## Description

This role supports the development, integration, and execution of high-fidelity simulations to evaluate end-to-end missile defense mission effectiveness. Engineers will analyze sensor-to-shooter engagement chains, threat kinematics, interceptor performance, and fire control architectures to support data-driven defense system modernization and investment decisions., * Design, develop, code, and test high-fidelity mathematical models and simulations of IAMD systems, including sensors, interceptors, and threat kinematics.

 * Develop and integrate C++ simulation models into complex mission engineering and missile defense architectures.
 * Integrate system models into real-time Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL), Software-in-the-Loop (SIL), and non-real-time constructive simulation environments.
 * Manage simulation timing, model data exchange, and data collection pipelines to support integrated system performance analysis.
 * Develop automated analysis tools and scripts to process large simulation datasets, conduct sensitivity analyses, and evaluate mission effectiveness.
 * Perform trade-space analyses of sensor-to-shooter engagement chains, fire control closures, weapon flyouts, and interceptor lethality.
 * Evaluate Integrated Air and Missile Defense architectures under varying operational scenarios to quantify end-to-end system performance.
 * Translate mission architectures and operational scenarios into quantitative simulation results supporting defense system investment and modernization decisions.
