## Description

MTSI is seeking a AFSIM (Advanced Framework for Simulation, Integration, and Modeling) Developer/Analyst to design, implement, and analyze mission-level simulations supporting advanced DoD systems and CONOPS development. The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience extending AFSIM through scenario scripting, highfidelity subsystem modeling, analytic workflows, and C++ plugin development. This role involves building and integrating complex models for sensors, weapons, communications, and decision logic into scalable simulation architectures to evaluate system performance and mission effectiveness., * Architect, develop, and maintain AFSIM models, plugins, and simulation components to support advanced missionlevel analyses.

 * Develop custom AFSIM behaviors, algorithms, and decision models (tasking logic, autonomy, federated multidomain behaviors, etc.).
 * Integrate external data sources (threat models, performance data, signatures, environmental models) to improve simulation fidelity.
 * Analyze simulation results and extract actionable insights and recommendations to stakeholders.
 * Collaborate with engineers, analysts, and subject matter experts to define simulation requirements and scenarios.
 * Integrate new capabilities, algorithms, and data into AFSIM models to enhance simulation fidelity.
 * Document simulation processes, methodologies, and results in technical reports and presentations.
 * Support briefings and discussions with customers and stakeholders.
