MANTECH seeks a motivated, career and customer-oriented WARGAME DEVELOPER to join our team in QUANTICO, VA.
Join the vanguard of the Marine Corps Wargaming Division as we modernize the decision environment. In this role, you will be instrumental in assisting with the transition from traditional wargaming into a high-fidelity digital future, ensuring that our nation's senior leaders have the most sophisticated tools and insights to shape future force design.
Responsibilities include but are not limited to:

  • Bridge the gap between analog play and digital environments, evangelizing the capability and utilization methods of new tools to help the customer reach digital maturity.
  • Assist the analysts in developing tools to capture player decisions and telemetry across both formats, ensuring analysts have robust data for post-game reconstruction.
  • Partner with designers and developers to refine mechanics that accurately reflect Marine Corps capabilities while remaining intuitive and "playable" for senior stakeholders and lead the test and an evaluation process of a game design prior to gameplay.

  • Experience developing player-facing products, reference guides, or game mechanics manuals.
  • Ability to provide examples of product development work (I.e. reference guides, branded materials, etc.)

Preferred Qualifications:
  • Familiarity with the transition from analog tabletop exercises (TTX) to integrated digital environments.
  • Experience with government-provided simulation tools such as AFSIM, Command PE, or similar platforms.
  • Prior experience supporting the Marine Corps or other Federal wargaming entities.
  • The ability to conduct research and capture detailed data inputs needed for game fidelity and coordinating with intel branches to capture detailed data for game play.
