We are seeking an AFSIM Simulation Engineer to develop and execute mission-level and kill-chain simulations that consume MBSE-defined system architectures, interfaces, and
mission threads to assess hardware-centric DoD platforms and integrated mission systems.
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 that trace back 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
- Top Secret Security Clearance
- 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
