About the role
MTSI is seeking Senior AFSIM (Advanced Framework for Simulation, Integration, and Modeling) Developer/Analyst to design, implement, and analyze mission-level simulations supporting advanced DoD systems and CONOPS development. The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience extending AFSIM through scenario scripting, high‑fidelity subsystem modeling, analytic workflows, and C++ plugin development. This role involves building and integrating complex models for sensors, weapons, communications, and decision logic into scalable simulation architectures to evaluate system performance and mission effectiveness.
Key Responsibilities:
- Architect, develop, and maintain AFSIM models, plugins, and simulation components to support advanced mission‑level analyses.
- Develop custom AFSIM behaviors, algorithms, and decision models (tasking logic, autonomy, federated multi‑domain behaviors, etc.).
- Integrate external data sources (threat models, performance data, signatures, environmental models) to improve simulation fidelity.
- Analyze simulation results and extract actionable insights and recommendations to stakeholders.
- Collaborate with engineers, analysts, and subject matter experts to define simulation requirements and scenarios.
- Integrate new capabilities, algorithms, and data into AFSIM models to enhance simulation fidelity.
- Document simulation processes, methodologies, and results in technical reports and presentations.
- Support briefings and discussions with customers and stakeholders.
Basic Qualifications:
- US citizenship and ability to obtain and maintain a security clearance (if not already held)
- Bachelor’s degree in engineering, Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics, or related field.
- 7+ years hands-on experience developing AFSIM models, scenarios, and plugins.
- Familiarity with modeling and simulation principles including discrete‑event simulation, stochastic modeling, Monte Carlo techniques, and scenario-based experimentation.
- Strong programming skills in languages such as C++, Python, or similar.
- Excellent problem-solving and analytical skills.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Master’s degree in a technical field.
- Experience modeling military platforms, RF systems, weapons, C2 networks, orbital mechanics, or EW effects.
- Familiarity with other simulation tools or frameworks (e.g., MATLAB, STK, or similar).
- Knowledge of data visualization and analysis tools.
Why Join Us?
- Work on cutting-edge technologies and contribute to mission-critical projects.
- Join a collaborative, high-performing team of engineers and analysts.
- Competitive compensation and benefits package.
