• Utilize modeling methodologies to enable the evaluation and optimization of design parameters and Figures of Merit during the system synthesis of complex aerospace systems

Conduct Data Analytics and Optimization:

• Design and develop data-driven models and analytics applications using tools like Python, MATLAB, Mathcad and Simulink.
• Apply advanced analytical techniques, including statistical analysis, data mining, machine learning, and potentially deep learning, to extract insights from large datasets.
• Analyze complex datasets to identify trends, anomalies, and key performance indicators, enhancing model accuracy and providing actionable insights.
• Develop and implement algorithms that leverage analytical findings to optimize operational efficiencies.

System Performance Evaluation and Analysis:

• Perform operational and mission effectiveness analysis.
• Utilize data analytics for system performance monitoring, anomaly detection, and optimization.

Collaboration and Communication:

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including government stakeholders, software developers, and domain experts.
• Communicate technical information effectively to both technical and non-technical audiences through reports and briefings.

• System Requirements and Design Support: Translate user needs into technical system requirements and support concept development, trade studies, and subsystem reviews.
• Documentation and Configuration Management: Develop and maintain model artifacts, supporting documentation, and ensuring requirements traceability within MBSE models.
• Continuous Improvement: Proactively identify opportunities to improve processes and solutions and contribute to the evolution of advanced technology solutions.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in a STEM field (e.g., Systems Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Mathematics, Physics).
• 5 years of experience in Modeling & Analysis.
• Proficiency in programming languages such as C , Python, or MATLAB.
• Experience with MBSE methodologies and tools (e.g., Cameo/MagicDraw, SysML).
• Demonstrated experience with data analytics and related tools/techniques.
• Experience in developing and analyzing complex system models and simulations.
• Strong understanding of systems engineering principles and methodologies.
• Excellent communication, interpersonal, and problem-solving skills.
• Ability to work both independently and collaboratively within a team environment.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Background in machine learning, artificial intelligence, or data science.
• Familiarity with cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, Azure) and containerization technologies (e.g., Docker).
• Experience with version control tools such as Git or similar.
• Familiarity with Agile development methodologies.
• Experience working with large datasets and related tools (e.g., databases, visualization tools like Tableau or Power BI).
