About the role
Job Description Job Description Overview
Sedaro is hiring a Modeling & Simulation Engineer to build the high fidelity simulation software that powers our cutting-edge simulation platform and help transform how aerospace technology is built.
Team: Modeling & Simulation, reporting to the Team Lead
Location:
In person in Arlington, VA
Active TS security clearance
Compensation
At Sedaro, we invest in the people who make our work possible. In addition to competitive salary, equity, and annual bonuses, eligible employees receive a $15,000 annual security clearance differential if they hold a final TS/SCI clearance in good standing and are assigned to, or designated as available for, work requiring it. The differential is paid in equal installments with each regular paycheck, separate from base salary.
Who We Are:
Our simulation platform enables digital mission engineering and model-based optimization through distributed, multi-domain, rapid analysis across hundreds of interacting systems. Our simulations have run at massive scale in data centers, in the loop with hardware in the lab, and on-orbit onboard real space hardware. Join us as an early employee and transform how teams collaboratively engineer the next generation of satellite constellations and connected fleets.
Who You Are:
You are a self-driven and creative engineer with a passion for solving complex problems.
You take pride in writing clean, efficient, and maintainable code to build robust and scalable simulations.
You thrive on technical challenges and take pride in owning your work from concept to implementation.
You are a natural collaborator, adept at working with interdisciplinary teams to build and refine cutting-edge software in a fast-paced, innovative environment.
What You'll Do:
As a Modeling & Simulation Engineer, you will be a hands-on individual contributor focused on expanding our platform's simulation capabilities. Your responsibilities will include:
Taking ownership of technical projects and driving development.
Developing high-fidelity simulation software and analysis tools for a diverse range of complex systems and validating these models against real-world data.
Configuring and executing large-scale multi-simulation studies that leverage cloud compute resources for uncertainty quantification, sensitivity analysis, and optimization.
Performing code review for peers and providing technical feedback and suggestions to other engineering teams to drive platform improvement.
Supporting contract meetings with technical input and demonstrations to external stakeholders.
Benefits:
Equity
Unlimited PTO
401(k) with 4% match
100% premium payment for Medical Insurance
Parental Leave
Flexible work schedule with core hours
Company provided lunches 3 days a week
Industry-leading career development opportunities
Requirements:
Bachelor's degree in physics, applied math, engineering, or similar
Experience writing software to model complex physical systems
Experience with git, automated testing, and related software development tools & practices
Experience validating simulation models against real-world data
Experience with data analysis and visualization
Able to obtain a TS security clearance
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
