Overview

Seeking an experienced Advanced Framework for Simulation, Integration and Modeling (AFSIM) Developer to provide Modeling, Simulation, and Analysis (MS&A) support to U.S. Department of Defense programs. The selected candidate will design, develop, integrate, and sustain AFSIM-based capabilities while applying secure software lifecycle practices validated by an active CSSLP certification in support of DoD 8140/8570 requirements.

What will you do?

• Design, develop, and integrate AFSIM models, components, and scenarios to support analysis of engagement-, mission-, and campaign-level concepts for government customers.

• Implement secure software lifecycle practices (requirements, design, implementation, testing, deployment, maintenance) consistent with CSSLP domains and DoD cybersecurity policies.

• Develop and maintain C++-based AFSIM plug-ins, simulation entities, behaviors, and interfaces to external tools and data sources.

• Apply scripting (e.g., AFSIM's script environment, Python/Lua where appropriate) to configure scenarios, behaviors, and batch runs for government analysis tasks.

• Conduct code reviews, static analysis, and vulnerability remediation to ensure compliance with secure coding standards and program security requirements.

• Support configuration management, CI/CD pipelines, and test automation for AFSIM capabilities delivered under government contracts.

• Collaborate with government engineers, analysts, and other contractors to capture requirements, refine use cases, and translate them into verified, validated simulation capabilities.

• Prepare and deliver technical documentation, test reports, user guides, and briefing materials in accordance with contract deliverable requirements (CDRLs).

• Provide technical input to proposals, estimates, and design reviews for current and future MS&A task orders.

Do you have what it takes?

• Experience applying secure coding practices, vulnerability mitigation, and software assurance concepts across the software development lifecycle.

• Familiarity with DoD cybersecurity and risk management processes (e.g., RMF, DoDD 8140/8570 role-based certification requirements).

• Ability to obtain and maintain a DoD Secret clearance; current active Secret or higher strongly preferred.

Desired Qualifications
