Radiance is looking for support that will help with the execution and analysis of rocket-based propulsion system designs and their associated exhaust plume characteristics. Staff will leverage Joint Army-Navy-NASA-Air Force (JANNAF) community standard software as well as in-house analysis tools to develop inputs and model solutions for the rocket propulsion performance metrics for identified target systems of interest, as well as using these solutions to initialize exhaust plume flowfield and radiometric signature predictions. Other responsibilities will include establishing benchmark cases, executing the appropriate suite of modeling tools, and validating the results against available measurements. Modeling studies will conclude with technical reports and briefings to team members, customers and other stakeholders.. The work is in support of the National Air and Space Intelligence Center (NASIC) at Wright Patterson Air Force Base. Work location will be at NASIC, Radiance facilities, or some combination of both.

Required Experience:

5+ years of experience with infrared sensor data to include sensor characterization, data analysis, sensor modeling, and/or development of algorithms.
