- Relevant experience in missile or flight-vehicle modeling and simulation, flight dynamics, GNC , trajectory analysis, weapon-system performance, or a closely related field
- Hands-on experience developing, integrating, or using 3- DOF or 6- DOF dynamic simulations
- Strong fundamentals in flight mechanics, rigid-body dynamics, coordinate systems and transformations, numerical integration, control or estimation concepts, and dynamic-system analysis
- Strong programming ability in at least one scientific or analytical environment such as MATLAB , Python, or C++
- Experience performing Monte Carlo analysis, error-budget analysis, sensitivity analysis, robustness analysis, uncertainty quantification, or design of experiments
- Experience validating or correlating dynamic models against analytical references, subsystem-test data, laboratory data, ground-test data, telemetry, flight-test data, range data, or other authoritative sources
