About Rigil
Rigil is an award-winning, woman-owned, small business that specializes in technology consulting, strategy consulting and product development. We value teamwork and strive to build strong leaders.

Location: Atlantic City, NJ
Job Type: Full Time

Responsibilities:
This position will support a matrix team of talented personnel to conduct research development and test and evaluation of the safe integration of emerging operations. This work will be accomplished using the unique laboratory capabilities and tools resident at the customers for Advanced Aerospace, co-located at the Atlantic City. The team has been tasked to lead Human in the loop (HITL) simulations to inform initial entry into service at select major metropolitan areas and the team is researching future states for AAM operations as described in the customer’s Urban Air Mobility Concept of Operations.

The team intends to use AI, rule-based algorithms, and large language modeling to create software with the capability to evaluate vertiport placements and potential airspace usage (routes, corridors). This sub-task will enable pre-evaluation of potential vertiport sites and proposed routes to support suitability decisions earlier in an agile, swift M&S process for this applied research. Also, more routes and sites will be evaluated faster as precursor to the HITL simulations, saving both time and money.

Duties:
  • Supporting software development of an AI rule-based algorithms, and large language modeling with the capability to evaluate vertiport placements and potential airspace usage (routes, corridors).
  • Participating in agile planning discussions including Sprint Planning (what to deliver), Daily Stand-ups a.k.a “Scrums” (progress/blockers), Reviews (feedback), and Retrospectives. These meetings, often using Story Points for estimation, ensure a sustainable, realistic pace.
  • Designing and implementing data ingestion, cleaning, and structuring workflows to support repeatable analysis of simulation outputs.
  • Developing machine learning models to generalize and extrapolate findings from one simulated airport or vertiport environment to comparable operational environments.
  • Conducting predictive analytics and sensitivity analyses to assess throughput, safety margins, infrastructure impacts, and operational tradeoffs.
  • Supporting the building of automated analytics pipelines and scenario comparison tools to support rapid iteration across airport configurations and traffic assumptions.
  • Providing and ensuring model transparency, traceability, and explainability to support engineering validation.
  • Developing data visualizations and decision-support products that translate complex simulation results into actionable insights for scientists, engineers, researchers, and leadership.
  • Supporting integration of AI-enabled analytics with existing customer simulation environments and research workflows
Qualifications:
  • Degree Requirement: At minimum, a Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering, Math, or Science from an accredited college or university.
  • At least eight (8) years of relevant experience.
  • Must be a U.S. citizen or qualified to work for a U.S. government agency.
Compensation: $120,000.00 - $130,000.00 per year

U.S. Equal Opportunity Employment Information (Completion is voluntary)

We are an equal opportunity employer and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability status, protected veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law.

You are being given the opportunity to provide the following information in order to help us comply with federal and state Equal Employment Opportunity/Affirmative Action record keeping, reporting, and other legal requirements.

Completion of the form is entirely voluntary. Whatever your decision, it will not be considered in the hiring process or thereafter. Any information that you do provide will be recorded and maintained in a confidential file.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

An "Armed forces service medal veteran" means a veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service, participated in a United States military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded pursuant to Executive Order 12985.
