Lethality Analyst - Mid-Level

Responsibilities

• Technical ability to run endgame lethality codes, such as KWEval and BALAGAN, produce output, and generate briefings and reports on findings
• Technical ability to interpret code output, identify trends, assess code stability, assess output integrity, inform code updates where needed
• Technical ability to support lethality M&S accreditation efforts. Regular and valuable interaction and coordination with a team: emails, VTC and face‑to‑face meetings, status updates, TIMs, briefings and other contractual requirements
• Self‑motivated, possess strong oral and written communication skills, and have the ability to work effectively in a fast‑paced, dynamic, technically advanced, team environment
• Skill to track program status, and adapt to changing/evolving milestones

• BS (minimum) MS (desired) degree in Mechanical, Electrical, or Aerospace Engineering, or Physics/Math
• Minimum 5 years of direct experience in modeling simulation and analysis, preferably lethality tools

• Proficiency in C++ and Python, with experience developing reliable, production‑quality software
• Hands‑on data analysis experience using pandas and matplotlib for data cleaning, transformation, and visualization
• Experience with multi‑fidelity modeling, including leveraging higher‑fidelity models to inform the development of lower‑fidelity, faster‑running algorithms without sacrificing critical accuracy
• Familiarity with Parquet file formats, including reading, writing, parsing, and manipulating Parquet files in both C++ and Python
• Strong foundation in probabilistic science, including statistical modeling, uncertainty quantification, and probability‑driven algorithm design
• Exceptional algorithm documentation skills, clearly explaining logic, assumptions, and design
• Experience designing and/or using mission planning software
• Systems engineering experience, preferably in the Defense industry, including
• Assessing and communicating software and system requirements
• Designing and executing verification strategies to ensure requirements are met
• Understanding the integration of software components within larger system architectures

• Experience with Tensor Flow, PyTorch, or Keras (ML workflows, data preprocessing, model evaluation)
• SQL/database querying background, including relational modeling, filtering, and query optimization
• Skilled in MS Office products, including development of Excel scripts for data analysis and plotting. Proficient in creating engagement scenarios taking system performance definitions and running in fast‑running codes, such as KWEval and BALAGAN
