At Raytheon, the foundation of everything we do is rooted in our values and a higher calling – to help our nation and allies defend freedoms and deter aggression. We bring the strength of more than 100 years of experience and renowned engineering expertise to meet the needs of today’s mission and stay ahead of tomorrow’s threat. Our team solves tough, meaningful problems that create a safer, more secure world.

• The Integrated Solutions Modeling and Architecture (ISMA) directorate is composed of an energetic multi-disciplinary team of over 300 engineers working collaboratively with internal and external customers and programs to provide mission level modeling & simulation of sensing & effects capabilities from seabed to space, multi-level operation analysis, integrated system of system architectures and operations research.

• We are in the front end of the business pushing the boundaries of innovation and creativity to establish next-generation mission solutions from system-level up to campaign-level.

What You Will Do

• As an Sr. Modeling & Simulation (M&S) Engineer, you will be part of a diverse team of systems engineers dedicated to delivering best-in-class Raytheon products for the warfighter through modeling, simulation, and analysis. 

• Your work will help demonstrate mission effectiveness of systems and system-of-systems operating in complex threat environments. 

• On this team, you will be responsible for developing mission simulations, virtual prototypes, and system emulators that represent a variety of mission technologies including sensors, effectors, communications, command and control, and more. 

• This will include integrating live-virtual-constructive (LVC) simulations with other simulations, custom software, commercial-off-the-shelf software (COTS), government furnished models, hardware, and user interfaces.

• Developing and integrating new capabilities into existing simulation models.

• Running our simulation environments and generating analysis data for evaluation.

• Working with a team lead to document design approaches and implement them.

• Working with a team lead to define and execute analysis plans.

• Participating in technical reviews with internal and external customers.

What You Will Learn

• In this organization you will be exposed to a variety of mission systems development efforts under the supervision and guidance of subject matter experts.  You will learn how to apply LVC concepts to develop and test mission systems under real world conditions. 

• You will also see how modeling and simulation is applied across the analysis pyramid to best inform our programs and identify innovative integrated solutions along the way.

Qualifications You Must Have

• Typically requires a BS Degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics, or related STEM Degree. This position requires a minimum of 5 years of relevant engineering work experience OR an advanced degree in STEM and 3 years of Engineering experience.

• Experience with integrating distributed Live-Virtual-Constructive (LVC) simulation components. Experience in developing software applications, including Software with natively compiled languages (eg:  C/C++), Object-oriented programming design (OOP / OOD), Integrating 3rd party software libraries and APIs into software tools.

• Experience developing software in Windows and Linux Environments, Ability to develop Concept and Data Visualizations, Experience using scripting languages (eg:  Python, Perl) to automate tasks.

• Experience in configuration management tools (GIT, Subversion) and practices.

• Active and transferable U.S. government issued Secret security clearance is required prior to start date. U.S. citizenship is required, as only U.S. citizens are eligible for a security clearance

Qualifications We Prefer

• Experience with 3-Dimensional geometry and modern imaging/visualization principles, including: Modern shader-based OpenGL pipeline

• Experience in 3D Model Development using tools like Unity, Unreal, 3D Studio Max, Creator.

• Experience with scientific computing software (eg: MATLAB) to evaluate analysis data, Experience in software or system modeling practices (eg:  UML, SysML, DoDAF), Experience with simulation tools an
