Modeling and Simulation (M&S) Analyst
Must be a U.S citizen
Security Clearance: Secret
Job Summary
The Marine Corps Tactics and Operations Group (MCTOG) mission is to provide standardized advanced training and certification to Ground Combat Element (GCE) Operations Officers, Operations Chiefs, and select other GCE training specialists in GCE operations, combined arms planning and integration, and unit readiness planning at the company, battalion, and regiment levels to support GCE Training and Readiness (T&R) events.
The Modeling and Simulation (M&S) Analyst will collect information from the MCTOG staff for exercise simulation requirements from Staff Studies, Exercise Working Groups, Unit Training Execution and Employment Plan (TEEP), and Planning Conferences. The accumulated information will be used to drive the M&S team in creating a virtual synthetic training environment. The virtual training environment supports real world training immersion into environments of deploying units. Furthermore, analyze simulation models which allow a training unit to exercise specified T&R tasks. The specified tasks encapsulate a broad spectrum of combat, expeditionary, and enabling operations in unilateral, joint, and coalition campaigns. This capability is significant in allowing high echelon staffs to rehearse battle staff operations.
