Warfighter Research & Systems Analyst

AI summary of the role

This role is part of a new Modeling, Simulation, & Analysis (MS&A) team at Anduril, focused on building and scaling tools that visualize real-world and simulated data to evaluate mission concepts and demonstrate warfighter capability.

What you’ll do

  • Conduct joint and combined tactical (engagement-level and mission-level) analysis using operations research, systems analysis, and wargaming.
  • Leverage high-end models and simulations, including Lattice Mission Simulation and AFSIM, to conduct studies.
  • Design, execute, and analyze tactical-level wargames to assess autonomous system capabilities and refine tactics.
  • Develop physics-based models and operational scenarios for wargaming, emphasizing red and blue force systems and tactics.

What you’ll bring

  • Active U.S. Secret security clearance (and ability to maintain).
  • 5+ years of experience in Operations Research, Systems Analysis (ORSA), or related discipline.
  • Experience with tactical experiment and wargaming design, including scenario development and trade-space analysis.
  • Experience with DoD M&S tools (e.g., AFSIM, Brawler, Suppressor, ESAMS, Command PE).
