Principal Modeling and Simulation Engineer

Modern Technology Solutions, Inc. (MTSI) is looking for a Principal Modeling & Simulations Engineer to work with a high bandwidth, multi‑location team primarily developing AFSIM models for integration into kill web simulations. The selected candidate will work onsite in Huntsville, AL or Colorado Springs, CO.

• Produce analytical products detailing performance impacts that advanced technologies provide within the kill web.
• Provide Modeling and Simulation Analysis for strategic mission communications, satellite, and radio navigation signal generation.
• Model weapon system performance in real‑world environments by analyzing critical sensor and weapon platforms, command, control, communications, and computers (C4) and decision processes.
• Develop representations of Missile Defense System architecture elements.
• Provide mission level modeling execution using the Advanced Framework for Simulation, Integration and Modeling (AFSIM).
• Develop, apply, and evaluate advanced technologies that highlight concept solutions across multiple domains (air, land, sea, space) and mission areas.
• Provide technical integration and implementation of other system simulation tools (e.g., missile or space vehicle six‑degree‑of‑freedom, sensor/detector hardware) to analyze mission level communication technologies captured in AFSIM.
• Deliver metrics‑based products and executive‑level presentations and assist in producing simulation‑driven visualizations.
• Support special studies as needed to include experimental efforts showing concept feasibility, analysis, data integration, and software development for communication technologies.
• Provide excellent customer support and demonstrate an ability to communicate with all levels of leadership and/or customers.

• Active Secret Clearance required with the ability to obtain TS / SCI and prior experience with Special Access Programs; US Citizenship required.
• Bachelor's degree in engineering, Physics, Mathematics, Computer Science, or related technical field required, and 8 years' related experience.
• Experience working on classified and special access programs.
• Experience with modern architecture frameworks and designs.
• Experience performing R&D, technology maturation and insertion, analysis, testing, and systems engineering.
• Possess solid working knowledge and experience base in the development and production of multi‑fidelity closed‑loop simulation capabilities for weapons, sensors, communications, directed energy, or Cyber systems to include electronic attack / electronic protection.
• Must be highly motivated, adept at exploring and learning about new technologies and have a demonstrated record of successfully taking ownership and responsibility for projects.
• Must have the ability to multi‑task, respond to quick turn‑around requests, and produce quality products with minimal oversight.
• Possess exceptional written and oral communication skills, ability to develop clear, concise, and logically written business communications, as well as deliver recommendations to internal and external stakeholders.
• Demonstrated effectiveness working in a complex, service‑intensive, deadline‑driven environment.
• Ability to build strong relationships to leverage information and insights across key groups.
• Strong personal leadership, organizational, relationship‑building, and negotiation skills.
• Self‑motivated yet able to work well within a development team.

• 25% travel within the US will be required.

• MS or PhD preferred.
• 12+ years of relevant technical experience.
• Software development skills include but not limited to C++, Python, Matlab, and
  
  C.
• Experience working in Windows and Linux operating system environments.
• Experience with integration of models from different coding languages.
• Experience with hypersonic advanced concepts and strategic missions.
• Familiarity with Electronic Warfare, Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance (ISR), time sensitive targeting (TST), Joint All‑Domain Command and Control (JADC2), and Missile Defense.
