Job Description:

CALIBRE Systems, Inc., an Employee-Owned Management Consulting and Digital Transformation company, is seeking a Modeling and Simulation Analyst to collaborate with a team of analysts in the research, creation, modeling, and analysis of military systems to quantify the performance and impact of operational concepts and tactics. Utilizes knowledge of model-based system engineering (MBSE) to perform analysis to support requirements definition, mission effectiveness, system evaluation, and military utility assessment for a broad spectrum of missions including combat air, intelligence-surveillance-reconnaissance, and air mobility. The job is to provide support to the United States Marine Corps MAGTF Staff Training Program (MSTP) which provides training in MAGTF across the range of military operations, within the context of a Joint and/or Combined Task Force environment, to improve the warfighting skills, with the main effort of providing training and support.



Tasks include:

Create (new) and or modify (existing) and install databases for the C2 and Simulation systems for MSTP exercises, training events, wargames.
Continuous proficiency installing, configuring, operating, troubleshooting, and maintaining the virtual and constructive simulation systems used most by MSTP: MAGTF Tactical Warfare Simulation System (MTWS), Joint Deployment Logistics Model (JDLM), and Air, Space and Cyberspace Constructive Environment - Information Operations Suite (ACE-IOS) as part of the JLVC Federation
Capable of installing, configuring, operating, troubleshooting, and maintaining other virtual and constructive simulation systems that are used less commonly by MSTP, or used by MSTP to enhance exercises such as: Joint Low Overhead Driver (JLOD), Joint Land Component Constructive Training Capability (JLCCTC), Low, Overhead Training Simulation (LOTS), Joint Semi-Automated Forces (JSAF), Air Warfare Simulation (AWSIM), Warfighter Simulation (WARSIM), etc.
Install and configure software version updates, system configuration changes or other updates needed to maintain concurrency between the training unit's C2 systems and MSTP.
Install patches and updates to C2 and simulation systems, ensuring compliance with password, other system security measures, and cybersecurity policy and orders.
Make recommendations to exercise designers on the appropriate simulation(s)/simulation architecture(s) necessary to achieve exercise objectives and training goals.
Prepare written simulation control plans for all MSTP exercises/training events/wargames.
Provide functional area expertise (Maneuver, Fires (Ground/Air), Intelligence, Logistics, Command & Control, and Force Protection) Instructor Controllers (ICs).
Become familiar with the training audience's OPORD to facilitate response cell operations.
Participate in structured orders development and rehearsals to ensure an accurate representation of the training audience's operations in simulation models.
Use the functional knowledge of MCPP and MAGTF doctrine to ensure the information in the model is an accurate representation of the training audience's requirements to fulfill the training objectives.
Establish simulation federations and databases to accurately represent all forces and interactions.
Conduct operational testing and testing to evaluate simulation database and parametric data (weapons, equipment, personnel, and complex asset performance within the simulation), including the ADFOR, and ensure that models are accurate representations of forces for exercises, training events, and wargames.
Provide training to the Subordinate Unit Response Cells (SURCs) on modeling and simulation procedures and workarounds monitoring adherence to these procedures.
Maintain the simulation networks and architecture to ensure all nodes are properly stimulating the training audience in compliance with exercise plans and the Simulation Control Plan.
Recommend simulation event adjudications and mitigation actions to resolve simulation or event discrepancies during MSTP exercises, training events, and wargames.
Submit comments on exercise issues and their recommended corrections for inclusion into the M&S after action report (AAR).
Supporting capability document development and analysis



Required Skills

U.S. Citizen
Security clearance with an adjudicated clearance and access up to TS/SCI security clearance.
Capable of providing support for federating constructive simulations using the MAGTF Tactical Warfare Simulation (MTWS), Joint Live Virtual Constructive (JLVC), Joint Semi-Automated Forces (JSAF), Joint Deployment Logistics Model (JDLM), and Air, Space and Cyberspace Constructive Environment - Information Operations Suite (ACE-IOS).
Ability to provide operational knowledge of multiple simulations and federations constructing Parametric Data, Order of Battle (OOB), Equipment Density List (EDL), and Table of Organization (TO) that replicate functional capabilities across Warfighting function and span the levels of war.
Proficient in the use and operation of the C2 and simulation systems
Certifications in Linux, A+, Network+, VM Ware, and Security+.
Exceptional verbal and written communication and organization skills
Proficiency in MS Office products
Must be able to travel CONUS and OCONUS

Preferred Skills:

Current Top-Secret clearance and eligibility for Sensitive compartmented Information (SCI)



Required Experience

1-3 years direct relevant experience



Required Education:

Bachelor's Degree from an accredited school by a national or regional accrediting agency recognized by the U.S. Department of Education.
