AMA, a division of Applied Research Associates, Inc, is hiring!
Description:
Applied Research Associates, Inc. (ARA) is actively seeking a driven individual who enjoys challenging and impactful work in the physical and computational sciences. This position is for an engineer or scientist with a background evaluating complex physics through modeling and simulation and across diverse spatial and temporal scales. Join our team of engineers and scientists in the effort to deliver urgent capabilities needed by the Warfighter at the tactical edge to survive, fight, and win in a CBRNe (chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and explosive) operational environment. Tasks include data analysis, model development, integration with modeling and simulation (M& S) platforms, and decision support tools creation to study the potential impact of these threats on military and civilian populations, as well as explore tactics to respond and recover from real events.
Qualified candidates local to the Raleigh, NC area, are eligible to work a hybrid schedule. Qualified candidates not local to the Raleigh area are eligible for remote work.
Selected candidates must be U.S. Citizens and may be subject to a government security investigation. Candidates must meet eligibility requirements for access to classified information.

Company & Division Information
The Joint Forces are faced with an overwhelming task to anticipate chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN), as well as explosive threats, and deliver capabilities to defend against and defeat them. The nature of conflict, and these threats, is complex and diverse. Therefore, the science and technology (S& T) for core capabilities must continue to evolve. Modeling and simulation (M& S) are an effective way to study the potential impact of these threats on military and civilian populations, as well as explore tactics to respond to and recover from real events.
Our M& S, data, and tools enable the evaluation and delivery of urgent capabilities needed by the Warfighter at the tactical edge to survive, fight, and win in a CBRNe environment. This common core of M& S representing a DoD-accepted knowledgebase can be quickly leveraged or adapted to deliver leading-edge solutions that address current and emerging threats.
