Modeling & Simulation Specialist | AFSIM Gunslinger

Location:

Albuquerque, New Mexico

Much like your counterparts in the Old West, you are not one to be trifled with. You’re as fearsome as Billy the Kid and as good a shot as Annie Oakley. Your instincts are unrivaled and your brand of justice final. Your weapons of choice; math, multi‑lingual programming languages, and caffeine…lots of caffeine.

At Infinity Labs, we don’t settle for incremental gains—we make bold leaps, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible. Our culture thrives on innovation, where creativity fuels action, and inspiration sparks breakthroughs. We don’t just embrace calculated risks; we see them as essential steps toward groundbreaking discoveries. We're on a mission to become the epicenter of transformational, multidisciplinary, system‑of‑systems technology solutions, strategically aligned with the National Defense Strategy.

But our vision isn’t just about technology—it’s about you. Our structure and benefits are designed to protect your future and unleash your full potential. Join us if you're ready to make a real impact and redefine the future.

• Configure digital representations of complex military systems to support operational utility, asset vulnerability, system integration, and concept of operations assessments within a synthetic simulation environment.
• Work with domain experts to understand the nuances of specific systems (or classes of systems) and use abstraction techniques to model them at the mission‑level.
• Assemble known information when available and use engineering judgement to fill in the blanks to represent real world hardware, software, or processes used in military operations.
• Manage your time effectively and interface with customers regularly. In addition, beyond simply meeting project milestones and deadlines, the ideal candidate sees modeling & simulation as a tool to empower decision makers and provides capabilities at the speed of relevance rather than endlessly pursuing “the perfect model”.
• Coordinate with other model specialist and developers to plug capabilities into a greater system‑of‑systems environment used to analyze large scale mission vignettes. In the process, you will become a subject matter expert in the system types that you model.
• If this position is listed as onsite, you will regularly collaborate with teammates and/or clients in person.

• Modify simulation frameworks to add functionality required to fully assess models and scenarios.
• Develop new software plug‑ins to increase simulation framework capability.

• Minimum 2+ years of experience using the Advanced Framework for Simulation, Integration, and Modeling (AFSIM) to model systems and systems of systems.
• Verifiable experience supporting government (military) programs.
• Proficiency in applying modeling & simulation techniques to support the decision‑making process.
• For AFSIM Developer candidates, industry experience with C++ development (preferably with C++ 11 or higher).

• Advanced degree in math, physics, or engineering.
• Familiarity with using a high‑level language such as Python, MATLAB/Simulink, or Julia.
• Familiarity with the AFSIM community and know where to find data/POCs if needed.
• Experience modifying the AFSIM framework through the development of new plugins.
• Deep understanding of the World Simulation Framework.
• You can explain what a component‑based architecture is.
• You understand the terms native model, plugin, extension, command syntax, and scripting in an AFSIM context.
• You can explain what an Application, Scenario, and Simulation are and why they are important.
• Experience with other mission‑level simulation frameworks.

• BS or BA degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related STEM field.
• US Citizenship is required for consideration, as this job requires a US government security clearance. Acceptable – No current clearance but eligibility to obtain.

• Must be able to remain in a stationary position and work on a computer for prolonged periods.
