Secret Software Engineer

Insight Global is seeking a Software Engineer to support Army Aviation modeling, simulation, experimentation, and capability development efforts. This individual will leverage strong C++ development experience to develop, modify, integrate, and execute software within military simulation environments used to evaluate aviation platforms, weapons systems, sensors, networks, and emerging capabilities., Develop, modify, integrate, and maintain C++ software supporting military modeling and simulation environments. Design and implement software capabilities used to model and evaluate military systems, operational scenarios, and mission outcomes. Develop and modify models, simulation components, and mission scenarios within military simulation platforms such as AFSIM, VR-Forces, NGTS, EADSIM, ITASE, OneSAF, JSAF, or comparable environments. Configure and execute simulation scenarios and run sets to evaluate system performance and mission effectiveness. Develop software integrations, simulation extensions, plug-ins, and other custom capabilities as required. Use Python as a companion language for data processing, statistical analysis, automation, and post-processing of simulation results. Develop scripts and analytical tools that automate simulation execution, data collection, processing, and analysis. Support modeling of aviation platforms, weapons, sensors, missile systems, radar, electronic warfare capabilities, command-and-control networks, and related military systems. Analyze simulation outputs to identify trends, compare system configurations, and support quantitative assessments. Collaborate with software engineers, systems engineers, analysts, and Army Aviation subject matter experts to translate operational requirements into executable simulation capabilities. Troubleshoot, debug, test, and improve simulation software and supporting tools. Support software and model verification, validation, testing, and quality assurance activities. Document software configurations, model assumptions, source data, interfaces, inputs, methodologies, and analytical results. Develop technical reports, presentations, visualizations, and briefing materials that communicate simulation results and findings to technical and government stakeholders.

The ideal candidate will have strong professional C++ experience along with experience coding within military simulation environments such as AFSIM, VR-Forces, Next Generation Threat System (NGTS), EADSIM, ITASE, OneSAF, JSAF, or comparable platforms. Direct AFSIM experience is not required. Python is highly valued as a companion language, particularly for data processing and statistical analysis related to simulation outputs., Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Systems Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related technical field. 7+ years of professional experience supporting software development, modeling and simulation, engineering, analysis, or related technical efforts. Strong professional C++ development experience. Experience developing, modifying, integrating, or executing simulation software, models, or mission scenarios. Strong analytical and problem-solving skills. Ability to collaborate effectively with engineers, analysts, and operational subject matter experts. Strong technical documentation and communication skills. Active Secret Security Clearance.
