TL;DR · Senior C++ Engineer, High-Performance Systems

As a Senior C++ Engineer, High-Performance Systems, you will join the Air & Missile Defense Radar team to develop sophisticated tracking algorithms and high-performance distributed systems. You will design and implement advanced multi-target tracking, track fusion, and discrimination techniques to detect and characterize airborne threats in real-time. Your daily work involves developing software that processes massive amounts of radar sensor data within milliseconds, building modeling and simulation environments for performance validation, and collaborating with engineers to integrate solutions into end-to-end defense systems. The role requires expert 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 critical problems in signal processing and sensor fusion to protect assets against complex threats.

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 processing speed is critical.
  • 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.
