Mid Level Machine Learning Teaching Jobs (NOW HIRING)

ESC is seeking a Mid-Level Machine Learning Engineer to support a mission-focused R&D program developing advanced signal detection and classification capabilities for national security applications. This role focuses on designing, training, and deploying ML models capable of identifying complex signals within high-bandwidth sensors and I/Q data streams. The engineer will work closely with researchers and software engineers to transition prototype algorithms into low-latency, edge-deployed operational systems supporting real-world mission environments.

Responsibilities:

• Design, develop, and optimize machine learning models for signal detection, classification, and anomaly detection within noisy and high-volume data streams
• Develop and tune deep learning architectures including CNNs, LSTMs, and Transformer-based models for temporal and sequence-based analysis
• Apply signal processing techniques such as Fourier and wavelet transforms to support feature extraction and model performance
• Build scalable data pipelines for real-time I/Q stream processing, including buffering, windowing, normalization, and inference workflows
• Evaluate model effectiveness using advanced performance metrics including ROC/AUC, precision-recall curves, confusion matrices, and other techniques for imbalanced datasets
• Optimize machine learning models for low-latency execution on edge and embedded hardware platforms
• Develop modular, maintainable, and testable code using Python, NumPy, PyTorch and/or TensorFlow
• Support integration with network-attached sensors, hardware abstraction layers, and real-time data sources
• Collaborate with software engineers, researchers, and mission stakeholders in an agile R&D environment
• Participate in code reviews, technical discussions, and continuous improvement efforts using GitLab-based development workflows
• Support containerized application development and deployment using Docker within Linux/Unix environments

Required Qualifications:

• Experience: 4-7 years of professional experience in machine learning or data science, with at least 2 years focused on sensor-based or temporal data.
• Education: B.S. or M.S. in computer science, data science, or applied mathematics.
• Security clearance: Active Top Secret (TS) clearance required. SCI preferred.
• Hands-on experience developing and deploying machine learning models using PyTorch and/or TensorFlow
• Strong understanding of machine learning fundamentals, statistics, linear algebra, and probability
• Experience developing software in Linux/Unix environments
• Proficiency in Python and scientific computing libraries such as NumPy
• Experience with version control and collaborative development workflows
• Experience working with I/Q data streams and real-time inference pipelines
