IR Plume Modeling and Simulation Engineer

The SWDC Threat Products and Services organization is responsible for the development and delivery of high fidelity threat data products in support of the Missile Defense Agency’s (MDA’s) ground test event simulations.

The IR Plume Modeling and Simulation Engineer role will help develop, analyze and QC IR plume models, produce IR plume signatures, and be responsible for the verification and validation of signatures.  

This position requires a detail-oriented mid-level engineer responsible for understanding infrared (IR) Plume models, adjusting models to work within the TMC’s generation framework, understanding and verifying results, and providing documentation required for running threat data in Ground Test architectures.  

Essential Functions:

• Understanding of Rocket Exhaust IR plume phenomenology, as well as, modeling and simulation methods and processes.  
• Effectively communicate requirements and processes to fellow...
