Affordability Engineering at Raytheon integrates technical performance, manufacturing behavior, supply chain dynamics, sustainment workflows, and readiness metrics into a unified cost and throughput framework that supports leadership decision-making across the full product lifecycle. As the Senior Theory of Constraint (TOC) Modeling Engineer, you will play a critical role in enabling enterprise-level insights through advanced Discrete Event Simulation (DES) modeling.

The Senior Theory of Constraint (TOC) Modeling Engineer coordinates local efforts and ensures alignment with enterprise standards. You will collaborate across Systems Engineering, Operations, Supply Chain, and Manufacturing teams to deliver impactful modeling results that drive affordability, readiness, and throughput improvements.

This is an onsite role based in Tucson, AZ.

What You Will Do

• Lead onsite TOC modeling activities in Tucson, coordinating daily modeling tasks, priorities, and data updates across local stakeholders.
• Develop, modify, and validate discrete event simulation models, including customization of logic, resource networks, multi-contract/multi-product flows, and sustainment behaviors.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define model boundaries, extract inputs, validate assumptions, and ensure alignment with real-world system behaviors.
• Analyze and communicate system constraints, throughput impacts, queueing behaviors, yield sensitivities, resource limitations, and supply-demand interactions.
• Design and execute advanced experiments, scenario sweeps, and sensitivity analyses to support affordability and readiness metrics.
• Create and maintain high-quality model documentation, assumption logs, configuration baselines, and traceable data reduction workflows.
• Present simulation outputs to program leadership, explaining operational, affordability, and readiness impacts with clarity and technical accuracy.
• Support continuous integration of updated program data, ensuring models reflect evolving factory, supplier, and sustainment realities.
• Mentor modelers through technical guidance, fostering growth in TOC methodology, DES fundamentals, and Affordability Engineering standards.

Qualifications You Must Have

• Typically requires a degree in Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics (STEM) and a minimum of 5 years of prior relevant experience unless prohibited by local laws/regulations.
• Experience in Systems Engineering, operations research, Industrial Engineering, and/or complex production system modeling.
• Experience with discrete event simulation (DES), designing, modifying, and/or validating complex simulation architectures involving multiple product flows.
• Experience with structured datasets (e.g., Excel, CSV, or databases).
• Experience interpreting queueing dynamics, resource utilization patterns, yield sensitivities, and/or systemic bottlenecks.

Qualifications We Prefer

• Experience developing and analyzing multi-contract, multi-product, or system-of-systems simulation environments, including sustainment and lifecycle modeling.
• Experience with Python, Power BI, Tableau, and/or JMP, with experience customizing discrete event simulation models and modifying model logic (including C programming).
• Experience in scenario design, sensitivity studies, and optimization-based trade space exploration to support engineering and operational decision-making.
• Experience leading technical reviews, whiteboard sessions, and model walkthroughs with cross-functional stakeholders such as Engineering, Operations, and PMO teams.
• Experience delivering analytical models and insights for affordability planning, lifecycle cost assessments, and program strategy, with strong understanding of manufacturing, supply chain, and engineering lifecycles.

What We Offer

• Our values drive our actions, behaviors, and performance with a vision for a safer, more connected world. At RTX we value: Safety, Trust, Respect, Accountability, Collaboration, and Innovation.
