You will serve as the Integrated Battlespace Simulation and Test Department Head - Advanced Simulation Applications Senior Scientific Technical Manager (SSTM) for the Integrated Battlespace Simulation and Test Department Digital Analytics, Infrastructure, and Technology Advancement (DAiTA) Group, Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division (NAWCAD).
The applicant is to provide a separate narrative statement which describes fully, but concisely, how his/her experience supports each of the following Mandatory Technical Qualifications. Each technical qualification narrative should not exceed 2 pages. Failure to address these specific qualifications in a separate narrative statement will eliminate you from consideration: 1. Subject Matter Expert (SME) in advanced methods for installed system testing, advanced mission systems sensor test and evaluation, and advanced simulation applications, architectures, and development. Demonstrated ability to deliver outcomes while maintaining needed relationships. 2. Ability to negotiate complex solutions within specialty areas for advanced modeling and simulation systems and installed systems test capabilities with stakeholders with emphasis on positive discourse, mutual trust and respect. 3. Demonstrated ability to provide leadership to develop, influence and implement advanced modeling and simulation systems and installed systems test capabilities that will integrate with key programmatic, DON, and DoD policies and goals and lead change in areas where needed. 4. Demonstrates ability to recruit, retain, and lead a large personnel team to ensure NAWCAD advanced modeling and simulation systems and installed systems test capabilities execute with a sound engineering basis with proper controls and management of readiness risk. 5. Determines resource requirements and tasks execution of resources to enable successful outcomes for advanced modeling and simulation systems and installed systems test capabilities. Additional qualification information can be found from the following Office of Personnel Management website: https://www.opm.gov/policy-data-oversight/classification-qualifications/general-schedule-qualification-standards/#url=GS-PROF AND 800 Professional Engineering Series 1310 Physics Series 1520 Mathematics Series 1550 Computer Science Series Experience refers to paid and unpaid experience, including volunteer work done through National Service programs (e.g., professional, philanthropic, religious, spiritual, community, student, social). Volunteer work helps build critical competencies, knowledge, and skills and can provide valuable training and experience that translates directly to paid employment.
