Full Stack Modeling and Simulation Software Engineer
About The Position
Booz Allen is hiring a full stack software engineer to build end-to-end software solutions supporting Modeling and Simulation (M&S), joint space operations, military exercises, and operational decision-making. The role designs, develops, configures, and maintains 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. It also develops operator-facing data views, workflow tools, and user interfaces that present simulation and exercise data for scenario management, training-audience interaction, and assessment. The engineer develops and maintains application services, APIs, adapters, and front-end integrations to ingest, display, and manage simulation outputs, exercise data, and approved external-system data. The role troubleshoots application functionality, data integration issues, and operational-display discrepancies during testing and exercises. It also designs and maintains scalable data flows and pipelines using Palantir Foundry and other applicable technologies, develops machine-to-machine interfaces, supports data federation, and implements data architectures that improve interoperability and automate exchanges between systems. Working with M&S planners, developers, and operational stakeholders, the engineer translates mission requirements into scalable technical solutions and applies emerging technologies, including AI/ML, to improve automation, analysis, and operational decision support. The position is onsite in Colorado Springs, Colorado, and requires an active TS/SCI clearance. Candidates must also complete a required skills assessment and meet its minimum proficiency threshold to continue in the hiring process.
