Harris Technologies has an opening for a Specialist, Systems Engineering in Modeling, Simulation & Analysis (MS&A) to join our Mission Analysis Group (MAG). This position can be in Palm Bay, FL or Herndon, VA. The selected Specialist will work in a fast‑paced, geographically dispersed team to develop analytic toolsets focused on constructive simulation and experimentation across multi‑domains for a variety of customers, both internal and external.

• Communicate with internal and external parties, including customers and vendors; influence others to accept practices and changes; conduct briefings with senior leaders.
• Coordinate MS&A engineering efforts to integrate system performance and behaviors into operational analysis.
• Design multi‑domain simulation capabilities in AFSIM, MATLAB and/or STK to support MAG technology and mission roadmaps, internal research and development, and programs of record.
• Integrate Government‑off‑the‑Shelf (GOTS) and Customer‑off‑the‑Shelf (COTS) simulations, frameworks, models and analytic toolsets into existing software infrastructure.
• Build and maintain analytic toolsets for each phase of the F2T2EA
  chain using sensor, effects, and communications technologies, including data visualization and Unity‑game engines for operations assessment.
• Document model specifications and establish a repository of simulation capabilities and tools for reuse at multiple classification levels, while maintaining configuration management protocols.
• Support programs and pursuits by creating models, simulations, and analysis products; determine requirements, develop simulation software, troubleshoot existing capabilities, and create software designs and test plans.
• Support requirements development, system verification, and CONOPS development; work with technical leaders and SMEs to ensure modeling, simulation, and analysis capabilities meet operational mission requirements.
• Develop new simulation capabilities and processes for employment; enhance current analytic toolsets.
