Cortina is very proud of the reach‑back it offers to the local community. Not only that, we LOVE our employees and do all we can to ensure they have a great work experience. Come join a company that believes in being a part of something bigger than themselves!

Cortina Solutions is seeking a high‑impact Senior Modeling and Simulation Engineer to lead the execution of a complex contract supporting the Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City Division (NSWC PCD). You must be ready to own the mission, overseeing complex, multi‑domain efforts that shape the future of naval warfare technology. The ideal candidate will be expected to lead with excellence, serve with integrity, and approach every problem with a drive to get things done.

The Senior Modeling and Simulation Engineer provides advanced simulation and modeling support for complex engineering projects, leveraging virtual environments to evaluate system performance, durability, safety, and functionality. This role applies simulation‑based engineering techniques to support design, analysis, and decision‑making across a wide range of engineering applications.

Responsibilities include developing and executing computer simulations, such as probabilistic models, software‑in‑the‑loop (SIL), and hardware‑in‑the‑loop (HIL) simulations, to assess engineering solutions under varied operational conditions. The position utilizes contemporary programming languages, including C++ and Fortran, to model dynamic, multi‑variable scenarios and simulated environments. The role also develops virtual data visualization products, including virtual and augmented reality applications, to represent real‑time simulation results and enhance stakeholder understanding.

Support for simulation development using the Unity game engine is a key component of this position.

• 10+ years of relevant civilian or military professional experience.
• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Modeling and Simulation, or a related technical discipline.
• Demonstrated experience using computer simulation technologies, including probabilistic, SIL, and HIL simulations.
• Proficiency in contemporary programming languages, including C++ and Fortran for simulation and modeling.
• Experience developing virtual data visualization products to display real‑time simulation results.
• Ability to support modeling of complex systems with multiple changing variables.
• Active DOD Secret clearance.

• Advanced degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Modeling and Simulation, or a related technical discipline.
• Experience developing simulations using the Unity game engine.
• Experience with virtual and augmented reality (VR/AR) application development.

• BCBS Medical and Dental Insurance
• VSP Vision
• Flexible Spending Account (FSA) and Dependent Care Reimbursement
• Company‑Paid Life Insurance
• Company‑Paid Short and Long Term Disability Insurance
• Voluntary Term Life Insurance
• Matching 401(k) Plan
• Flexible PTO
• Federal Holidays
• Company Match on Employee Non‑Profit Donations
