Job Description

Insight Global is seeking a JLVC Systems Engineer to support a federal client in Suffolk, VA. This team focuses on modernizing the Joint Live, Virtual, and Constructive (JLVC) training environment by integrating new simulation technologies into real-world joint force and combatant command exercises. They work closely with operational users and technical stakeholders to test, prototype, and insert emerging capabilities into live training events, making sure new tools actually support how the military trains and operates. The goal is to bridge the gap between technology and operations—reducing integration friction, capturing user feedback, and accelerating the adoption of new training capabilities across the joint force.

Essential Job Responsibilities:

· Support the integration of modernization initiatives into JLVC supported Joint Force training and CCMD exercises.

· Collaborate with the MITT team to provide technical insight and recommendations to internal and external stakeholders.

· Maintain situational awareness of emerging training technologies, including simulations, models, and tools, and assess their applicability to JLVC environments.

· Facilitate stakeholder engagement to ensure modernization efforts incorporate operational user feedback and requirements.

· Assist in the planning, coordination, and execution of technology insertions into live, virtual, and constructive training events.

· Translate technical capabilities into operationally relevant use cases to support training objectives.

· Identify gaps, risks, and dependencies associated with integrating new technologies into existing JLVC architectures.

· Support rapid prototyping, testing, and evaluation of new capabilities in exercise environments.

· Coordinate with overtasked technical planning teams to streamline integration processes and reduce operational burden.

· Contribute to documentation, briefings, and reporting to inform decision-makers on modernization progress and impacts.

· Enable education, training, and adoption of new capabilities by end users and stakeholders.

Compensation:

$45/hr to $50/hr.

Exact compensation may vary based on several factors, including skills, experience, and education.
