Systems Engineer; M&S Analysis and Algorithms

deci

Bel Research has an immediate opening for a Systems Engineer (M&S Analysis and Algorithms) in HSV, AL.

Become a part of something IMPACT-ful! Ground Missile Defense (GMD) is the heart of the Missile Defense System and a key element of our nation's defense against ballistic missile attacks.

The GMD Weapon System (GWS) processes data from multiple sensors to identify and characterize the inbound ballistic missile threat, plans the best defensive solution, and launches the intercepting missiles to negate the threat.

As a member of an Agile Scrum team performing Algorithm development and Analysis for the GMD Weapon System (GWS) Fire Control (GFC) product, you will be part of the team that develops new algorithms, improves old algorithms, and assesses the effectiveness and performance of them in the context of the GFC software (currently ~1.5 million lines of code) that controls the missile defense system that protects the United States from intercontinental ballistic missile attack.

The selected Systems Engineer will work in a collaborative environment to understand, implement, and assess new capabilities and algorithms. These are mathematics and physics based complex solutions that are critical to the performance of Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS) mission.

Bachelor's Degree in a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering or Math) discipline preferred, from an accredited university

• Active Secret Clearance (with the ability to acquire and maintain a TS level clearance)
• 3 Years of relevant experience with Bachelor's degree in a Science, Technology, Engineering or Math (STEM) discipline
• Demonstrated experience in one or more of the following areas: data analysis, performance analysis, and physics/Mathematics-based algorithm development
• Ability to communicate technical information clearly to both technical and non-technical personnel
• High proficiency in technical problem solving
• Knowledge of MATLAB, Python or similar engineering tools used in prototyping complex algorithms
• Proven track record of successfully integrating problem solutions into a larger system
• Extensive background in at least one of the following:
  Ballistic Missile Defense, midcourse missile defense, battle management, threat processing, weapon target assignment, target object map population
• Capable of performing assigned tasks with very little or no direction
• Well-developed skills in critical thinking and paying attention to detail
• Extensive background in mathematics and physics
• Must be able to support an in-person / closed-area work environment

• Current/Active Top Secret Clearance
• Extensive background in Ballistic Missile Defense, midcourse missile defense, battle management, threat state processing, weapon target assignment
• Recent and extensive experience developing analysis tools in MATLAB and PYTHON
• High comfort level with the ADA programming language
• Experience with the MDA GMD program
• Experience with algorithm development

Applicant selected must have an active Secret security clearance. Must be a U.S. Citizen
