Do you want to work within a Virtual World?

Do you have a passion for “living in the code” of detailed models and simulations?

Would you thrive by developing modeling & analysis solutions to solve complex problems?

If your answers are yes, the Modeling, Simulation and Analysis (MSA) teams at Raytheon Missiles & Defense (RMD) may have an ideal job for you! The Tucson, AZ, facility is searching for several Mid-level Modeling/Simulation/Analysis Engineers to join a growing team of engineering professionals who share a mission of protecting our war fighters and allies.

The MSA teams within the Systems Design & Performance (SD&P) directorate provide, develop, and maintain high fidelity performance simulations (including multiple sensor channels, scene generation capability, control hardware, physical environment, and embedded software), execute system performance analysis (including pre-flight prediction, post flight matching, and verification and validation), support new business initiatives and develop & execute technology roadmaps. Our departments’ engineers are versatile, eager to learn, innovative, and self-motivated. Learn more and apply today!

U.S. Citizenship status is required, as this position needs an active U.S. Security Clearance as of day one of employment.

Note: This position can be a Sr. Systems Engineer I (G08) or a Sr. Systems Engineer II (G09) based upon the applicant’s qualifications as they relate to the skills, leadership, experience and responsibility requirements of the position.

Job Description and Key Tasks:

The Mid-level Modeling/Simulation/Analysis Engineer will create high fidelity simulations and models for missile component and system design, performance assessment, and flight test support.
