About the position

Peraton is currently seeking an experienced Operations Research Analyst with Joint Deployment and Distribution Enterprise (JDDE) experience/knowledge to work in the Joint Distribution Process Analysis Center (JDPAC) at USTRANSCOM. The mission of this role is to provide analysis support to improve the nation's ability to move and sustain our forces throughout the globe. This position is located on-site at Scott Air Force Base, Illinois. In this role, you will be responsible for supporting Research, Development, Testing & Evaluation (RDT&E) for Modeling, Simulation & Optimization (MS&O) applications and prototypes that are produced in support of or being adapted for JDDE movement processes. You will also support data analysis to ensure that all designated ongoing and future RDT&E, Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS), and Government Off-The-Shelf (GOTS) MS&O applications progress to meet USTRANSCOM objectives.
