Description:Combat Effectiveness Core (CEC) team is building a space combat simulator to model space conflicts. What forces will be needed to win? How can available resources best be allocated? What are the most effective defenses to adversary threats? CEC software simulates a wide range of scenarios, wargaming the actions from both sides of a conflict to help our stakeholders develop strategy, tactics, techniques, and procedures. The team builds on this foundation for our partners by creating Mission Applications spanning Space Domain Awareness, Battle Management Command/Control and Test/Training. We are looking for strong, team-oriented full stack Java/JavaScript software developers, background with orbital mechanics, mathematics, gaming and optimization strategies a plus.

Summary of Key Duties for this position:

• Performance of all phases of software development (user interface and software services) including design, implementation, testing and verification

• Developing services that model orbital mechanics (propagation, orbit determination, in-view calculations, etc.)

• Developing services that solve optimization problems (dynamic programming, non-linear optimization, over-constrained planning, etc. )

• Detailed analysis and validation that algorithms are physically accurate and satisfy customers' mission

• Work collaboratively in small, fast paced agile teams, focused on product delivery to program customers

You will be working side by side with extraordinarily talented and experienced engineers, while having the opportunity to lead and mentor less experienced individuals on the team.
