• Support Combatant Command level Command Post Exercises (CPXs) and Field Training Exercises (FTXs)
• Integrate disparate simulation systems and C4I systems with federated and non-federated LVC M&S tools ensuring seamless data exchange and operational realism
• Develop LVC components that inject simulation data onto user networks and user components for end-to-end capabilities analysis and training effectiveness
• Implement interface standards including Distributed Interactive Simulation (DIS) High Level Architecture (HLA) and Test and Training Enabling Architecture (TENA)
• Develop interfaces and interoperability tools to distributed simulations to aid in the exercise and analysis of emerging real and conceptual systems
• Provide technical direction and supervision to development teams
• Create and present technical roadmaps and strategic plans for simulation architecture
• Conduct SME meetings to determine user and interoperability requirements to aid in LVC architecture definition
• Assess and incorporate new technologies (to include AI/ML) into existing simulation tool sets
• Support requirements analysis tool development Verification Validation and Accreditation (VV&A) and post-event analysis
• Provide pre/post-performance assessment analysis of exercises and training events
• Develop scenario vignettes detailing LVC entity interactions represented on digital terrain
• Configure models using tactical data as input for semi-automated forces to represent role players in exercises
• Collect exercise data and perform data reduction for technical reports
• Provide systems engineering support in federated and non-federated LVC M&S
• Meet configuration management requirements for all hardware and software components affecting modeling and simulation tool sets
• Provide mathematical analysis software program development computer programming and management staff guidance for scientific engineering problems
• Develop and verify correlated terrains across LVC architectures
• Ensure seamless data exchange and operational realism

Qualifications:

Required:

• Bachelors degree or higher in Computer Science Operations Research Information Technology Electrical Engineering Software Engineering or other relevant technical discipline OR 12 years of additional relevant experience may be substituted for education
• 8 years of experience in M&S engineering with a deep understanding of LVC principles and their application in DoD technical programs
• Experience with weapon systems analysis using models simulations and virtual prototypes
• Strong communication and presentation skills for technical and non-technical audiences
• Experience with Combatant Command level Command Post Exercises (CPXs) and Field Training Exercises (FTXs)
• Proven ability to integrate disparate simulation systems and C4I systems with federated and non-federated LVC M&S tools
• Capable of creating and presenting technical roadmaps and strategic plans for simulation architecture
• Demonstrated experience providing technical direction and supervision to development teams
• Experience across the full M&S lifecycle including requirements analysis tool development VV&A and post-event analysis
• Experience within a Joint Simulation Environment using Joint Theater Level Simulation - Global Operations (JTLS-GO) Joint Land Component Constructive Training Capability (JLCCTC) One Semi-Automated Forces (OneSAF) Joint Semi-Automated Forces (JSAF)
• Warfighter Simulation (WARSIM) Extended Air Defense Simulation (EADSIM) Missile Defense Advanced Simulation (MDASim)
• Active Secret Clearance

Desired:

• Masters degree or Ph.D. in relevant technical discipline
• Experience with Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) tools and methodologies
• Experience developing human-in-the-loop interactive prototype simulation representations
• Experience with simulation interface standards (DIS HLA TENA)
