The Algorithm and Simulation team is hiring GNC engineers with experience to work in one of the following areas within the organization: State Estimation and Optimization, Flight Controls, Aerodynamics, Guidance Design, or GPS.

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 Salary Grade G08 (Sr. Systems Engineer I) or Salary Grade G09 (Sr. Systems Engineer II) based upon the applicant’s qualifications as they relate to the skills, experience and responsibility requirements of the position.

Required Education, Skills and Experience:

• Bachelor’s Degree in engineering disciplines, natural or physical sciences, mathematics, or physics with four (4) years of applied work experience (MS degree and 2 years of experience or Ph.D. with academic experience)
• Strong academic / analytical background with course work and/or work experience that includes a combination of at least two of the following areas: digital and modern control systems, dynamics, Kalman filter design, signal processing, 6DOF simulations, guidance algorithms, flight control requirements development, or wind tunnel testing
• Four (4) years of applied work experience with Matlab, C, C++, and/or Object Oriented design
• Past work experience with UNIX and LINUX operating systems as well as Microsoft products
• United States citizenship

Other Requirements:

• Must have an existing or the ability to obtain a Department of Defense issued Secret Security clearance. This position requires the eligibility to obtain a security clearance.
