems engineers, software developers, and analysts
• Frequently interface externally with Federally Funded Research and Development Contracts (FFRDCs) and government customer contacts
• Represent the organization in providing solutions to difficult technical issues associated with specific projects
• Interfacing with the RTE and POs in order to develop and maintain the M&S IPT Backlog within JIRA
• Contribute to the M&S IPT completion of stories
• Mentor junior engineers on the M&S IPT

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Physics, Mathematics, or related Science / Engineering discipline, or equivalent experience/combined education, with 9 years of professional experience; or 7 years of professional experience with a related Master's degree
• Active Secret Clearance, Top Secret desired
• Strong math and physics, including probability and statistics, linear algebra, and calculus
• Must have ability to use MATLAB or similar languages (Python, Perl, Bash, Mathematica, JavaScript, etc.) to perform prototyping, data visualization, scripting, parsing, and functional programming
• Strong analytical skill including Monte Carlo analysis and statistical regression
• The ability to use MATLAB, Linux, databases, Git, Bitbucket, Jenkins/Hudson, Jira, Cucumber, Confluence, Twiki, and regular expressions
• Familiarity with Linux and/or Unix based development
• Developing and working with mathematical models
• Algorithm engineering to solve computer algorithm problems, including design, analysis, implementation, optimization, profiling, and experimental evaluation
• Systems engineering and software engineering processes and principles
• Modeling and simulation of large complex systems
• Machine learning techniques and metaheuristics
• Verification & Validation (V&V) testing of complex software systems
• Surveillance and target acquisition, track state estimation and correlation, track-to-truth mapping, state vectors, tracking covariances, coordinate conversions, time conversions, and EOIR/RF phenomenology, scheduling and resource management, identification and discrimination, battle management, signal processing, and/or orbital dynamics
• Agile software development processes
• Distributed application environments coded in Java, C , or other Object-Oriented languages
