Full Stack Modeling and Simulation Software Engineer

Booz Allen Hamilton • Colorado Springs, CO

6d • $69,300 - $158,000

About The Position

As a full stack developer, you will deliver end-to-end software solutions in an agile environment supporting 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 develop 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 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. You will troubleshoot application functionality, data integration issues, and operational-display discrepancies during testing and exercise events. You will also design, develop, and maintain scalable data flows and pipelines using Palantir Foundry and other applicable technologies, develop machine-to-machine (M2M) interfaces, support data federation, and implement scalable data architectures for interoperability and automated data exchange.

You will collaborate with M&S planners, developers, and operational stakeholders to translate mission requirements into scalable technical solutions. You will leverage emerging technologies, including AI/ML, to improve automation, analytical capabilities, and operational decision support. The work contributes to the realism, effectiveness, and execution of joint military exercises and to future M&S capabilities.
