Overview
Trinzic is the future independent company being formed through the planned spin-off of KBR's Mission Technology Solutions business, expected in January 2027. Trinzic will launch as a global organization with more than 18,000 employees supporting customers worldwide. This role supports research and applied DoD programs, including modeling, simulation, and operationally relevant systems, with a primary focus on position, navigation, and timing (PNT) systems.
For candidates who join the KBR Mission Technology Solutions business before the spin-off, employment will transition to Trinzic after separation without the need to reapply.
Responsibilities
- Design, develop, and maintain software used in systems, simulations, and performance analysis environments.
- Lead the development and implementation of algorithms based on first principles physics, including measurement modeling, error characterization, and estimator behavior under non-ideal conditions.
- Architect and integrate solutions within software frameworks that support simulation, analysis, and testing.
- Integrate software with hardware-in-the-loop (HITL) and software-in-the-loop (SITL) and digital twin environments.
- Define and develop interfaces between software components and external systems.
- Lead and support test planning, execution, and analysis for PNT-focused experiments, demonstrations, and evaluations.
- Collaborate with systems engineers to align system requirements, hardware constraints, and software designs.
- Review work, mentor engineers, and provide technical guidance to junior and mid-level team members.
- Document software designs, algorithms, and test results to support technical reviews and customer deliverables.

- Experience integrating software with complex systems, simulations, or external hardware components.
- Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. DoD security clearance.
Desired Qualifications
- Advanced experience with GPS/GNSS signal processing, navigation algorithms, or timing systems.
- Experience developing or evaluating alternative or resilient PNT approaches.
- Experience with modeling, simulation, or digital twin environments that support PNT analysis.
- Familiarity with real-time or embedded systems.
- Experience with HIL/SIL test architectures, laboratory integration, or field testing.
- Experience supporting DoD programs, laboratory R&D, or operational prototyping efforts.
