This position combines research and development in directed energy systems with practical engineering applications in laser weapon engagement modeling and autonomous target tracking systems

Essential Job Responsibilities

Develop and execute simulations for high-energy laser engagement scenarios, including target acquisition, tracking, and kill-chain assessment

Model atmospheric effects (turbulence, thermal blooming) and their impact on beam propagation and engagement effectiveness

Design and implement tracking algorithms including centroid tracking, active contour methods, and machine learning-based detection systems

Conduct vulnerability modeling to analyze time-to-kill metrics, aim-point selection, and power-on-target calculations

Develop simulation tools for beam control, tracking systems, and atmospheric compensation strategies

Analyze complex engagement scenarios across diverse conditions including variable backgrounds, clutter, and changing trajectories

Generate technical reports and present findings on system performance and effectiveness

Script and automate batch simulations to systematically evaluate engagement parameters
