Simulation Engineer - Advanced Framework for Simulation and Integration Modeling (AFSIM)

Role Overview

The AFSIM Simulation Engineer develops, executes, and analyzes physics-based mission simulations using the Advanced Framework for Simulation and Integration Modeling (AFSIM). This role supports mission effectiveness assessments, experimentation, and Live, Virtual, and Constructive (LVC) events by implementing MBSE-derived SysML views as AFSIM inputs to evaluate sensor-to-shooter kill chains and operational effects.

What You Will Do

Developing, modifying, and executing AFSIM models derived from MBSE SysML artifacts, analyzing blue vs. red kill chains, system interactions, and mission-level effects, translating MBSE handoff artifacts into executable AFSIM entities, behaviors, and interactions, and conducting verification and validation of AFSIM models.

Why It Might Be a Fit

This role requires a strong understanding of mission-level analysis, system architectures, and kill-chain dynamics, as well as the ability to interpret and analyze large simulation datasets and trace results back to system requirements and architecture drivers.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in engineering, physics, operations research, or related technical field
• Five or more years of modeling and simulation experience supporting system-level or mission-level analysis
• Hands-on experience developing and executing AFSIM models
• Strong understanding of mission-level analysis, system architectures, and kill-chain dynamics
• Ability to interpret and analyze large simulation datasets and trace results back to system requirements and architecture drivers

Benefits

• Medical, dental, and vision plans
• 401(k) with a company match
• Life insurance
• Vacation and sick paid time off accruals starting at 10 days of vacation and 5 days of sick leave annually
• 11 paid holidays
• Tuition reimbursement
• Work environment that encourages excellence
