What Does a Modeling and Simulation Analyst Do?

A modeling and simulation analyst uses computer software to perform analysis on systems, products, and processes or to predict outcomes. Your duties can vary depending on the industry in which you work. You design systems that use data to simulate different scenarios. You report the results of your simulations, define issues that came up, and offer solutions. Your responsibilities include running these solutions or alternate scenarios through your computer model. You can find employment in research and development departments, in the business sector, and with military and defense contractors. Government agencies and organizations also use modeling and simulation analysts.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Modeling and Simulation Analyst, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Modeling and Simulation Analyst, you need strong analytical and mathematical skills, a background in engineering, computer science, or a related field, and experience with simulation methodologies. Proficiency in technical tools such as MATLAB, Simulink, Python, or specialized simulation software, as well as familiarity with data analysis and visualization platforms, is typically required. Excellent problem-solving abilities, attention to detail, and effective communication skills help analysts interpret data and collaborate with multidisciplinary teams. These skills and qualifications are critical for developing accurate models, optimizing processes, and delivering actionable insights to support decision-making.

How does a Modeling and Simulation Analyst collaborate with cross-functional teams during a project?

Modeling and Simulation Analysts frequently work alongside engineers, project managers, and subject matter experts to develop accurate models and interpret simulation results. Collaboration often involves gathering requirements, validating data inputs, and presenting findings to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. Effective communication and teamwork are essential, as analysts must ensure their models align with project goals and provide actionable insights to guide decision-making. This cross-functional environment fosters learning and offers exposure to various disciplines, which can support career growth.

Job description

Job Title: Modeling & 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&A), research and development (R&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 & 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 & 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
