DESCRIPTION:The Labs & Technical Services (L&TS) Conceptual Sims Software team is looking for a software engineer to develop low-to-medium fidelity models (such as aircraft weapon, sensor, environment and threat models) used in man-in-the-loop simulations. This position offers the opportunity to travel within the United States and internationally.

Successful candidate will work as an integral part of a highly motivated team with a broad range of responsibilities to include simulation software requirements, design, development, integration, and verification.

L&TS is a highly innovative organization responsible for developing and maintaining manned aircraft weapon simulation systems utilized for weapons systems development from concept design through production and delivery. Within L&TS resides an extensive selection of simulators and software/systems integration test capabilities, including low-cost rapid prototyping concept development systems, full-dome handling qualities simulations, high-fidelity multi-ship, real-time, man-in-the-loop simulation systems, and hardware-in-the-loop mission systems and vehicle systems integration venues. Our products are used to advance weapon systems development, strengthen pilot familiarization, assess human factors, evaluate aircraft control laws, improve mission study effectiveness, provide test capabilities required for contract verification and provide integration testing and verification capabilities for aircraft systems and software.

This position may require unique program security clearances that will be initiated upon selection and acceptance in filling this position. Final approval of these security clearances is dependent upon the Department of Defense (DoD) and could take an extensive amount of time to be granted.
