Solutions Architect-Technologist

Responsibilities

• Serves as a senior technical advisor responsible for designing, integrating, and validating complex Modeling and Simulation (M&S) environments that support military education, training, and operational planning objectives.
• Bridges operational requirements and technical implementation by translating Joint doctrine, military planning concepts, and tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) into scalable system architectures, simulation environments, and realistic training scenarios.
• Collaborates closely with government stakeholders, military subject matter experts, and technical teams to develop innovative solutions that enhance operational readiness and support informed decision-making.
• Analyzes existing Modeling and Simulation (M&S) infrastructures and designs scalable system-of-systems architectures that support evolving mission requirements.
• Identifies technical gaps, evaluates emerging technologies and market solutions, and recommends architectural approaches that balance capability, cost, and risk.
• Translates operational military planning, Joint doctrine, and TTPs into simulation requirements, scenario designs, and technical execution plans.
• Ensures simulation architectures accurately represent Joint and Combined operational environments and support training objectives.
• Advise government leadership on the operational realism and doctrinal accuracy of M&S environments.
• Design and develop tiered training exercises ranging from tactical-level operations to operational-level Joint Air Operations Center (JAOC) activities.
• Collaborate with technical, operational, and educational stakeholders to align simulation capabilities with desired learning outcomes.
• Support the development of modernization roadmaps, technical documentation, and architectural standards.
• Evaluate risks, dependencies, and integration challenges associated with complex simulation ecosystems.
• Provide technical leadership for the design, integration, and delivery of advanced simulation, wargaming, and training solutions.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's with 12+ years (or commensurate experience)
• Demonstrated ability to analyze existing technical infrastructures and develop scalable system-of-systems architectures.
• Experience identifying technical gaps, assessing solution alternatives, and developing architectural recommendations that support government decision-making.
• Ability to translate operational military planning, Joint doctrine, and TTPs into simulation requirements and technical solution designs.
• Experience ensuring doctrinal accuracy and operational realism within Modeling and Simulation environments.
• Experience designing and executing military training exercises and simulation-based learning activities.
• Knowledge of systems integration, enterprise architecture, and complex technical environments.
• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and strategic planning skills.
