Systems Integration Engineer
Company Name:
Applied Physics Laboratory
## Position Description
Introduction:
The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (APL), a national leader in scientific research and development, located midway between Baltimore and Washington, DC is seeking a Systems Integration Engineer.
Job
Summary: Develop and evaluate requirements and design for netted sensor and combat systems from Integrated Fire Control systems engineering and operational points of view.
Duties (Listed in order of importance with the estimated amount of time spent at each task):
1. Perform kill chain end-to-end performance analysis at need-dependent levels of fidelity to assess integrated fire control architecture variants, i.e., impact of changes to sensor, network, and shooter combinations. (50%)
2. Understand and analyze various aspects of combat and weapon system functionality as related to integration with networks providing IFC-capable sensor data. (15%)
3. Understand and analyze multi-faceted sensor (individual and netted ) performance metrics as related to the needs of the combat and weapon systems. (15%)
4. Use and improve existing IFC M&S; analysis capabilities and develop new ones as warranted for the specific mission (10%)
5. Formally document concepts, analyses results, system requirements as needed. Present new concepts, results, etc to individual and, at times, multiple government sponsors for IFC element systems and system of systems. (10%)
Note: This job summary and listing of duties is for the purpose of describing the position and its essential functions at time of hire and may change over time.
## Qualifications
Required Qualifications: BS in EE, Mathematics, Physics, or comparable technical field with at least 3 years of experience. Strong analytical and logical skills and attention to detail.
