Desired Qualifications: * Active TS/SCI clearance. * Deep familiarity with AFSIM architecture, scripting, and plugin development. * Experience integrating AFSIM with mission-level or constructive simulation environments. * Knowledge of electronic warfare, RF systems, or spectrum operations. * Experience with MBSE tools (e.g., SysML, Cameo, MagicDraw). * Strong ability to communicate complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences. MUST HAVES AFSIM-NOT just a user, a developer Modeling & Simulation (M&S) Engineering/Design Experience NICE TO HAVES Electronic Warfare (EW) experience MBSE (Model-Based Systems Engineering) STK Development in Matlab/C++ ## Description The Amatriot Group is seeking a Senior AFSIM Engineer to support Modeling & Simulation (M&S) efforts in support of a US Navy program. This role is focused on developing, customizing, and leading AFSIM-based solutions in support of Electronic Warfare (EW) and Electromagnetic Spectrum Operations (EMSO). This is not a user-level role-the ideal candidate will serve as a technical leader, driving the development of advanced simulation architectures, custom models, and mission-level analysis capabilities. The position requires strong engineering judgment, hands-on AFSIM development expertise, and the ability to lead small teams and interface directly with government stakeholders., * Lead the design, development, and implementation of custom AFSIM solutions to support mission analysis and system evaluation. * Serve as a technical lead for AFSIM-based efforts, providing guidance to junior engineers and analysts. * Develop and extend custom models, behaviors, and plugins within AFSIM to meet evolving mission requirements. * Architect and execute complex simulation scenarios supporting EW, EMSO, and multi-domain operations. * Integrate AFSIM with other modeling and analysis tools (e.g., STK, NGTS, Builder, or other mission-level frameworks). * Analyze simulation outputs and provide actionable insights, technical reports, and briefings to government stakeholders. * Collaborate with cross-functional teams to align modeling efforts with system requirements and operational objectives. * Apply programming expertise (Python, C++, or similar) to support automation, data processing, and tool integration. * Support model-based systems engineering (MBSE) activities where applicable. ## Related Videos - [Maturity assessment for technicians or how I learned to love OWASP SAMM](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/351-maturity-assessment-for-technicians-or-how-i-learned-to-love-owasp-samm) - [JavaScript?
