TL;DR · Senior Algorithm Developer

As a Senior Algorithm Developer on the Air & Missile Defense Radar team, you will design and implement advanced tracking algorithms for novel air and missile threats, including multi-target tracking, track fusion, and discrimination techniques. You will develop high-performance, real-time software systems to process radar sensor data and maintain tracks on hundreds of simultaneous targets while building modeling and simulation environments to validate performance. The role requires proficiency in C++ and Python, a strong foundation in linear algebra, probability, statistics, and differential equations, and knowledge of software engineering fundamentals like design patterns and version control. You will solve complex problems involving signal processing, estimation theory, and sensor fusion to protect critical assets. Desired skills include experience with Kalman filters, particle filters, multithreading, GPU acceleration, and various database technologies for building visualization tools in a mission-critical defense context.

What you'll do

  • Design and implement advanced tracking algorithms for multi-target detection, track fusion, and discrimination.
  • Develop high-performance, real-time software systems to process radar sensor data and maintain hundreds of simultaneous tracks.
  • Build and utilize modeling and simulation environments to validate performance and identify system improvements.
  • Optimize tracking software for performance-critical environments where millisecond response times are required.
  • Integrate tracking solutions into end-to-end defense systems in coordination with radar engineers and architects.
  • Communicate technical concepts and trade-offs to cross-functional teams, leadership, and customers.
  • Participate in customer demonstrations and field tests to ensure operational effectiveness of deployed systems.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, or a related technical field.
  • 8 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.
