Model-Based Systems Engineer

Develop , modify, and run high-fidelity simulations of space- related Command and Control ( C2 ) programs to inform modeling, wargaming, operational concepts and force design recommendations for the United States Space Force ( USSF ) . Identify elements of an entire C2 architecture and apply analytical met hods and tools using Python, MATLAB, government sof tware such as Advanced Framework for Simulation, Integration, Modeling ( AFSIM ) , or other internal modeling and simulation platforms. Develop new tools, scripts, and simulator features to improve operational scenario generation, data analysis, and simulation capability. Analyze USSF designs, requirements, research system technical details, and t race existing models to understand strengths and limitations of sof tware tools. Leverage expertise in space operations and joint operations to merge models into wargame simulations. Collaborate with subject matter experts spe cia lizing in Space Domain Awareness, Satellite Communications, and Orbital Warfare to develop comprehensive operational scenarios and detailed vignettes that systematically break down C2 architecture operations. Perform quantitative analysis of simulation outputs, Measures of Performance ( MOPs ) , Measures of Effectiveness ( MOEs ) , timelines, attrition, and mission outcomes.
