Job description

You will be an Software/Algorithm Engineer on Aeronautics Sensor Fusion team, working at the forefront of sensor fusion, perception, and autonomy for fighter and unmanned platforms. In this role you will have a significant impact on shaping the future of Sensor Fusion across Aeronautics, defining the vision for our current and next generation platforms, and integrating our most advanced technologies. If you thrive on pushing the envelope, have a passion for difficult algorithmic challenges, and are passionate about turning novel sensor concepts into flight ready software, this position on our Emerging Technology Sensor Fusion team is for you. The team is seeking an Software/Algorithm Engineer with a strong background in sensor fusion, algorithm development, and autonomous perception to support current and future development efforts. The successful applicant will own the full lifecycle of key algorithms that enable aircraft based fusion and autonomous decision making. Responsibilities include contributing to software requirements, algorithm design, mode development, design reviews, and testing of operational flight ready, sensor fusion software. As an Software/Algorithm Engineer on the Sensor Fusion team, you will be critical to ensuring we stay “ahead of ready” and continue to lead the Sensor Fusion domain. In this role, you will:
- Develop the vision for integration of new technologies, sensors, and capabilities into our programs.
- Write high quality, embedded C++ Sensor Fusion software products that are deployed across multiple platforms and run on real-time operating systems.
- Stage algorithms in high-fidelity simulation for feasibility studies and operational analysis, pushing the operational effectivity of our warfighter.
- Represent the organization as a subject matter expert in your sub-domain.
- Coordinate with other fusion sub-disciplines to ensure integration of your algorithms across core fusion domains.
- Define pathways for incorporation into a highly reusable, next generation multi platform Fusion Engine that will serve future autonomous systems. Basic Qualifications:
-- 5+ years experience in sensor fusion sub-domain(s) (e.g., state estimation, identification, correlation, sensor tasking) or strong experience across multiple domains including signal processing, artificial intelligence, autonomy/perception, artificial intelligence, navigation, or control systems in a sensor/systems application.
-- 5+ years experience with algorithms used in development of sensor modes for RF and/or IR based sensor systems.
-- 10+ years experience with Real Time Operating Systems development in C, C++, or Rust (Windows/Linux).
-- High-fidelity prototyping/simulation in MATLAB or Python.
-- Demonstrated success working in an AGILE environment 6+ years of C++ required
4+ years of Visual Studio required
6+ years of Configuration management required
6+ years of software engineering required
6+ years of integration experience required
Strong mathematical background required
2+ years of MATLAB preferred
6+ years of data analysis preferred
1+ year of AI preferred
4+ years of simulation experience preferred
6+ years of testing experience preferred
6+ years of mathematical models and equations preferred
