Job Description

This is an UNPAID internship through the DoD SkillBridge Program for transitioning active-duty US military personnel. DoD SkillBridge Internships are available to help transitioning active-duty military personnel gain real-world experience in the work force sometime during their final 180 days of active-duty service. The intern will actively train on meaningful projects and work closely with a mentor and with senior company leadership. HII Mission Technologies Internship programs are focused on placing transitioning military into internships that require KSAs, Education & Military Training similar to their current or previous military jobs; positions that could easily transition over to a full-time regular and permanent job with HII. 

 

Objective

The SkillBridge intern will train as a LVC Mission Planner, supporting HII Mission Technologies’ Distributed Training Operations Center (DTOC) contract and related business areas. The transitioning service member will be fully qualified to serve as an LVC Mission Planner, capable of independently leading mission planning, execution, and debrief cycles for the 132nd CTS/DTOC while integrating live, virtual, and constructive training environments in support of Air National Guard and USAF combat readiness. Under the supervision of HII Program Managers, and technical leads, the transitioning service member will gain hands‑on experience in:

  • LVC Mission Planning & Execution
    • Master LMOC-P and Environment Generator for scenario creation
    • Lead mission cycles: pre-brief, execution, debrief, documentation
    • Coordinate with NOC, LMON, and LMOC-P teams for Event Control Center ops
    • Create/distribute Mission Planning Cell packages per PWS standards
  • Technical Integration & Troubleshooting
    • Integrate virtual simulators into live training events
    • Conduct M&S, Network Integration, and Operational Tests
    • Diagnose/resolve LVC software/hardware issues and optimize configurations
  • Tactical Advisory & Instruction
    • Apply AFTTP 3-1 and Joint Warfare doctrine to LVC scenarios
    • Brief LVC capabilities and advise leadership on events/emerging tech
    • Serve as DTOC LVC SME in multi-unit planning sessions

 

  • All work products will be reviewed, validated, and released exclusively by HII employees to ensure full compliance with DoD SkillBridge and representation restrictions.

 

  • HII Mission Technologies will benefit from the intern’s operational insight, maintenance expertise, and disciplined approach to technical data accuracy and sustainment readiness.
