The Systems Engineering Division (SED) provides unmatched experience in systems engineering to the U.S. government and to numerous public and private agencies, universities, nonprofit organizations, consortia, and commercial companies involved in the advanced application of space technology. From systems architecture development to system analysis and optimization, astrodynamics, orbital debris, navigation, failure analysis, mission assurance, cost and schedule assessment, and economic market analysis, SED exploits an incredibly broad array of engineering and business disciplines against a diverse and dynamic portfolio of programs and national challenges. The Aerospace Corporation is seeking geopositioning system analysts to design and implement modeling, simulation, and analysis capabilities to baseline current and next generation signals intelligence (SIGINT) and geospatial intelligence (GEOINT) architectures. NGSD serves as a center of excellence in the development and advancement of geolocation and signal processing technologies for the national space enterprise. Specific areas of interest include the development, test, and deployment of geopositioning architectures that exploit conventional and innovative principles of time difference of arrival (TDOA), frequency difference of arrival (FDOA), angle of arrival (AOA), time of arrival (TOA), synthetic aperture radar (SAR), and electro-optical imagery. The Aerospace Corporation is an open environment structured to foster multi-disciplinary relationships and apply the academic and industry expertise of our engineers, subject matter experts and key stakeholders to solve complex problems across a diverse portfolio of space programs. What you\'ll be doing: Advisekey stakeholders and government customers by performing a range of modeling, simulation, and analysis in department focus areas such as geolocation, signal processing, orbit determination, and trajectory analysis. Conduct research to advance PNT technologies for national security space and civil/commercial space communities. Plan and conducttechnical deep dives, trade studies, and assessments in teams with multi-disciplinary technical leaders, AerospaceProgram Office personnel, and external customers including defense and civil agencies, such as the U.S. Space Force, the National Reconnaissance Office, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, Fe eral Aviation Administration, National Nuclear Security Administration, and others. Develop and present timely and technically accurate briefings and reports that clearly communicate analysis results and provide recommended solutions, supporting critical decisions in collaboration with technical leads, management, and customers. Expand the department\'s analysis capabilities by advancing the evolution of analysis tools/workflows and by mentoring/training new analysts Employ a wide range of mathematical and statistical techniques and theories to analyze multiple signal sources, associate signals from a single source collected by more than one receiver, and geolocate the source. Participate in the end-to-end mission data processing development cycle Interacting directly with stakeholders including program office and government customers supporting technical interchange meetings and design reviews and assessing contractor designs and analyses. Travel as necessary to support customer efforts What you need to be successful (minimum requirements): Bachelor\'s degree in engineering, science, mathematics, or other related disciplines from an accredited school Three to five years of progressively responsible professional or academic post-graduate engineering/scientific...
