"I immediately recognized the excellence, enthusiasm, and creativity of the Aeris team. I joined Aeris knowing this was a place I could contribute to the innovative technical solutions being developed that have vital, real-world impact."

Matt Schirmer, M.S., M.A.
Associate Software Engineer IV
Mr. Schirmer received his M.S. in Hyrdrogeology in 1996 from the University of Georgia. He began his career working with engineering firms Woodward-Clyde and URS Greiner on their science/engineering teams performing computer groundwater modeling (fate and transport, and geochemical), project management, technical report writing and review.
In 2000, Mr. Schirmer accepted a position with Raytheon Company in Denver as a software engineer. This work introduced him to U.S. government aerospace defense projects, and he quickly became involved in the development of a mission-critical analysis tool suite that required 24/7 operational availability. This new software tool provided enhanced analysis components and advanced query capabilities for its users. The development required selecting new technologies to interface with older, existing OPS system architectures. As the software matured, Mr. Schirmer assumed the position as the responsible engineer for the software project. During that time, he led a team of engineers tasked with designing enhancements, performing bug fixes, and updating COTS, GOTS, and recapitalization of hardware components. Mr. Schirmer worked as a senior software engineer on several other defense-related projects with Raytheon, including the development of a constellation scheduling system for Digital Globe, and assignments related to missile-defense technologies.
In 2016, Mr. Schirmer returned to university to satisfy his interest in psychology and earned his M.A. in Clinical Mental Health in 2019. This pursuit led to personal growth and the desire to help others by offering low-cost counseling, which he does in his spare time.
In 2019 Mr. Schirmer accepted a position as a Software Engineer for Aeris where he has primarily been working on feature enhancement and maintenance of the Department of Defense (DoD) Joint Effects Model (JEM) software system.
