Mav6 is seeking a Senior Scientist to support the Technical Analysis Group (TAG). The TAG uses modeling and simulation tools to conduct analyses of technologies developed to combat Improvised Explosive Devices (IED). The Senior Scientist must have a strong physics based understanding of a broad range of technologies relevant to counter IED operations, including detection, imaging, communication, electronic warfare, ISR, and other systems. A solid understanding of computational and analytical methods is required along with strong software engineering skills to assist in both modeling and programming. Physics-based simulations will support military RD activities related to technology analysis and evaluation, Concept of Operations (CONOP) analysis, asymmetric threat modeling, and multi-source data visualization, processing, and fusion. The Senior Scientist is expected to have strong analytical, research, and leadership abilities and be able to execute project plans that provide solutions to problems assigned to the TAG. The Senior Scientist will provide expert advice, assistance, and guidance to the TAG and to clients.
