Staff Engineer Systems - Global Algorithm Engineer (25-235)

Relocation Assistance is not available for this position, and this role is on-site with no remote options.
Position Overview:
The Command and Control, Battle Management, and Communications (C2BMC) program integrates the Missile Defense System. It serves as a crucial operational system that enables the U.S. president, secretary of defense, and combatant commanders at strategic, regional, and operational levels to systematically plan ballistic missile defense operations, observe the battle as it develops collectively, and dynamically manage designated networked sensors and weapon systems to achieve global and regional mission objectives. C2BMC supports a layered missile defense capability that facilitates an optimized response to threats of all ranges in all phases of flight. Additionally, C2BMC acts as a force multiplier both globally and regionally. The networks integrate and synchronize autonomous sensors and weapon systems to enhance performance. Furthermore, C2BMC is essential to all system ground and flight tests, which verify and exercise the capabilities of all current and future missile defense systems.
