Requires deep missile or high-speed flight GNC expertise, engineering leadership, and an active Secret clearance.

Lead development of high-fidelity 6-DOF flight and physics simulations for missile flight, guidance, navigation, and control validation. Build real-time physics integrations, Monte Carlo and hardware-in-the-loop testing, closed-loop infrastructure, sensor models, scenario tools, visualization, and performance-analysis systems. Ensure simulation fidelity, determinism, and performance across varied operating conditions while collaborating with flight software, autonomy, and hardware teams.

Lead development of high-fidelity six-degree-of-freedom flight and physics simulations for missile guidance, navigation, and control validation. Build real-time physics, sensor emulation, Monte Carlo, hardware-in-the-loop, and closed-loop testing infrastructure. Develop scenario authoring, visualization, and performance-analysis tools while ensuring simulation fidelity, performance, and determinism. Collaborate with flight software, autonomy, and hardware teams to validate systems against real-world constraints.

Manage full-cycle recruiting for technical roles across software, hardware, design, electrical, mechanical, and aerospace engineering. Partner with hiring managers, source and screen candidates, coordinate interviews, maintain ATS records, build talent pipelines, support offers and onboarding, and report on recruiting metrics. The role requires strong relationship-building, technical talent evaluation, recruiting data analysis, and the ability to work independently in a fast-paced environment.

Design and develop mission-critical real-time flight software for aerospace and defense systems. Responsibilities include embedded software architecture, guidance and navigation integration, sensor and actuator interfaces, processor communications, hardware- and software-in-the-loop testing, telemetry, health monitoring, flight-test support, and hardware debugging across microcontrollers and Linux flight computers.

Own manufacturing processes from prototype through full-rate production. Develop workflows, tooling, fixtures, assembly documentation, inspection plans, testing protocols, SPC metrics, and traceability systems. Participate in hands-on builds, lead root cause analyses and CAPAs, apply DFM/DFA principles, and collaborate with design engineers, technicians, contract manufacturers, and quality teams to improve reliability, efficiency, and production scalability in a mission-critical aerospace and defense environment.

The Human Resources Generalist supports the full employee lifecycle, including onboarding, I-9 verification, background checks, benefits enrollment, workers’ compensation claims, offboarding, and employee records. The role partners with leaders on employee relations, performance management, compensation, workforce planning, policy development, HR communications, compliance, and organizational initiatives. It also analyzes HR metrics, maintains confidential HRIS data, and supports diversity and inclusion programs.
