Cyber Range Event Engineer

Position Overview

The Cyber Range Event Engineer is a key member of the Event Engineering Team (EET), responsible for designing, deploying, and managing realistic test environments that replicate operational IT systems and weapon platforms on the NCR range. This role is not a cybersecurity or red team position, it requires a strong foundation in systems engineering, infrastructure integration, and the ability to translate mission requirements into deployable systems across a wide range of test scenarios.

Key Responsibilities

• Work with event sponsors and range users to define technical and operational objectives
• Design and implement integrated test environments using traditional IT systems, tactical networks, weapon systems, and representative mission components
• Lead the deployment of physical and virtualized systems (compute, network, storage, C2, sensors, etc.) that align with test objectives
• Coordinate across engineering teams to ensure environment readiness and interoperability
• Create environment design documents, deployment plans, and technical briefings for stakeholders
• Support live event execution by managing system configuration, troubleshooting, and real-time adjustments
• Capture environment lessons learned to drive repeatability and improvement
