In this role, you will perform hardware-in-the-loop (HWIL) simulation engineering, model complex multi-sensor radar data processing networks, and design synthetic test environments. You will play a pivotal role in ensuring that shipboard, shore-based, and expeditionary air traffic management systems seamlessly integrate into current and future Navy architectures.Key ResponsibilitiesHWIL & Simulation Architecture: Design, configure, and maintain hardware-in-the-loop (HWIL) simulation environments to test real-world ATC equipment, including Identification Friend or Foe (IFF), radar processors, and tactical data links.System Modeling: Develop and execute high-fidelity computer simulations to analyze radar propagation, sensor fusion, and airspace integration constraints for both manned and unmanned air combat vehicles.Interface Testing: Program and maintain custom interfaces (drivers, digital and analog signal emulation) to bridge physical tactical hardware with simulated system environments.Verification & Validation (V&V): Formulate M&S test strategies to validate system requirements, identify performance gaps, and mitigate technical obsolescence risks in legacy systems like the AN/SPN radar series.Cross-Functional Collaboration: Coordinate directly with government engineering leads, Integrated Product Teams (IPTs), and configuration managers to transition successful rapid prototypes from laboratory environments to fleet installations.RequirementsEducation: Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a highly related technical field.Experience: 5+ years of engineering experience with a demonstrable background in Modeling & Simulation (M&S) applications.Technical Skills: Proficiency with simulation frameworks and modeling tools (e.g., MATLAB/Simulink, Ansys, or equivalent DoD-standard M&S tools).Strong understanding of hardware interfaces, network protocols (TCP/IP, UDP), serial communication, and military data bus standards (e.g., MIL-STD-1553).Experience with real-time operating systems (RTOS) and embedded system testing environments.Preferred: Knowledge of Naval Air Traffic Control systems, Joint Interoperability standards, or previous experience working within an oLSI framework.Citizenship & Security: Must be a U.S. Citizen.Must be eligible to obtain and maintain a U.S. Secret Security Clearance.","company":"Atcsi","rawCompany":"atcsi","city":"Columbia","state":"MD","isRemote":false,"isActive":false,"createdAt":"2026-09-03T06:50:56.228Z","occupations":[{"code":"15-1299.08","title":"Computer Systems Engineers/Architects","slug":"computer-systems-engineers-architects"},{"code":"17-2072.00","title":"Electronics Engineers, Except Computer","slug":"electronics-engineers-except-computer"},{"code":"17-2011.00","title":"Aerospace Engineers","slug":"aerospace-engineers"}],"industries":[{"code":"541330","title":"Engineering Services","slug":"engineering-services"},{"code":"334511","title":"Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing","slug":"search-detection-navigation-guidance-aeronautical-and-nautical-system-and-instrument-manufacturing"},{"code":"541715","title":"Research and Development in the Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences (except Nanotechnology and Biotechnology)","slug":"research-and-development-in-the-physical-engineering-and-life-sciences-except-nanotechnology-and-biotechnology"}],"jobPosting":{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"JobPosting","title":"Computer Engineer (Modeling & Simulation) ATC Systems","description":"Computer Engineer Modeling & SimulationWe are seeking a highly skilled Computer Engineer with a strong specialization in Modeling & Simulation (M&S) to support NAWCAD WOLF's Air Traffic Control and Landing Systems (ATC&LS) Division based out of Patuxent River, MD.
