Key Responsibilities
Scientific & Engineering Software Integration: Develop, maintain, and modernize software algorithms that convert complex scientific data into physics-based models.
Effects-Based Simulation Support: Build backend services and cloud-native data pipelines to support large-scale effects-based simulations for WMD and hardened facility characterization.
Workflow Automation & ETL: Architect and maintain reliable ETL data flows to ingest massive datasets from varied scientific, engineering, and intelligence formats.
Cross-Domain Data Transfer: Implement, secure, and maintain cross-domain transfer solutions to safely move critical data across unclassified and classified networks.
Cross-Discipline Collaboration: Work hand-in-hand with scientists, physicists, hardware engineers, and defense analysts to translate vague, highly complex requirements into functional, user-friendly software prototypes.
