M&S Engineer

As a M&S Engineer with MTSI you will utilize your modeling and simulation experience in systems, subsystem, and component models for aerospace applications. This position is located in the Dayton, OH area.

• Development of models, algorithms and associated simulation software for system types and performing trade‑space analysis to assess and verify system characteristics and capabilities.
• Documentation of all software and hardware characteristics and changes to existing and new simulation environments; test architecture design and test planning; experimental design and test execution; data collection and analysis; and report generation.
• Integration of models into complex simulation architectures, including engagement‑level simulations, theater‑level simulations, hardware‑in‑the‑loop architectures.

• Candidate must have 10-20 years of experience in the use of modeling and simulation software development frameworks.
• Experience with at least one programming/software development language (MATLAB/Simulink, C, C++, Python).
• Basic understanding of aerospace system functions and dynamics, including detailed sub‑system models and flight dynamics models.
• Demonstrated ability to lead engineering teams, solve difficult hardware and software integration challenges, and manage small projects. Must be a motivated self‑starter able to work independently and in a collaborative team environment, often with minimal guidance and within rigid timelines.
• Ability to interact with data suppliers, work well with coworkers and interface with customers at disparate locations.
• Outstanding skills in communicating complex technical issues and in providing comprehensive written, oral and/or digital products (including document organization and technical writing).
• Good analytic skills and the ability to apply these skills in a multi‑tasking environment where more than one project may require participation at a given time.
• Familiarity with contractor and government roles in applying intelligence analysis to aerospace system development and acquisition.
• Located in or willing to relocate to the Dayton, Ohio area.

• Professional training in modeling and simulation as related to space, missile and/or aerodynamic system performance.
• Familiarity with the Department of Defense (DoD) and the United States Intelligence Community (IC).
• Understanding of system component integration and the ability to model entire systems or individual components, such as sensors, GNC, and propulsion, to varying levels of detail.
• Specific experience developing mathematical models of aerospace vehicle guidance navigation, and control components and algorithms.
• Specific experience developing mathematical models of aerospace vehicle sensors spanning the electromagnetic spectrum.

• B.S. degree in an engineering or physics discipline. (Required)
• Master's degree in an engineering or physics discipline. (Desired)

• Current Secret Clearance required.
• TOP SECRET clearance with eligibility for Sensitive Compartmentalized Information (SCI) desired.
• U.S. Citizenship required.

• Starting PTO accrual of 20 days PTO/year + 10 holidays/year.
• Flexible schedules.
• 6% 401k match with immediate vesting up to $9k annually.
• Semi‑annual bonus eligibility (July and December).
• Company funded Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) - a separate qualified retirement account.
• Up to $10,000 in annual educational reimbursement.
• Other company funded benefits, like life and disability insurance.
• Optional zero deductible Blue Cross/Blue Shield health insurance plan.
