  • Apply standards related to human factors (e.g., MIL-STD-1472F, MIL-HBK-759C, MIL-HB-46855).
  • Apply the principles of human system integration (HSI) using the concepts of System-of-Systems (SoS), HSI and experience.
  • Research and apply AI in areas like cognitive modelling, training and decision support for complex systems, human behaviour simulation, and eye-voice interfaces.
  • Perform risk assessment and modelling and conduct cognitive task analysis and social network analysis.
  • Develop intelligent training systems, advanced HCI technologies, and human behavioural models.
  • Identify and measure effectiveness and performance metrics (MOEs and MOPs).

Manage and provide leadership in cognitive engineering projects.

you need

  • Doctorate degree (Ph.D.) related to the field (cognitive science, cognitive psychology, HCI, computer science, AI, etc.) with 5+ years of relevant experience OR master’s degree related to the field with 10+ years of relevant experience.
  • Ability to work in a team, be independent, take initiative and enjoy learning.

What
we offer

  • A relaxed atmosphere and a work environment based on team spirit, communication and professional fulfillment;
  • A streamlined, flexible hierarchical structure – more of a mentor than a boss!
  • Flexible working hours of 37.5 hours per week to accommodate your quality of life;
  • A stimulating career;
  • An excellent work-life balance: family leave, telecommuting depending on customer needs, group insurance paid 50% by the employer;
  • Exquisite 5@7s, plus social and sports activities throughout the year;
