Epsilon C5I (www.epsilonsystems.com/c5i), a division of Epsilon Systems Solutions, is a 100 percent employee-owned company founded in 1998 with more than 20 locations serving the Department of Defense, Department of Energy, Department of Homeland Security, non-profit and commercial customers.
The Dayton division has recently been named as one of only five prime awardees for the 10-year, $4.7 billion NOVASTAR contract supporting the National Air and Space Intelligence Center (NASIC), WPAFB, Ohio.
The EO/IR Modeling and Simulation Engineer/Scientist will conduct in-depth electro-optical (EO) and infrared (IR) modeling and simulation of targets of interest to support Department of Defense customers. The selected candidate will perform signature production in accordance with established processes and techniques to analyze data, generate predicted signatures, document and disseminate results at the National Air and Space Intelligence Center (NASIC) at WPAFB, Ohio. Using signature modeling techniques and tools the candidate will predict target system observables for identification, characterizations and analysis. Candidate will conduct research and development and verify novel and unique signature production and analysis algorithms and techniques to meet customer requirements. Candidates must be able to work independently and as part of a technical team and have effective oral and written communication skills. Successful candidates will have strong problem solving and critical thinking skills. Desire an active TS/SCI clearance.
