Mission Analysis Engineer – Aerospace Systems; TS​/SCI

Vantor is forging the new frontier of spatial intelligence, helping decision makers and operators navigate what's happening now and shape what's coming next. Vantor is a place for problem solvers, changemakers, and go-getters-where people are working together to help our customers see the world differently, and in doing so, be seen differently. Come be part of a mission, not just a job, where you can:
Shape your own future, build the next big thing, and change the world.

To be eligible for this position, you must be a U.S. Citizen. This position requires an active U.S. Government security clearance, applicants who do not currently hold the required clearance will not be eligible for consideration. Employment for cleared roles is contingent upon verification of clearance status. Export Control/ITAR:
Certain roles may be subject to U.S. export control laws, requiring U.S. person status as defined by 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3). Please review the job details below. This position requires US citizenship and an active TS/SCI clearance, or TS/SCI eligibility, are mandatory for consideration.

• Model complex aerospace missions.
• Develop, modify, and run high-fidelity simulations of satellites, aircraft, sensors, and ISR systems to understand mission and system performance.
• Explore the trades that matter. Compare architectures, technologies, operating concepts, and system configurations to identify performance drivers, limitations, risks, and opportunities.
• Turn mission concepts into simulations. Build realistic operational scenarios that capture customer objectives, mission constraints, environments, and system behavior.
• Build better ways to solve problems. Create tools, scripts, automation, visualizations, and new simulation capabilities that make analyses faster, deeper, and more repeatable.
• Find the story in the data. Work with large simulation datasets to uncover trends, explain system behavior, and translate technical results into meaningful conclusions.
• Ensure the analysis holds up. Evaluate model assumptions, inputs, outputs, and analytical methods through thoughtful QA/QC and engineering judgment.
• Communicate findings, trade-offs, and recommendations to engineers, program leaders, senior decision-makers, and customers.

• US Citizenship Required with an active or current TS/SCI clearance or eligibility.
• Bachelor’s degree from an accredited college/university, in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Applied Mathematics, Physics, or Computer Science.
• Willing to work on-site in a classified facility.

• Advanced degree in engineering, physics, applied mathematics, computer science, or a related technical field, or equivalent relevant experience.
• A minimum of 2 years industry experience.
• Knowledge or experience in one or more aerospace domains such as astrodynamics, remote sensing, spacecraft or aircraft systems, sensor performance, aerospace operations, mission engineering, or complex systems integration.
• Experience developing, implementing, or evaluating mathematical models, algorithms, simulations, or other quantitative engineering methods.
• Experience using Python or similar programming/scripting tools to automate analyses, manipulate data, develop engineering tools, or extend modeling and simulation capabilities.
• Ability to work through open-ended technical problems, evaluate assumptions and risks, and turn analytical results into defensible conclusions and recommendations.
• Experience working with customers or multidisciplinary teams to understand mission needs, communicate technical findings, and develop practical solutions.
• Ability to communicate complex technical concepts clearly to audiences ranging from fellow engineers…
