Junior Systems Architecture Analyst (ANALYST II)

Join our Fort Belvoir team analyzing future missile defense architectures and concepts for a government missile defense program. You will run simulation tools, assess capability gaps against current and future threats, and help build the modeling and simulation tools behind architecture assessments.

What You Will Do

• Measure today’s and tomorrow’s threats against missile defense capability, find the gaps, and design architecture options that close them or raise performance

• Help build analysis plans, run missile defense simulation tools, post-process and assess results, and prepare architecture briefs and reports

• Tailor modeling and simulation (M&S) tools to each analysis plan

• 3+ years on missile defense or other large, complex DoD programs

• Basic understanding of the current missile defense architecture and future concepts

• Some experience modeling, assessing and evaluating future missile defense architectures

• Able to interpret results and present findings clearly

• Clear written and verbal communication and strong collaboration

• Strong time management and prioritization

• Bachelor’s degree

• Active Secret clearance with the ability to obtain TS/SCI

• Onsite in Fort Belvoir, VA
