Description

Davidson has distinguished itself in the aerospace and missile defense industry with an outstanding reputation for excellence. Specifically, we're recognized for hiring noted experts, experienced engineers and scientists dedicated to designing and delivering advanced, intelligent technology solutions in defense of our Nation. Davidson Technologies Inc. is seeking a Jr. to Mid Systems Engineer - Mission Support Threat Engineer in Colorado Springs, Colorado The systems engineer/mission support threat engineer role serves as a missile threats specialist, threats model requirements developer, and a verifier and validator of threat representations across the kinematic, RF, and IR signatures domains. This Systems Engineering specialized position will be responsible for capturing and documenting requirements as they pertain to the development of Missiles' kinematic, RF, and IR signatures models. The systems engineer/mission support threat engineer will be involved in direct discussions and collaborations with our customers, threat stakeholders, intelligence analysts, and fellow engineers to best capture the requirements for developing and delivering accurate and relevant threat models. Will work with little to no direct supervision, work as an integral member of a product delivery team,and meet time-critical delivery schedules. Essential Functions: Gain experience with threat model phenomenology with focus on components of missile systems trajectories and signatures. Research into RCS and IR signature model development requirements. Understand stakeholders' requirements and ensure quality production of deliverables. Actively work with the team to ensure automation and tools improvements are coordinated - aiming to attain utmost efficiency and meet Leadership objectives. Work on defined schedule to timely support MDA Ground Test Modeling and Simulation events. Work in close coordination with Missile Modeling Engineers and Production Engineers to ensure model requirements are met and Verification and Validation (V&V) confirms models' accuracy and reliability. Seeking candidates who find satisfaction in working on challenging and diverse assignments in collaborative settings across all levels. Basic Qualifications for a Jr. Systems Engineer (Level 1): Bachelor's Degree in a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics) discipline from an accredited university and 2 years of related work experience, or a Master's Degree in STEM and 0-2 years of related work experience Experience with Model Base Systems Engineering (MBSE); ideally with CAMEO or similar tool experience Familiarity with the systems engineering process, including the Systems Engineering "V" Experience with requirements traceability Modeling, simulation, and automation experience Familiarity with flight characteristics, motion, and performance of missile systems Familiarity in the domain of RCS and IR signature modeling practices Familiarity with hard body heating of objects and their corresponding signatures representation Must be self-motivated and able to work in a dynamic team environment Ability and willingness to travel up to 10% to support business needs Must have a current, active, in-scope DoD Secret Clearance at the time of application, which is required to start; with ability to obtain and maintain a DoD Top Secret clearance with access to SCI Basic Qualifications for a Principal Systems Engineer (level 2): Bachelor's Degree in a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics) discipline from an accredited university and 5 years of related work experience, or a Master's Degree in STEM and 3 years of related work experience, or a PhD in STEM with 1 year of related work experience Practical experience with Model Base Systems Engineering (MBSE); ideally with CAMEO or similar tool experience Knowledge and experience with the systems engineering process, including the Systems Engineering "V" Experience with requirements development and traceability Modeling, simulation, and automation experience Previous experience modeling and simulating signature profiles and responses in the IR signature and RCS domains Experience with flight characteristics, motion, and performance of missile systems Familiarity with hard body heating of objects and their corresponding signatures representation Must be self-motivated and able to work in a dynamic team environment Ability and willingness to travel up to 10% to support business needs Must have a current, active, in-scope DoD Secret Clearance at the time of application, which is required to start; with ability to obtain and maintain a DoD Top Secret clearance with access to SCI Preferred Qualifications: Strong CAMEO or similar tool experience Strong systems engineering background Strong background with missile system models, atmospheric dynamics, and performance Mastery of engineering modeling principles behind body motion, trajectory analysis, counter measures, debris, and signature modeling Familiarity with Optical Signatures Code (OSC) Strong knowledge of the flight characteristics, motion, atmospheric dynamics, and performance of missiles Practical experience with MBSE theory and tools Experience in Agile software development methodologies, including Scrum and Kanban Clearance: Must have a current, active, in-scope DoD Secret Clearance at the time of application, which is required to start; with ability to obtain and maintain a DoD Top Secret clearance with access to SCI
