Description
SAIC is seeking motivated and detail-oriented Senior Modeling and Simulation Analysts - Senior Engineers to join our dynamic team. The successful candidates will work closely with other analysts and engineers to support the development and implementation of modeling and simulation (M&S) solutions for a variety of Mission Engineering projects. This role will involve contributing to operational planning, system performance analysis, and mission effectiveness studies. The ideal candidate will have strong analytical skills and a passion for leveraging technology to solve complex problems.
The candidates will support the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Research & Engineering (OUSD(R&E)) Mission Integration office (https://ac.cto.mil/mission-engineering/) in the design and execution of mission engineering studies to evaluate operational mission architectures and capability gaps and assess emerging capabilities, technologies, and concepts to meet evolving joint mission objectives.
This position will be 100% onsite in Alexandria, VA.
Note: this position is contingent.
Key Responsibilities:
- Support Modeling and Simulation Activities: Participate in the design, development, and execution of M&S projects under the guidance of senior analysts. This includes creating models, running simulations, and performing data analysis to evaluate system performance and mission outcomes.
- Data Analysis and Interpretation: Assist in collecting, processing, and analyzing simulation data. Use statistical and analytical methods to interpret the results and provide insights and recommendations based on the findings.
- Documentation and Reporting: Contribute to the preparation of technical documentation, including model descriptions, simulation plans, and analysis reports. Ensure that all documentation is accurate, comprehensive, and adheres to project standards.
- Collaboration and Communication: Work collaboratively with cross-functional teams, including engineers, analysts, and project managers, to ensure alignment of M&S activities with project objectives. Communicate findings effectively to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
