Description
Standard Job Description
Researches, designs, develops and verifies signal and image collection systems, and defines and develops processing and dissemination computer algorithms. Develops requirements analysis, sub-system architectures, and integrates new signal and image processing technology systems. Designs, develops and analyzes systems and algorithms for the extraction of information from signal and image sensors. Technologies applied include: remote sensing; detection and estimation theories; morphological processing; speech processing; neural networks; electromagnetic and acoustic effects on signals; and implementation of signal processing with advanced computer architectures.
Basic Qualifications
We are seeking an experienced Signal and Image Processing (S/IP) Engineer who will join a highly skilled team of systems engineering technologists and algorithm developers supporting various contracts and IRADs within Missiles and Fire Control.
Basic Qualifications
- BS in electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, aerospace engineering, physics, computer science, applied mathematics, or similar STEM degree and 1+ years of relevant experience.
- Interim Clearance is needed to start, therefore you must be a US Citizen.
- Shall be fluent in one or more of the following languages:
- MATLAB, python, C++
- Shall have experience solving problems and relevant algorithm development in 2 of the image processing domains mentioned below:
- match filtering, SNR analysis, image enhancement algorithms, resolved or unresolved target detection, automatic target recognition / identification,
- Shall demonstrate strong math skills in the areas of:
- linear algebra, matrix math, statistics, trigonometry, and convolution
- Have experience in validating C++ algorithm simulations and hardware models with real-time data collections
- Have been exposed to implementing and debugging IP algorithms running in a real-time processing environments
Typical IP Engineer tasks may include:
- Develop, test, and verify embedded algorithms that support unresolved (point-source) and resolved target detection and tracking for missile and fire control products.
- Develop, validate, and test complex models and simulations that utilize match filters, convolutional neural networks, and other such techniques to detect targets of interest.
- Evaluate and analyze system performance in complex scenarios and environments and verify system and subsystem level requirements
- Perform analyses and test activities that support ground and flight test efforts including Hardware-In-The-Loop (HWIL) activities
- Opportunities will exist to join small teams of engineers and algorithm developers on a variety of different programs that are in various stages of product development.
- Support program reviews and technical interchange meetings with internal leadership and/or external customers
Desired Skills
- Active Secret Clearance
- Ability to perform preflight system performance assessment and post flight verification analyses
- Familiarity with deployable AI/ML topologies as they relate to target detection
- Have been exposed to electro-optic phenomenology and optical system analysis as it applies to image/signal processing.
- Strong programming skills that can translate to C++ in a Linux environment
- Familiarity with clutter rejection techniques
- Familiarity with Modelling and Simulation of EOIR systems
