Onsite role at Fort Hood, Texas (Killeen area)
OneArc builds the Embedded Collective Trainer (ECT), a kit-based training capability that turns a combat vehicle crew's own vehicle into a high-fidelity simulator . The ECT integrates a ruggedized compute kit and the VBS4 virtual environment directly with the vehicle's mission systems, letting drivers, gunners, and commanders train together in the motor pool on the displays they fight with—without ammunition, fuel, or range time .
The Program
OneArc is supporting the U.S. Army at Fort Hood, Texas, as part of the Army's Transformation in Contact (TiC) initiative. Over a 13-month period of performance (1 September 2026 to 30 September 2027, with potential for follow-on work),
OneArc will install, operate, and sustain ECT kits across Bradley platoons (M2A3/4 vehicles plus spares) of an armored brigade combat team, deliver new equipment training to crews, and provide embedded on-site support through gunnery densities and field training events . The kits run the VBS4 virtual environment and the Bradley Conduct of Fires Training (BCOFT) standalone application .
About the Role
The Mission Integration Specialist (MIS) is OneArc's technical presence with the supported unit . The MIS installs and validates ECT kits on Bradley Fighting Vehicles, trains crews and master gunners, keeps the fleet of kits mission-capable through ongoing preventive maintenance and rapid hot-swap, and supports training events on the unit's calendar . The role is hands-on and customer-facing: most days are spent in the motor pool with Soldiers, on vehicles, and in the training environment, with reachback to OneArc engineering for depot repair and software support .

Field Support & Maintenance: Provide on-site duty-day support for embedded training across both platoons, troubleshooting hardware and software faults at the vehicle .
Sustainment & Hot-Swap: Perform ongoing preventive maintenance across the kit set, execute hot-swap replacement of degraded kits within one duty day, and coordinate depot-level repairs .
Surge & Event Support: Provide surge support for gunnery densities, situational training exercises, and other events on the supported unit's training calendar .
Stakeholder Coordination: Serve as the daily technical interface with the unit and the Contracting Officer's Representative; coordinate schedules, vehicle access, and event support .
