About The Position

The Integration Engineering Project Lead with support the Joint Simulation Environment (JSE) at the Joint Integrated Test and Training Center – Nellis (JITTC‑N). This hybrid role blends technical integration, project leadership, and hands‑on engineering support to coordinate complex, multi‑classification Modeling & Simulation (M&S) systems used across the DoD. You will guide engineering teams, delegate technical tasks, and step in directly on networking or software integration work when needed. Impact Your leadership ensures seamless, high‑fidelity connectivity across distributed simulators that directly support warfighter readiness. You will help shape next‑generation synthetic training environments, improve system performance, and maintain mission‑critical reliability for joint test and training operations while also supporting future business development and capture efforts.
