Job Description

The Role

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—including requirements, functional threads, physical architectures, and interfaces—as AFSIM inputs to evaluate sensor-to-shooter kill chains and operational effects, including EMSO-relevant influences.

Responsibilities



  • Develop, modify, and execute AFSIM models derived from MBSE SysML artifacts, including mission threads, functional flows, system architectures, and interface definitions




  • Analyze blue vs. red kill chains, system interactions, and mission-level effects across integrated sensor, shooter, and command elements




  • Translate MBSE handoff artifacts (requirements allocations, activity diagrams, block definitions, internal block diagrams) into executable AFSIM entities, behaviors, and interactions




  • Integrate sensor, RF, EW, weapon, and platform models consistent with MBSE-defined system boundaries, interfaces, and architectural assumptions




  • Support experimentation, test events, and LVC exercises focused on validating system architectures, mission threads, and kill-chain performance




  • Conduct verification and validation of AFSIM models against MBSE-defined assumptions, constraints, and system definitions




  • Perform statistical and analytical assessments of mission outcomes and kill-chain performance drivers, producing analysis products traceable to system design and architecture decisions




  • Collaborate with MBSE, LVC, and other modeling and simulation teams to maintain digital thread continuity from SysML models through AFSIM simulations to analysis reports and T&E artifacts



Required Qualifications



  • Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Physics, Operations Research, or related technical field


  • Active DoD Secret (Top Secret/SCI preferred)



  • 5+ 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




Desired Qualifications



  • Experience supporting DoD platforms or hardware-centric mission systems within an MBSE-driven development environment




  • Experience executing sensor-to-shooter or effects-based kill-chain analysis tied directly to system architecture trades




  • Experience supporting DoD test, evaluation, or experimentation activities using MBSE-informed scenarios and architectures




  • Programming experience in Python, C++, or MATLAB
