Job Description
Space is a critical domain, connecting our technologies, our security and our humanity. While others view space as a destination, we see it as a realm of possibilities, where we can do more— we can innovate, invest, inspire and integrate our capabilities to transform the future.
At Lockheed Martin Space, we aim to harness the full potential of space to cultivate innovation, reduce costs, and push the boundaries of what technology can achieve. We’re creating future-ready solutions, focusing on resiliency and urgency through our 21st Century Security® vision. We’re erasing boundaries and forming partnerships across industries and around the world. We’re advancing spacecraft and the workforce to fuel the next generation. And we’re reimagining how space can connect us, ensuring security and prosperity. Join us in shaping a new era in space and find a career that's built for you.
The Lockheed Martin Space Combat Effectiveness Core (CEC) team in King of Prussia, PA is building a space combat simulator to model space conflicts. What forces will be needed to win? How can available resources best be allocated? What are the most effective defenses to adversary threats? CEC software simulates a wide range of scenarios, wargaming the actions from both sides of a conflict to help our stakeholders develop strategy, tactics, techniques, and procedures. The team builds on this foundation for our partners by creating Mission Applications spanning Space Domain Awareness, Battle Management Command/Control and Test/Training. We are looking for strong, team-oriented full stack Java/JavaScript software developers, background with orbital mechanics, mathematics, gaming and optimization strategies a plus.
