Description

The Modeling and Simulation Lead will work within the consortium environment to develop and analyze scenarios that tie in all domains of warfare under ABMS for key mission areas.This role will be 4 days onsite in Arlington, VA with at least one day of remote work.

To accomplish the DAF's mission, the government in partnership with the ABMS DI Consortium will develop a digital infrastructure that connects the joint warfighting force, enables sharing of information across the U.S. Air Force, U.S. Space Force, joint allies, partners and multi-domains and provide decision superiority to tactical, operational and strategic customers. The DI Consortium is comprised of industry leaders in systems engineering, digital engineering, model-based systems engineering, cyber security, integration & test and operations and sustainment working together in a collaborative environment to delivery critical capabilities to our warfighters. 

Responsibilities:

• Generate analytical modeling solutions to assess enterprise performance, identify technology gaps, creating technology roadmaps, developing requirements and specifying the operational benefits of current and future concepts based on customer approved scenarios

• Conduct mission engineering and analysis studies to evaluate the efficacy of legacy architectures and new technologies in new mission concepts of employment to meet evolving joint mission objectives

• Support requirements development, system verification, and concept of operations (CONOPS) development as well as working with system and mission analysts to ensure additional modeling, simulation, analysis capabilities meet operational mission requirements

• Identify opportunities for the integration of new and existing models from developers and industry partners into new or existing simulation environments

• Plan Model-based Systems Engineering (MBSE) model development in support of systems engineering objectives and program milestones

• Lead an analysis team that integrates modeling and simulation to MBSE, plans and executes a study plan, and effectively communicates priorities to team members

• Provide technical and programmatic direction on the development, integration, and use of model-based engineering and model-based systems engineering models

• Work side-by-side with existing subject matter experts in modeling and simulation to develop an integrated approach modeling the system(s) prior to warfighter operational acceptance

• Develop modeling solutions for each phase of the find, fix, target, track, engage, and assess chain using sensor, effects, and communications technologies

• Develop multi-domain operations scenarios in the Advanced Framework for Simulation, Integration and Modeling (AFSIM) or other related tools

• Develop and briefing data packages that provide analysis results to inform the government decision-makers

Qualifications

• Ability to obtain a DoD Secret security clearance is required

• Bachelors Engineering, Mathematics, Computer Science, Physics, or other relevant technical field and nine (9) years or more experience; Masters and seven (7) years or more experience; PhD and four (4) years or more experience

• Experience with modeling, simulation, and mission analysis techniques and tools

• Experienced at self-starting, seeking solutions, and works well in a team environment

• Experience working in a virtual computing environment

Desired Qualifications:

• Prior experience working JADC2 initiatives, or other System of Systems highly networked programs

• Prior experience working on USAF rapid capability programs

• Proficiency with one or more M&S tools to include: AFSIM, SEAS, ExtendSIM, JCATS, PlanX, STORM, iGrafix, Dagger, AWARS, STK, OneSAF, GIANT, IMOM, JCSS

• Experience with M&S federation tools such as Joint Simulation Protocol Analyzer (JSPA), DIS-Filter, JLVC Analysis Workstation (JAWS), and Perspective

• Familiarity with VMWare and the creation and use of virtual machines
