We run large-scale modeling and simulation campaigns across all warfighting domains and the full kill chain, against named threats, in operationally relevant scenarios, at the speed engineering, operational, and customer teams actually need. Every CHAOS engineering trade, pursuit, and customer engagement is anchored in rigorous, physics-based, tactically relevant, and statistically valid analysis, and we're scaling the function to meet that bar across a growing product portfolio.</p> <p data-renderer-start-pos="575" data-local-id="ffe9187256c8"><strong data-renderer-mark="true">About the Role:</strong> On the Mission Engineering team at CHAOS, you will design, develop, execute, analyze, and validate models and simulations to deliver operational analysis and system performance assessment across defense, national security, and commercial programs. You will have freedom to move rapidly and use your expertise to apply rigorous statistical methods to analyze simulation outcomes, quantify system effectiveness, and communicate actionable insights to technical teams, leadership, and customers. Your work will directly inform critical decisions around sensor performance, mission planning, weapon effectiveness, and platform capability evaluation.</p> <p data-renderer-start-pos="1241" data-local-id="01f1eb11779c">This is a foundational hire.
