Full Stack Modeling and Simulation Software Engineer

Booz Allen Hamilton•Colorado Springs, CO

About The Position

As a full stack developer, you will deliver end-to-end software solutions in a fast-paced, agile environment, developing applications and systems that support military readiness and operational capabilities. At Booz Allen, you will apply software development and systems integration expertise to advance Modeling and Simulation (M&S) capabilities for joint space operations, military exercises, and operational decision-making. You will design, develop, configure, and maintain web-based exercise management applications, dashboards, and decision-support tools for exercise control, Master Scenario Events List (MSEL) management, inject tracking, white-cell coordination, assessment, and after-action review. You will create operator-facing data views, workflow tools, and user interfaces that present simulation and exercise data in operationally relevant formats for scenario management, training-audience interaction, and assessment. You will also build and maintain application services, APIs, adapters, and front-end integrations to ingest, display, and manage simulation outputs, exercise data, and approved external-system data. During tests and exercises, you will troubleshoot application functionality, data integration issues, and operational-display discrepancies to support reliable performance and data accessibility. You will design, develop, and maintain scalable data flows and pipelines using Palantir Foundry and other applicable technologies. This work will enable integration, transformation, and accessibility of data across M&S platforms and operational systems. You will develop machine-to-machine (M2M) interfaces, support data federation, and implement scalable data architectures that improve interoperability and automate exchanges between disparate systems. You will collaborate with M&S planners, developers, and operational stakeholders to translate mission requirements into scalable technical solutions. You will also leverage emerging technologies, including AI/ML, to improve automation, analytical capabilities, and operational decision support. Your work will contribute to joint military exercise realism, effectiveness, and execution, while helping establish a foundation for future M&S capabilities.
