TL;DR · Algorithm Engineer, Tracking Systems

JOB TITLE: Algorithm Engineer, Tracking Systems The Algorithm Engineer, Tracking Systems joins the Air & Missile Defense Radar team to develop software systems that detect, track, and characterize airborne threats in real-time. You will design and implement advanced tracking algorithms, including multi-target tracking, track fusion, and discrimination techniques for novel air and missile threats. Daily responsibilities include developing high-performance software to process radar sensor data, building modeling and simulation environments to validate performance, and optimizing code for performance-critical environments. The role requires proficiency in C++ and Python, alongside a strong foundation in linear algebra, probability, statistics, and differential equations. You will also utilize signal processing, estimation theory, and distributed systems to solve complex defense problems, ensuring the successful deployment of mission-critical tracking solutions for government and industry customers.

What you'll do

  • Design and implement advanced tracking algorithms for multi-target tracking, track fusion, and discrimination.
  • Develop high-performance, real-time software to process radar sensor data for hundreds of simultaneous targets.
  • Build and leverage modeling and simulation environments to validate tracking performance and quantify system capabilities.
  • Optimize tracking software for performance-critical environments where millisecond latency is critical.
  • Integrate tracking solutions into end-to-end defense systems with radar engineers and system architects.
  • Communicate technical concepts and trade-offs to cross-functional teams, leadership, and customers.
  • Participate in customer demonstrations and field tests to ensure successful operational deployment.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, or a related technical field (or equivalent experience).
  • 2 years of relevant experience.
  • Strong programming skills in C++ and Python.
  • Solid foundation in linear algebra, probability, statistics, and/or differential equations.
  • Understanding of software engineering fundamentals including design patterns, testing, version control, and debugging.
  • Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. Top Secret SCI security clearance.
  • Experience with tracking, estimation, or filtering algorithms (preferred).
  • Background in controls, estimation theory, or digital signal processing (preferred).
