Overview
We are searching for a senior technical leader to guide and oversee classified modeling, simulation, and analysis efforts focused on foreign threat systems. This role is intended for someone who brings deep technical credibility and can speak fluently to the engineering, modeling, and analysis work, while leading teams that execute the detailed development and simulation activities.
The successful candidate will act as the technical authority and program lead, shaping technical direction, reviewing and validating analytical approaches, and communicating complex concepts to government stakeholders. While this role does not require hands‑on coding or model development, it does require a strong understanding of modeling and simulation techniques, RF and sensor systems, EW concepts, and systems engineering principles to effectively guide teams and make informed technical decisions.
Responsibilities
- Serve as the technical lead and senior authority for classified modeling, simulation, and analysis efforts
- Guide teams performing analysis of foreign threat radars, RF/IR sensors, communications systems, EW capabilities, and kinetic weapon systems
- Review, assess, and validate technical approaches, assumptions, results, and risks produced by engineering teams
- Lead technical planning and strategy across system lifecycles, including requirements interpretation, integration, test, validation, and sustainment
- Act as senior program manager for large, complex efforts, balancing technical execution, schedule, risk, and performance
- Engage directly with government stakeholders to discuss technical concepts, results, risks, and future capability needs
- Drive growth of modeling and simulation capabilities, including identification of modernization opportunities such as AI/ML integration
- Supervise first‑level managers and support the development of engineering and software talent
Qualifications
- 10+ years of experience in engineering‑based modeling, simulation, and analysis, including software‑driven technical environments
- 5+ years of experience with radar, signal processing, or RF‑focused modeling and simulation efforts
- 5+ years leading complex technical programs or teams within DoD or government environments
- Prior experience serving as a technical director, chief engineer, or senior technical lead responsible for technical direction and decision‑making
- Ability to clearly communicate complex technical concepts without being hands‑on in day‑to‑day development
- Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field
- Active Top Secret security clearance
Preferred
- Experience supporting business development or capture activities
- Strong executive‑level communication skills with technical depth
- Master’s degree in Engineering, Systems Engineering, or Management
