Position Overview:
The Command and Control, Battle Management, and Communications (C2BMC) program integrates the Missile Defense System. It is a vital operational system that enables the U.S. president, secretary of defense, and combatant commanders at strategic, regional, and operational levels to systematically plan ballistic missile defense operations, to see the battle develop collectively, and to dynamically manage designated networked sensors and weapons systems to achieve global and regional mission objectives.
C2BMC supports a layered missile defense capability that enables an optimized response to threats of all ranges in all phases of flight. C2BMC is the force multiplier that globally and regionally networks integrate, synchronizing autonomous sensor and weapon systems and operations to optimize performance. C2BMC is integral to all system ground and flight tests, which verify and exercise all current and future missile defense system capabilities.
Applicant will be expected to provide technical expertise in the area of MDS modeling and simulation integration, characterization, and/or analysis. As part of an Agile Scrum team, the applicant will develop, and complete features and stories mapped to program objectives
Essential Functions:

Plan and execute assessment characterization on C2BMC and its interactions with current and planned MDS assets
* Document analysis results in reports and briefings
* Present analysis results to a variety of audiences; develop requirements for large, complex system models/simulations and or test/analysis tools
* Execute, test, and evaluate MDS level, large scale models/simulations; develop, test, and evaluate threat scenarios
Basic Qualifications:
Please note your updated security clearance and IAT/relevant certifications on your resume, if applicable.

Bachelor's Degree in a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics) discipline preferred from an accredited university and 5 years of related experience, or a Master's degree and 3 years of experience, or a PhD and 1 years of experience, or 9 years of related experience in lieu of a degree may be considered.
* Applicant must have a solid engineering background that covers a variety of disciplines which support integration and assessment of missile defense models into a federated architecture.
* Technical specialty areas may include but are not limited to performance analysis and characterization of large-scale complex system simulations including ballistic missile threats, weapon systems, command and control, RF sensors, and IR sensors.
* Ability and willingness to travel up-to 10% to support business needs
* Applicants must have a current active in-scope U.S. Government DoD issued Secret security clearance at the time of application which is required to start.
Preferred Qualifications:
