What is GAMS modeling?

GAMS modeling refers to the use of the General Algebraic Modeling System (GAMS), which is a high-level programming environment designed for modeling and solving optimization problems. It is commonly used by operations researchers, economists, and engineers to formulate complex linear, nonlinear, and mixed-integer mathematical models. GAMS allows users to describe models in a clear algebraic form and connects to a variety of powerful solvers to find optimal solutions. Its flexibility and broad solver support make it a popular choice for large-scale optimization in industry and academia.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a GAMS modeler?

To thrive as a GAMS Modeler, you need strong analytical skills, a solid foundation in mathematical optimization, and experience with the GAMS (General Algebraic Modeling System) language, often supported by a degree in mathematics, engineering, or operations research. Proficiency with optimization solvers (such as CPLEX or GUROBI), data analysis tools, and familiarity with relevant programming languages like Python or MATLAB is typically required. Strong problem-solving abilities, attention to detail, and effective communication skills help a modeler translate complex real-world problems into mathematical models and collaborate with interdisciplinary teams. These skills and qualities are crucial for delivering robust, efficient optimization solutions that address business or research challenges.

What are common challenges faced when developing optimization models using GAMS, and how can I overcome them?

One common challenge in GAMS modeling is accurately translating complex real-world constraints into mathematical formulations while maintaining model tractability and performance. Debugging errors and ensuring data consistency can also be demanding, especially when working with large datasets or integrating with external data sources. To overcome these challenges, it's helpful to adopt modular modeling practices, thoroughly document your code, and utilize GAMS' built-in debugging and diagnostic tools. Collaborating closely with domain experts and team members can also clarify requirements and validate model assumptions, leading to more robust solutions.

You will be a key player in M&S functions and operations through designing, developing and presenting results of various studies. Responsibilities include but are not limited to: * Conduct and participate in short notice as well as long-term analytical studies and assessments using a variety of tools and techniques to include qualitative, spreadsheet, and computer simulation-based analyses
* Leading and assisting in the development of analysis plans for trade-off studies of Air Force combat aircraft and weapon requirements, modernization, and new acquisitions. Typical studies include weapon capability analyses, aircraft survivability analyses, current and future combat aircraft inventory requirement analyses, and weapon acquisition analyses
* Using available data, subject matter expert knowledge, and best judgement, create and maintain input data for Combat Forces Assessment Model (CFAM) and work with other computer simulations
* Run CFAM and analyze output data. Verify and validate the results
* Present analysis of CFAM output to include insights, conclusions, and recommendations in written documents and verbal briefings for review by Air Force decision makers
* Attend and participate in meetings both locally and at other locations as a subject matter expert on CFAM, air combat analysis, and SAF/SA analytic capability
* Complete computer-based and in person training as required by the government and company policy
* Travel up to 25% within the continental United States in support of customer needs Minimum Qualifications: * Bachelor's degree in Mathematics, Operations Research, or related engineering field and 1+ years of related educational or professional experience.
* Educational or professional experience in Linear Programming
* Educational or professional experience in data analysis, identifying trends in multi-variate data
* Educational or professional experience using Microsoft Office products (ex. Excel, PowerPoint) Preferred Qualifications: * Experience in software programming skills using General Algebraic Modeling Systems (GAMS)
* 5+ years of experience in the US Air Force or other military service
* Masters in Operations Research/Mathematics/Linear and Nonlinear Optimization
* Experience in modeling & simulation of modern combat aircraft, other airborne systems, and weapons employment at the campaign level
* Experience developing study plans that include background, purpose of study, scope/limitations, critical assumptions and constraints, measures of effectiveness, study parameters and variables, methodology description, data requirements and schedule
* Capable of managing a team of experienced full-stack software engineers who program the front and back ends of a complex software application Clearance Requirements: * US Citizenship required and a current or active, Secret clearance, or ability to obtain and maintain an Interim secret clearance (candidate can start without Interim Clearance).
