Position Overview

FlightSafety Defense Corporation is gearing to become a recognized integration partner and solution provider for the U.S. Air Force and U.S. Navy in the Joint Simulation Environment (JSE) and Simulator Common Architecture Requirements and Standards (SCARS) ecosystem. The JSE Cloud/Cyber architect is a key hands-on contributor working under the guidance of the JSE Project Lead to implement, test, and verify JSE/SCARS-compliant software and interfaces across FlightSafety's Weapon System Trainer (WST) and Training Systems portfolio for their virtualized/containerized deployment in a cloud environment. This role is well suited for a developer with a solid foundation in cloud deployment and cybersecurity procedures who is ready to deepen their expertise in government simulation standards and distributed synthetic environments.

Key Responsibilities

The JSE Cloud/Cyber architect integrates software/simulation components that connect FlightSafety training devices to the JSE via the Global Reusable Interface Domain (GRID) network protocol in a virtualized/cloud environment. This includes implementing message production and consumption logic, and verifying correct integration against a common data model. The engineer executes the a test harness suite of service active tests and supports Wireshark packet capture (.pcap) file parsing to validate data flow between the simulator and middleware services.

The developer supports SCARS compliance activities, including applying On Premise Equipment (OPE) integration standards under the SCARS Architecture Standard, Increment 5, and contributing to verification activities. The developer participates in Requirements Verification Report (RVR) activities and maintains traceability between implementation work and Interface Control Documents (ICDs) and Interface Design Documents (IDDs).

The JSE Cloud/Cyber architect contributes to the implementation and operation of the internal JSE/SCARS integration lab - both virtual and classified, as required - and builds DevSecOps pipelines for JSE/SCARS-related software deliverables, including version control, automated testing, and documentation in compliance with the SCARS DevSecOps Process Standard. The developer also supports the application of cybersecurity controls in accordance with the SCARS Common Security Controls Standard and coordinates with the cybersecurity team on Risk Management Framework (RMF) compliance activities.

The JSE Cloud/Cyber architect works closely with the JSE Architect and Project Lead to interpret SCARS and JSE documentation, implement design patterns, establish infrastructure protocols and document integration results. Travel to government test events is anticipated throughout the year.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in computer science, computer engineering, systems engineering, electrical engineering, or a closely related technical discipline. Masters preferred.
• 4 to 8 years of experience in simulation software development, system integration, or cloud systems engineering, preferably in a DoD training or defense context
• Proficiency in C++ and Python and various other Cloud APIs for simulation software development, integration and deployment
• Hands-on experience with software development tools including GitLab, JIRA, and CI/CD pipeline environments
• Proficiency in developing automated workflows in GitLab environment
• Experience with Infrastructure-as-Code frameworks like Ansible/Terraform
• Experience working with interface control documents (ICDs), interface design documents (IDDs), or similar technical specifications
• Ability to interpret technical standards and translate requirements into software implementations
• Strong written communication skills with ability to produce test reports, integration documentation, and compliance artifacts
• Experience with virtualization technologies and containerized deployment environments
• Exposure to RMF, ATO processes, or DoD cybersecurity compliance activities
• Familiarity with MBSE methodologies or SysML-based tools (e.g., Cameo Systems Modeler)
• Active Secret clearance

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with JSE, SCARS, GRID, or related government simulation frameworks and standards
• Exposure to SCARS Increment 5 standards

Why This Role

The JSE/SCARS life of efforts represents one of FlightSafety Defense Corporation's most strategically important investments in defense training systems. As a JSE Cloud/Cyber, you will work at the technical frontier of government synthetic environment standards, gaining hands-on experience with the architectures, protocols, cybersecurity and standards that define the next generation of joint warfighter training. You will be mentored by senior architects and positioned for growth as FSI Defense scales its portfolio across the USAF and Navy.
