Simulation Engineer, Lead
The Opportunity:
You build the synthetic worlds that help warfighters decide faster. As a Lead Simulation Engineer, you'll fuse Program of Record (PoR) sims, including NGST, AFSIM, AFMSTT, and SAFESIM, with real-time engines such as Unity and Unreal Engine as well as NVIDIA Omniverse to deliver credible, interoperable LVC environments for Indo-Pacific missions. You'll set technical direction, mentor engineers, and partner with operators to turn mission questions into data-driven outcomes.
What You'll Work On:
- Lead architecture and technical delivery of mission-grade simulation solutions spanning AFSIM, AFMSTT, SAFESIM, and NGST and real-time engines such as Unity, Unreal, and Omniverse, ensuring scale, fidelity, and interoperability.
- Integrate DIS, HLA, TENA, USD, and Omniverse pipelines for multi-domain LVC exercises, wargames, and operational analysis.
- Translate operational concepts, including CONOPS, TTPs, MOP, and MOE into scenarios, models, and data flows aligned to Indo-Pacific mission threads.
- Own software quality and implement DevSecOps, CI/CD, automated testing, code reviews, and model validation against ground truth.
- Mentor and grow a high-performing team to drive backlog, estimation, and delivery against mission milestones.
- Engage with stakeholders across Service components such as air, maritime, cyber, and space to capture needs and demonstrate outcomes.
- Advance performance and realism via GPU acceleration, multi-node orchestration, and sensor or weapon modeling.
- Support capture and proposals with credible technical volumes, BOEs, and demos that reflect Indo-Pacific realities.
Join us. The world can't wait.
You Have:
- Experience with PoR sims such as NGST, AFSIM, AFMSTT, and SAFESIM, including integrating models, scenarios, and data sources
- Experience with Unity and Unreal Engine with C# or C++
- Experience with real-time or near-real-time simulations
- Experience with Git, including GitHub, GitLab, or Azure DevOps, CI/CD, test automation, and containerization such as Docker or Kubernetes
- Experience with modeling and analysis translating operational needs into measurable outcomes such as MOP and MOE, scenario design, and validation
- Knowledge of HLA, DIS, and TENA LVC architectures and gateway translation
- Ability to obtain a TS/SCI clearance
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or Applied Mathematics and 2+ years of experience in data engineering, or 5+ years of experience in data engineering in lieu of a degree
Nice If You Have:
- Experience bridging AFSIM with Unity, Unreal, or Omniverse and composing multi-engine pipelines
- Experience with NVIDIA Omniverse, including USD pipelines, Render and Kit, and SimReady assets for collaborative simulation workflows
- Experience with GPU and HPC optimization such as CUDA and multi-GPU orchestration, physics-based modeling, or synthetic sensor simulation
- Experience with Agile leadership, including Scrum and Kanban, backlog management, and mentorship of mid-level engineers
- Experience with Cloud and edge deployment such as AWS, Azure, and GovCloud/IL environments, IaC, including Terraform, and secure networking
- Knowledge of RMF or STIG and secure software practices for classified environments
- Knowledge of JADC2, Indo-Pacific operational context, and mission thread decomposition
- TS/SCI clearance
- Master's degree preferred; Doctorate degree in Engineering or Computer Science a plus
- DoD 8570 Baseline, NVIDIA Omniverse, Unity, or Unreal Certification
Clearance:
Applicants selected will be subject to a security investigation and may need to meet eligibility requirements for access to classified information.
