OPPORTUNITY OVERVIEW:

We’re looking for a Modeling & Simulation Engineer II (mid-level) to help build next-generation digital twins and simulation frameworks for U.S. Space Force operational use cases. This role offers the opportunity to innovate on simulations that will influence mission processes and advance how the Space Force plans, tests, and executes operations.

EDUCATION AND CERTIFICATIONS:

At minimum, graduation from an accredited college or university with a bachelor’s degree in computer science, aerospace engineering or systems engineering, or a closely related technical field is required.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS:

• Two to Five years of professional experience in modeling, simulation, or digital twin development
• Experience with frameworks like Simulink, STK, or AnyLogic

• Experience with Python, C++, MATLAB, DevSecOps

  Preferred Qualifications:

• Hands-on experience with space mission analysis tools or defense M&S environments.

• Familiarity with cloud-based simulation environments, HPC, or GPU-accelerated modeling.
• Prior exposure to DoD, Space Force, or aerospace domain projects.
• Experience with logistics and/or supply chain modeling.
• Prior work in Agile software development environments.

COMPANY DESCRIPTION

Technergetics is a US-based company whose headquarters is in Utica, NY with employees throughout the country. The Utica/Rome area is a hub of cutting-edge cyber technology research, bolstered by the Griffiss Business & Technology Park’s tenants and facilities, including the Air Force Research Lab (AFRL). At Technergetics, we work with a wide variety of technologies, including mobile and web apps, Quantum computing, machine learning and artificial intelligence, AI-enabled edge devices, and many more.

The ideal candidate combines software development expertise, systems modeling experience, and familiarity with the space/defense domain. The Model and Simulation Engineer II will collaborate with engineers and operators to design, test, and refine models that directly support mission planning and decision-making. Daily tasking includes the following:

• Develop and integrate digital twin models of space platforms, ground systems, and mission workflows
• Run simulations and deliver insights for mission planning and decision-making
• Apply software engineering best practices (Python, C++, MATLAB, DevSecOps)
• Collaborate with engineers, operators, and DoD/Space Force partners
• Analyze system performance, run scenario-based simulations, and provide insights for mission planning.
• Document model architectures, assumptions, and results for technical and non-technical audiences
