AFSIM Developer (Secret Required | TS/SCI Preferred) - Crane, IN Zachary Piper Solutions is seeking an AFSIM Developer in Crane, Indiana to support advanced modeling and simulation efforts for the U.S. Navy by developing, integrating, and enhancing AFSIM-based capabilities supporting multi-domain operations. This position is focused on software development, model engineering, and simulation framework integration rather than operational analysis. This individual must obtain an active Secret clearance or higher.

Key Responsibilities:

Develop, customize, and integrate models within the AFSIM framework. Design and implement simulation capabilities using Python, C/C++, and MATLAB. Build and maintain threat models, flight path models, and Electronic Warfare (EW) effects within simulation environments. Support Electromagnetic Spectrum Operations (EMSO) and strategic deterrence modeling initiatives. Perform model integration, testing, validation, and verification activities. Collaborate with Navy warfare centers, national laboratories, and industry partners to deliver advanced modeling and simulation solutions. Contribute to rapid prototyping and development of next-generation simulation capabilities.

Required Qualifications:

Active Secret clearance with the ability to obtain and maintain higher-level access. Hands-on experience developing within AFSIM or similar modeling and simulation environments. Strong programming experience with Python, C/C++, and/or MATLAB. Experience with M&S tools such as AFSIM, STK, NGTS, or Builder. Background in software development, systems engineering, and model integration. Experience with model validation, verification, and testing. Security+ CE or equivalent certification.

Preferred Qualifications:

Active TS/SCI clearance. Experience supporting EMSO, Electronic Warfare (EW), or Nuclear Triad modeling efforts. Knowledge of threat modeling, mission-level simulation, and flight path development. Experience with rapid prototyping and advanced defense R D environments. Prior experience supporting DoD laboratories, warfare centers, or military simulation programs.
