AFSIM Framework Developer | Trailblazer

Job Title

AFSIM Framework Developer | The Trailblazer

Dayton, Ohio

Who You Are: Like Lewis and Clark, this role requires you to navigate situations and blaze a new trail. You will forge new framework capabilities to move the mission forward. The maps you create will help future developers and modelers navigate rough terrain and even the occasional black hole. You understand that charting a course is more than following a compass.

Similarly, you understand that the software you develop must be more than a nice-looking UI; you develop efficient code, documented APIs, and follow established architectural patterns. When forging your trial, you must balance providing capabilities at the speed of relevance with the pursuit of perfection. Much like GPS has changed the way we navigate today, you will change how users interact with AFSIM using the latest architectural approaches, open-source tools, and custom developed code to deliver complete solutions to address user needs.

Just like the intrepid explorers of the early American West, you will need to manage your time, resources, and relationships to reach your destination. Along the way you will build relationships, representing AFSIM to that user community much like Lewis and Clark represented the U.S. on their trek. Your mission, if you choose to accept it, will provide you with the opportunity to embark on a journey developing AFSIM ensuring our continued national security.
