Simulation Content Engineer

At Omnia Training, we’ve brought together some of the UK’s most innovative defence training organisations under one powerful mission: to transform the British Army’s training system and create the best-trained Army in the world.

Omnia Training is redefining the British Army’s collective training. To do that, we are looking for the best and brightest minds from across the UK. Omnia Training is at the heart of the UK’s bold Land Industrial Strategy.

This is more than a job — it’s a mission. You will be part of a high-impact, collaborative environment, where every person in our team plays a critical role in delivering Omnia Training’s vision; designing, delivering, and transforming collective training.

Please note that this role will require onsite working in Warminster. Due to the nature of this role, Skyral can only consider applications from candidates who live in the UK and are eligible for SC clearance.

What You’ll Be Responsible For:

• Managing the Content Catalogue, the central repository of all synthetic content used by Omnia Training

• Operate the GitOps-driven content ecosystem, ensuring all content is governed across its full lifecycle.

• Create, manage, and maintain content metadata descriptions (using content cards).

• Ensure all content is correctly versioned (with full history retained), tagged, searchable, and linked to source data and provenance.

• Engage with suppliers to support their provision of required metadata.

• Ensure all content is correctly versioned, tagged and searchable, linked to source data and provenance.

• Operate Git-based workflows: branching, reviews, release preparation, and promotion.

• Manage OCI artefacts: packaging content, versioning artefacts, linking artefacts to content cards.

• Support content ingestion from third parties, other catalogues, and internal modelling teams.

• Support release process: Validate completeness of metadata, ensure dependencies are resolved, and confirm readiness for deployment.

• Work closely with engineers to ensure that content is usable in compositions, that metadata reflects actual systems behaviour and that dependencies are correctly defined.

• Act as the governance control point, ensuring standards are upheld without blocking delivery unnecessarily.

Act as the governance control point, ensuring standards are upheld without blocking delivery unnecessarily.

What We Are Looking For:

Ideal candidates will likely have experience in the training simulation domain and understand the types of content that the Catalogue will hold.

You will operate a content ecosystem tightly integrated with our software development tools, ensuring that models, data, and simulation components are correctly described, governed, versioned, and ready for use in real systems.




• Highly organised and detail-oriented.

• Strong sense of ownership over data quality and governance.

• Comfortable working with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

• Curious and investigative, able to research external content sources.

• Pragmatic, able to balance governance with delivery pace.

• Communicates clearly and pushes back when standards are not met.

• Comfortable working with modern engineering tooling and cloud-native concepts.

Key Technical Proficiencies:

A solid working understanding of modelling and simulation, including different types of models and associated data sets, and how these are used in training systems.

Strong understanding of metadata management and data governance principles, and content lifecycle management.

Experience defining and enforcing metadata standards, classification schemes and versioning strategies.

Hands-on experience with Git including branching strategies, pull requests, code reviews and release workflows.

Understanding of GitOps principles and using Git as a control and governance mechanism.

Understanding of OCI registries and artefact storage, including linking content definitions to versioned artefacts.

Comfortable working with JSON/YAML, Kubernetes, Docker, Helm, CLI-based tooling.

Ability to work in a cloud-native environment and understand how content is deployed and used in running systems.





Note: Please feel empowered to apply for this position, even if you think you may only align with some of the qualities listed above. Your unique skills and perspectives could be just what we’re looking for.
