*Must be eligible to be submitted for a Top-Secret Clearance upon hire. 

AXIENT is seeking a Operational Energy M&S Web Development Engineer to join our team in the Orlando or Melbourne area. This can be a hybrid position.

We are looking for an individual with experience developing web pages and web-based applications for a position supporting the OSD Energy Innovation office in operational energy portfolios and related projects to develop multi-domain wargame software utilities, with particular attention to energy use and the Space domain.

Work will include some travel, estimated at 10% to 20% to various locations around the U.S.

Work may include overseas travel.

The objective is to develop and deploy a software augmentation tool supporting military wargames, which are executed by teams of dozens to hundreds of personnel responsible for planning actions of hundreds of assets over timescales ranging from hours to weeks. Moves are vetted, submitted, and adjudicated on a 24- to 48-hour cycle. Manual wargaming processes take up the bulk of this cycle and detract from operational planning. Software augmentation is desired to bring the move cycle under a threshold of 24 hours with an objective cycle less than twelve hours per move.

This individual will be supporting the OSD Operational Energy Innovation office, its various energy portfolios, the U.S. Space Force, and other tasks as assigned.

As requested, the candidate will provide recommendations regarding software technical and operational performance, risk, and suitability.  Specific efforts include but are not limited to: 

• Develop software solutions to aid dialogue and collaboration between military operators and military acquirers.

• Produce technical documentation to guide future development efforts.
• Supporting briefings and meetings as needed to meet OSD Operational Energy Innovation Office objectives.
• Support organizational meetings and associated communities of interest by coordinating, conducting, and documenting operational energy innovation research with particular emphasis on the Space Domain.
• Track completion of assigned actions and generate written/graphical materials and documents as required.
