TL;DR · Specialist, Image Science Engineer

The Specialist, Image Science Engineer provides imagery expertise to support the development of analytical processes and tools while assessing image quality impacts across the collection, processing, dissemination, archival, exploitation, and display of digital imagery. This role focuses on Modeling, Simulation, and Analysis, specifically developing image sensing system models, simulating system-generated data, and evaluating results against quality objectives. The engineer will assess image processing routines for remote sensing systems and solve complex engineering problems. Required technical skills include Python, MATLAB, UNIX based scripting, and C++ programming. Candidates must demonstrate competencies in data analysis, creative problem solving, and design thinking. The work involves analyzing Visible and IR electro-optical systems, creating 3D models for scene creation, and utilizing DIRSIG for simulation generation within the remote sensing domain.

What you'll do

  • Provide image science expertise to conduct quality analysis throughout the TCPED chain.
  • Assess the utility of image processing routines and advanced algorithms for remote sensing systems.
  • Develop image sensing system models and simulate system-generated data.
  • Evaluate simulated results against specific data quality objectives.
  • Investigate and provide solutions to complex engineering and quality control problems.
  • Author technical documents and presentations regarding image science and engineering solutions.
  • Develop engineering-level software routines using Python, C, C++, or MATLAB.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor’s degree with relevant experience, a Graduate degree with relevant experience, or related experience.
  • 2 years of experience with Python, MATLAB, UNIX based scripting, and/or C++ programming.
  • Experience in data and problem analysis, creative problem solving, and design thinking.
  • TS/SCI security clearance.
  • At least 1 year of experience working with remotely sensed data (preferred).
  • Understanding of image processing techniques, software tools, and algorithms for passive remote sensing systems (preferred).
  • Experience as a Technical Contributor developing image processing algorithms or engineering tools (preferred).
  • U.S. citizens.
