Computational Fluid Dynamics Engineer
OverviewSystems Planning and Analysis, Inc.
(SPA) is a well-established and progressive defense contracting company in the DC Metro area.
We are a professional services firm established in 1972 that has a long-standing reputation for unrivaled technical and analytical support to some of the top decision makers in the Federal Sector.
We do state of the art work and have a cadre of outstanding professionals on our team.
SPA assists the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) in developing leading edge technologies to counter WMD in support of CCMDs and transitioning these technologies to services and SOCOM.
SPA provides expertise across the full range of chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear and high-yield explosives (CBRNE) WMD, Counter Improvised Threat and Countering Threat Network technologies to support understanding, detection, identification, characterization, denial, control, disabling, defeating, disposing, safeguarding the force, managing consequences, and test and evaluation in support of military and civilian operations.
#CJ #IN123 ResponsibilitiesThe successful Counter WMD Engineer serves as the technical expert in physics-based modeling and simulation approaches for weapon systems and effects involved with counter WMD technologies.
Serves as an independent subject matter expert to specify, coordinate, analyze, and compare high-fidelity simulations from multiple performers.
Integrates and coordinates work within the department and other outside agencies.
Applies technical expertise directly to work efforts and identifies potential problems and evaluates compensatory system designs using quantitative methods and scientific analyses to predict and measure outcomes and consequences.
Supports across multiple planning tool and weapons effects efforts.
You will perform independent review and assessment of the HPC and engineering codes under development by the team to support weapons effects modeling and next generation weapons concepts.
Qualifications MS (PhD Preferred) in engineering, physics or computational mechanics with 5 yrs experience in DoD Physics-based modeling approaches Ability to understand uncertainty quantification and the assumptions, limitations and errors inherent in high-fidelity computational fluid dynamic (CFD) and computational structural dynamic (CSD) codes and their effects on CBRN agent defeat or weapon target interaction simulations.
Ability to specify and direct high-fidelity simulation efforts and review, summarize, and compare the results.
Experience visualizing results from high-fidelity simulations in programs like VisIt or ParaView.
Experience with modeling and/or testing of highly transient weapons effects or agent defeat phenomenology.
Ability to review and stay current on state-of-the-art high-fidelity modeling approaches.
Ability to understand/interpret data from advanced diagnostics.
Experience performing validation and verification of high-fidelity CFD/CSD codes as well as fast-running engineering models.
Current TS Clearance with SCI Eligibility, and the ability to maintain bothDesired Qualifications Scripting and/or programming abilities.
Familiarity with DoD High-Performance Computing (HPC) platforms.
Experience with Machine Learning (ML) based modeling approaches.
.
Estimated Salary: $20 to $28 per hour based on qualifications.
