Job description

Job Description

Insight Global is seeking a Simulation Software Integration Engineer to support Fighter In A Box (FIAB) capabilities for F 22 and/or F 35 synthetic environments. This role supports Modeling, Simulation, and Training (M&S) at Nellis AFB, NV.

As part of an on site engineering team, you will help deliver high end Advanced Tactics, Training, and Test capability for Government personnel operating under USAFWC/ACC by supporting the development, refinement, and integration of FIAB software within the JSE architecture. This role is focused on software integration, troubleshooting, and enhancement of complex simulation systems, rather than general simulator operations.

Key Job Responsibilities

Provide on site support for the 31st Combat Training Squadron’s JSE training systems at Nellis AFB. As a member of the JSE Engineering Team, you will focus on the troubleshooting, configuration, optimization, and development of the F 22 and/or F 35 FIAB for advanced synthetic test and training environments within JSE at the JITTC N. Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

• Support daily FIAB operations by monitoring system performance and ensuring stable execution within JSE.
• Troubleshoot FIAB issues by reviewing FIAB source code and/or JSE Platform Plugin (JPP) source code.
• Integrate FIAB mission system models, sensor models, software interfaces, and avionics behaviors into the JSE simulation environment.
• Develop enhancements, resolve defects, and optimize FIAB software performance within distributed or real time simulation architectures.
• Integrate FIAB capabilities with other JSE and non JSE platforms across synthetic training and test environments.
• Assist with accurately documenting, reporting, and tracking deficiencies related to FIAB and JPP components.
• Collaborate with engineers, operators, and Government SMEs to support reliable, high fidelity synthetic test and training capabilities.

Nice to Have Skills & Experience

• Software development experience with FIAB source code (F 22 and/or F 35) or JSE Platform Plugin code.
• Experience integrating simulation software with external systems, sensors, networks, mission systems models, or other platform components.
• Experience with Joint Simulation Environment (JSE), Live Virtual Constructive (LVC), or DoD synthetic training systems.
• Background with distributed simulation middleware such as DIS, HLA, or DDS.
• Experience modeling or integrating 5th generation fighter mission systems, avionics, sensor fusion, or LO synthetic behaviors.
• Experience optimizing performance in high fidelity, real time synthetic environments.

Qualifications

• 5 years relevant experience with Bachelors in related field; 3 years relevant experience with Masters in related field; 0 years experience with PhD or Juris Doctorate in related field; or High School Diploma or equivalent and 9 years relevant experience.
• Experience in software development and software design.
• Experience integrating complex software systems or simulation components in distributed or real time environments.
• Ability to modify, debug, and troubleshoot C++ and/or Python source code within simulation frameworks.
• Experience working with software interfaces, middleware, plug ins, APIs, or data models used to connect simulation components.
