Responsibilities

Develop and test Software (C++ and/or Scripting) to manipulate software models to simulate realistic failures to be used as training scenarios. (Will require a certain amount of research and some understanding of electrical/mechanical/ fluids systems)

Develop Software (C++ and/or Scripting) to manipulate software models to configure the simulation to various states in a timely manner. In both a standalone and integrated environment

Develop Software (C++ and/or Scripting) to enhance software models as needed to provide a more realistic appearance where model fidelity might be lacking

Interface with systems engineers to understand how the flight and ground hardware elements work. (Will require a certain amount of research from existing documentation)

Integrate the model development with the GFAS Ground launch Sequencer to produce effective Launch Count Down Simulations

Coordinate with the NASA Launch Director, the Launch Project Engineer and GSDO system engineers to develop problem scenarios from the SLS Launch Commit Criteria and other requirement sources

Work closely within the Simulation Training Team to prepare, debug and execute a full Operational Training Event

Perform other duties as assigned
