What are some common challenges faced by an AFSIM engineer when integrating new simulation models into existing frameworks?

AFSIM Engineers often encounter challenges when integrating new models, such as ensuring compatibility with existing simulation architectures and maintaining data integrity across various components. Balancing the fidelity of simulations with computational efficiency can also be demanding, especially when working with large-scale or complex scenarios. Additionally, effective communication with multidisciplinary teams—like software developers, analysts, and subject matter experts—is essential to align requirements and resolve integration issues promptly.

What is an AFSIM engineer?

An AFSIM Engineer is a specialist who works with the Advanced Framework for Simulation, Integration, and Modeling (AFSIM) software. They are responsible for developing, integrating, and analyzing complex simulations, often for defense or aerospace applications. Their work involves modeling systems, running performance assessments, and supporting decision-making with simulation data. AFSIM Engineers typically have backgrounds in engineering, computer science, or physics, and experience with scripting or programming is often required.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an AFSIM engineer, and why are they important?

To thrive as an AFSIM Engineer, you need a strong background in systems engineering, simulation modeling, and programming, typically supported by a degree in engineering, computer science, or a related field. Proficiency with the Advanced Framework for Simulation, Integration and Modeling (AFSIM), scripting languages (such as Lua or Python), and experience with modeling tools are essential. Strong analytical thinking, problem-solving skills, and effective communication set top performers apart. These competencies ensure accurate simulation results, effective collaboration, and the ability to meet complex defense or aerospace modeling needs.

Job description

Job Title: Modeling amp; Simulation Specialist | AFSIM Gunslinger
Location: Colorado Springs, CO
This position is open for an AFSIM Developer or AFSIM Analyst. All applicants must meet the general requirements listed below to be considered for either role. Additional requirements specific to the AFSIM Developer role are indicated throughout the description; candidates meeting these additional qualifications will be considered for the Developer role.
Who You Are:
Much like your counterparts in the Old West, you are not one to be trifled with. You’re as fearsome as Billy the Kid and as good a shot as Annie Oakley. Your instincts are unrivaled and your brand of justice final. Your weapons of choice; math, multi-lingual programming languages, and caffeine…lots of caffeine.
As AFSIM Gunslinger, your job is to tell customers what the modeling and simulation framework can do, could do, and won’t do. You should understand the framework architecture so well that others think you invented it or were present when the GOTS tool was born. You should know how to integrate models from other tools and frameworks much like the outlaws of old who used many weapons as part of a greater arsenal. From that knowledge, depth, and breadth of understanding, you’ve gained a reputation as a cold-blooded developer capable of meeting deliverable times, hunting down and finding complex scripting issues, and sniffing-out trouble in proposed engineering solutions. You detest proprietary solutions from other vendors and reject them with great force.
Who We Are:
Infinity Labs is an innovation-driven company with world-class expertise in the defense and national security sectors. Infinity provides cutting-edge engineering technologies and solutions, including modeling, simulation, and analysis (MS amp;A), research and development (R amp;D), cyber operational technology, and training. Our extensive project portfolio covers a vast range of physical scales and applications, from materials and components to subsystems, platforms, and systems of systems. We integrate science and systems as part of our overall solutioning approach and we investigate advanced concepts and technologies with disruptive application potential. The sophistication of our work directly reflects the ingenuity and proficiency of our team. Our workforce shapes the future, and our employees are our greatest asset.
What You’ll Do:
  • Configure digital representations of complex military systems to support operational utility, asset vulnerability, system integration, and concept of operations assessments within a synthetic simulation environment.
  • Work with domain experts to understand the nuances of specific systems (or classes of systems) and use abstraction techniques to model them at the mission-level.
  • Assemble known information when available and use engineering judgement to fill in the blanks to represent real world hardware, software, or processes used in military operations.
  • You must be able to manage your time effectively and interface with customers regularly. In addition, beyond simply meeting project milestones and deadlines, the ideal candidate sees modeling amp; simulation as a tool to empower decision makers and provides capabilities at the speed of relevance rather than endlessly pursuing “the perfect model”.
  • Coordinate with other model specialist and developers to plug capabilities into a greater system-of-systems environment used to analyze large scale mission vignettes. In the process, you will become a subject matter expert in the system types that you model.
  • If this position is listed as onsite, you will regularly collaborate with teammates and/or clients in person.
Additional responsibilities for Developer role:
  • Modify simulation frameworks to add functionality required to fully assess models and scenarios.
  • Develop new software plug-ins to increase simulation framework capability.
Minimum Qualifications/What You’ll Bring:
  • Minimum 2+ years of experience using the Advanced Framework for Simulation, Integration, and Modeling (AFSIM) to model systems and systems of systems
  • Verifiable experience supporting government (military) programs
  • Proficiency in applying modeling amp; simulation techniques to support the decision-making process
Additional qualifications for Developer role:
  • Industry experience with C++ development (preferably with C++ 11 or higher)
Education/Credentials:
  • BS or BA degree in a math, physics, or engineering discipline
  • US Citizenship is required for consideration, as this job requires US government security clearance.
    • Nice to have – Secret level clearance
    • Acceptable – No current clearance but eligibility to obtain
Nice to Haves:
  • Advanced degree in math, physics, or engineering
  • Familiarity with using a high-level language such as Python, MATLAB/Simulink, or Julia
  • Familiarity with the AFSIM community and know where to find data/POCs if needed
  • Experience modifying the AFSIM framework through the development of new plugins
  • Deep understanding of the World Simulation Framework
  • You can explain what a component-based architecture is
  • You understand the terms native model, plugin, extension, command syntax, and scripting in an AFSIM context
  • You can explain what an Application, Scenario, and Simulation are and why they are important
  • Experience with other mission-level simulation frameworks
Physical Demands:
  • Must be able to remain in a stationary position and work on a computer for prolonged periods
