About the position

The Modeling and Simulation Engineer at Raytheon will play a crucial role in the design and development of advanced Land and Air Defense Systems. This position requires technical expertise and engineering leadership to drive the development of complex systems that support national defense missions. The engineer will collaborate with cross-functional teams to manage technical risks, develop modeling tools, and incorporate radar and effector system concepts into simulations.

Responsibilities

• Communicate with cross-functional engineering teams to coordinate design plans and requirements analysis.
• Manage program technical risks by evaluating requirements and design aspects.
• Develop and maintain modeling tools incorporating Digital Signal Processing (DSP) with complex time domain elements.
• Incorporate radar system concepts including detection, discrimination, track and signal processing algorithms to model their behaviors and performance.
• Incorporate effector system concepts including guidance and fuzing to model their behaviors and performance.

Requirements

• Typically requires a Bachelor's in Science, Technology, Engineering, or Mathematics (STEM) and 4 years of prior relevant experience, or an Advanced Degree in a related field and 2 years of prior relevant experience.
• In absence of a degree, 8 years of relevant experience is required.
• Advanced knowledge of complex Digital Signal Processing with the ability to develop complex time domain signal models for use in design support and requirements analysis.
• Experience with the development and coding of system models, algorithms, test vectors and analysis tools in support of analyzing radar requirements and performance.
• Active and transferrable U.S. government issued security clearance is required prior to the start date.

Nice-to-haves

• Master's degree in Engineering, Science, Mathematics or related discipline.
