Camgian is seeking an experienced Systems Engineer to lead the integration of modeling and simulation (M&S) capabilities across Camgian’s product development lifecycle. This role is first and foremost a systems engineering position, with responsibility for translating mission needs into system architectures, requirements, interfaces, verification approaches, and model-based engineering artifacts. The successful candidate will also bring substantial professional experience in modeling and simulation, including the development and integration of realistic physics-based models, synthetic operational environments, and simulation-based test and evaluation. The position will work across software, AI/ML, systems engineering, test, and program teams to reduce technical risk, improve development velocity, and provide credible mission-level evaluation of Camgian capabilities.
