Warfighter Research & Systems Analyst

As a Warfighter Research & Systems Analyst, you will be a key team member with a background as an Operations Research and Systems Analyst (ORSA), data scientist, or wargamer, possibly with an operational military background. You will use your understanding of tactical wargaming and simulation to create scenarios, develop models, and support analysis to demonstrate the value of Anduril’s systems. Modeling, Simulation, and Analysis (MS&A) will often complement demonstration events that together leave no doubt that Anduril offers real (not PowerPoint) warfighter capability.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Conduct joint and combined tactical (engagement-level and mission-level) analysis. Employ operations research, systems analysis, and wargaming to develop methodologies for analysis.
• Leverage high-end models and simulations, including Anduril’s Lattice Mission Simulation and the Advanced Framework for Simulation, Integration and Modeling (AFSIM), to conduct studies.
• Perform data analysis and utilize computer models to devise solutions for intricate challenges, applying the principles of scientific inquiry and advanced analytics.
• Design, execute, and analyze tactical-level wargames to assess autonomous system capabilities and refine tactics .
• Develop physics-based models and relevant operational scenarios for wargaming exercises, with an emphasis on modeling red and blue force systems and tactics .
• Create and drive simulated entities during live play as a white cell or red cell operator to ensure realistic and challenging wargame execution.
• Assess, decompose, and solve complex problems, conveying complex information and effectively communicating results to internal and external stakeholders.
• Collaborate with engineering and business development teams to demonstrate Anduril’s capabilities and value proposition through rigorous, data-driven analysis., To ensure your safety and help you navigate your job search with confidence, please keep the following critical points in mind:
