About Calytrix

Calytrix Technologies is an Australian company specialising in the delivery of software, systems, and training support services to the Australian and international defence community. Calytrix has more than a decade of experience designing and delivering complex training events having delivered over 125 training activities involving military, government agencies, OGOs, UN agencies and emergency responders.

Calytrix has been intimately involved with ADF training since 2007 and remains an integral component of the HQ JOC joint and collective training capability. As part of our expanding role supporting the ADF we are increasing our simulation support capabilities to the ADF's new Core Simulation Capability (CSimC). This group, operating within the Joint Capability Training Branch will be responsible for delivering simulation services to make the Joint Collective Training environment as real and accessible as possible.

About Your Position: Simulation Data Modeller

Calytrix is seeking Simulation Data Modellers who will be responsible for the production, management, maintenance, and configuration of simulation models used to support ADF Joint Collective Training (JCT) activities. These positions will be available from January 2021 and are offered as full-time roles.

Working in the Joint Collective Training Branch (J7-JCTB) of Headquarters Joint Operations Command (HQJOC), the Simulation Data Modeller will work closely with the JCTB Joint Collective Training Directorate technical and plans teams to configure and test in-service simulation systems which are used as part of broader technical solutions to deliver training outcomes for simulation enable collective training activities. In this capacity the Simulation Data Modeller will:

  • Participate in the requirements gathering phases of exercise design and planning to determine the modelling requirements for each activity including 2D and 3D models and formats required.
  • Conduct analysis of existing model sets to determine applicability and derive new build requirements.
  • Engage relevant internal and external organisations to obtain applicable source data.
  • Be responsible to produce required models to meet overall exercise test and production requirements.
  • Participate in event functional and operational tests to validate the model sets.
  • Be responsible for the managing extant models for storage/archiving as well as production and maintenance of source data (functional specifications) relating to in service models.
  • Provide advice to exercise staff (technical and exercise plans teams) on the suitability of extant model sets to meet exercise training objectives.

About You

Successful candidiates will have:

  • Experience with common 2D and 3D production tools.
  • An ability to interpret source data (xml, CAD, etc.) to determine build requirements.
  • Experience with common model data formats.
  • Some knowledge of simulation protocols (particularly DIS and HLA) as well as experience with correlation of models across different target simulations.
  • Some knowledge of common military constructive and virtual simulation applications (JSAF, JCATS, etc.)
  • Hold a minimum Baseline Security Clearance (NV1 preferred) with an ability to upgrade to NV2.
  • The ability to travel within Australia and overseas in support of training planning and execution activities.
