Job Description
Responsibilities/Qualification
Location: San Diego, CA
Position Summary
The Virtual Reality Human Systems Integration Engineer is responsible for developing training support materials and products, including analysis reports, design documents, instructional content and courseware (according to the analysis, design, development, implementation and evaluation phases of the ADDIE instructional design model). The VR-HSI Engineers will help assure the quality of products acquired by EODTEU ONE prior to government acceptance and approval. The VR-HSI Engineers will be capable of independent judgement with the ability to provide adaptive analytical thinking. Furthermore, these personnel must incorporate those capabilities within a working knowledge of ocular viewed immersive photorealistic spherical virtual reality platforms and their associated manufacturing processes. The VR-HI Engineer will assist EODTEUONE in the evaluation of ocular viewed immersive photorealistic spherical virtual reality platforms and advise on best concepts, techniques and technologies to accelerate learning of the approved EODTEU ONE curriculum.
Responsibilities

• Analyze ocular viewed immersive photorealistic spherical video performance outcomes and observations on platform content, scheduling and delivery in order to recommend and implement changes.

• Human performance and technical analysis (i.e. storage, processing, and dissemination) of lessons learned reports, technology recommendations, and data (raw and analyzed). Human performance, technical analysis and recommendations should be forwarded to government personnel (EODTEU, EODGRU).

• Use collected data to make recommendations to government personnel for improving future platform iterations. This may be done on government-provided computing resources.

• Ocular viewed immersive photorealistic spherical video protocol implementations with regards to the technical aspects of training or operating in an environment with potentially reactive materials, taking place at local training venues as well as Navy EOD training sites in Darwin Wash, SLC, VA Beach, and others.

• Other facilitation requirements include: Aid in obtaining and maintaining divisional professional knowledge library, aid with the coordination of military, civilian and/or contracted instructors communicate with national labs, academic labs and other general administration as required.
