Overview:
GovCIO is currently hiring for Advanced LVC Integration SME to develop and integrate high-fidelity platform, sensor, and weapon system models within Live, Virtual, and Constructive training environments. This role transforms digital engineering data into realistic physics-based simulations that support military training, mission rehearsal, and advanced system testing. This position will be located in Colorado Springs, CO and will be a onsite position.
Responsibilities:
Serves as a technical authority responsible for integrating advanced weapon systems, sensors, and platform models into Live, Virtual, and Constructive (LVC) training and simulation environments. This role translates digital engineering artifacts into high-fidelity simulation representations, ensuring realistic physics-based behaviors, sensor performance, and system interactions that support operational training, testing, and mission rehearsal objectives.
- Analyze digital engineering products, including CAD models, SysML architectures, FPGA/HDL designs, and system specifications to develop parameterized simulation models.
- Translate engineering data into constructive simulation environments such as BSI MACE/ARMOR or equivalent modeling frameworks.
- Develop and validate kinematic models supporting aircraft, missile, space, and orbital system behaviors.
- Design and implement sensor phenomenology models, including RF, radar, and electromagnetic spectrum effects.
- Support the integration of weapon systems and platform capabilities into LVC environments.
- Develop and validate Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) configurations to ensure realistic interaction between physical and simulated components.
- Collaborate with engineers, simulation developers, and government stakeholders to ensure technical accuracy and operational relevance.
- Conduct model verification, validation, and accreditation activities to support training and test objectives.
- Support the development of synthetic environments that accurately represent real-world system performance and operational conditions.
Qualifications:
Bachelor's with 12+ years (or commensurate experience)
