Original job description

Job Description BAE Systems Space & Missions Systems is looking for a well-qualified research analyst to perform end-to-end modeling and simulation to evaluate performance of high-energy laser systems and thermo-optical effects on complex defense systems. You will collaborate across multiple government and contracting teams to design, simulate, and report results for critical engineering recommendations. This role combines knowledge of thermal, optical, and atmosphere physics with optimization methods. You will quickly learn and apply information from academic papers, test reports, data sheets, and CAD models to solve challenging and dynamic problems in laser effects.

The Engineering, Science and Analysis (ESA) Strategic Capabilities Unit comprises the technical talent and organizational leadership that enables the successful delivery of high-impact discriminating technologies for our customers’ missions. Our collaborative, cross-functional teams are committed to innovation, integrity, continual learning and solid execution.

What You’ll Do:

Work on challenging problems in teams and individually.
Write, modify, and upgrade functions and scripts in Python and MATLAB.
Write and present technical reports and presentations to team and customers.
Design models, run simulations, automate software, process data, visualize results.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams and customers, contribute to proposals and presentations, and guide technical execution throughout the analysis process.
Develop and perform analysis methods, plans, progress updates and reports.
Build and maintain pre-processing and post-processing tools for modeling and simulation.
Integrate experimental data, sensor outputs, and simulation results into cohesive thermal and system-level assessments.
Operate and improve software tools and methods for greater accuracy and speed.
Analyze and quantify analysis results with statistical rigor, i.e. error propagation, uncertainty quantification, and sensitivity analysis.
Support planning and execution through predictive modeling, scenario evaluation, and post-test data analytics.
Present complex modeling insights to non-technical stakeholders, project managers, and partner teams.
Maintain a regular and predictable work schedule.
Establish and maintain effective working relationships within the department, the Strategic Business Units, Strategic Capabilities Units and the Company. Interact appropriately with others in order to maintain a positive and productive work environment.
Perform other duties as necessary.

On-Site Work Environment: This position requires regular in-person engagement by working on-site five days each normally scheduled week in the primary work location. Travel and local commute between company campuses and other possible non-company locations may be required.

Working Conditions:

Work is performed in an office, laboratory, production floor, or cleanroom, outdoors or remote research environment.
May occasionally work in production work centers where use of protective equipment and gear is required.
May access other facilities in various weather conditions.

Required Education, Experience, & Skills

BS degree or higher in Engineering or a related technical field is required plus 4 or more years related experience.
Each higher-level degree, i.e., Master’s Degree or Ph.D., may substitute for two years of experience. Related technical experience may be considered in lieu of education. Degree must be from a university, college, or school which is accredited by an agency recognized by the US Secretary of Education, US Department of Education.
A current, active TS/SCI security clearance is required.
Experience in software modeling in development in languages such as Python, MATLAB, or C++.
Solid understanding of thermal, optical, laser physics.
Experience with data automation, analysis and visualization.
Experience writing technical communications.

Education, Experience, & Skills

Experience with optimization like non-linear, surrogate models, or machine learning.
Knowledge of design of experiments (DOE) methods, software like Sandia Dakota.
Solid understanding of high-energy laser interactions.
Experience in image processing.

Pay Information Full-Time Salary Range: $88189 - $149922
