• Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering (with a focus in Electrical, Mechanical or Aeronautical), Computer Science, Data Science, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry or non-US equivalent qualifications directly related to the work statement.
• Level 3: 5+ years of related work experience and a bachelor’s degree or an equivalent combination of related work experience and technical education.
• Level 4: 9+ years of related work experience and a bachelor’s degree or an equivalent combination of related work experience and technical education.
• Solid experience (Level 3: ~5+ years; Level 4: ~9+ years) in multi-sensor data fusion, tracking, or signal processing for IR and/or RF domains.
• Must meet U.S. export control compliance requirements. To meet U.S. export control compliance requirements, a “U.S. Person” as defined by 22 C.F.R. §120.62 is required. “U.S. Person” includes U.S. Citizen, U.S. National, lawful permanent resident, refugee, or asylee.
• This position requires the ability to obtain a U.S. Security Clearance for which the U.S. Government requires U.S. Citizenship. An interim U.S. Secret Clearance Pre-Start and final U.S. Secret Clearance Post-Start is required.
• This position requires ability to obtain program access, for which the U.S. Government requires U.S. Citizenship only.

Nice To Haves

• Hands-on prototyping experience in MATLAB/Simulink and/or Python; demonstrated ability to translate algorithms to C/C++ for embedded or real-time targets.
• Experience integrating onboard and offboard data sources and understanding latency, bandwidth, synchronization, and security implications of distributed sensing.
• Strong systems engineering capabilities: requirements derivation, interface control documents, verification planning, and trade studies.
• Prior experience deploying fusion algorithms on real-time or embedded processors and optimizing for latency and computational load.
• Familiarity with simulation frameworks and test automation for lab/field characterization.
• Model based systems engineering methodologies (MSOSA preferred).
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills; demonstrated experience working across multi-disciplinary teams and presenting to leadership.

Responsibilities

• Define system and interface requirements for multi-sensor fusion across IR and RF domains, and for integration of onboard and offboard sources (datalinks, distributed sensors).
• Architect and document fusion solutions: block diagrams, data flows, latency/bandwidth budgets, timing, and synchronization.
• Design, prototype, and evaluate fusion algorithms (track association, data association, state estimation, sensor registration, bias estimation, confidence/uncertainty quantification).
• Develop simulations, test plans, and lead lab/field verification, validation, and performance characterization.
• Specify and enforce data models, messaging formats, timestamping, and coordinate-frame conventions to ensure interoperable integration.
• Integrate algorithms into real-time processors and embedded platforms; collaborate with SW/HW teams on optimization, profiling, and deployment.
• Analyze failure modes, perform sensitivity and robustness studies, and specify fault detection/recovery behaviors.
• Produce concise technical documentation for design decisions, validation results, and safety/compliance artifacts.
• Communicate results, tradeoffs, and operational suitability to leadership, customers, and industry partners; support user demonstrations.
• Own algorithm lifecycle: requirements → design → prototyping → verification → optimization → deployment → maintenance.
• Take ownership of assigned capabilities and features and delivers end-to-end.
• Communicate tradeoffs and recommended paths forward to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Proactively document decisions and contribute to reusable patterns and standards.
• Expected to independently deliver complex fusion features and integrations (Level 3).
• Own end-to-end algorithm development and prototype-to-embedded translation for assigned capability areas (Level 3).
• Mentor junior engineers and integrate across disciplinary teams (sensors, software, systems) (Level 3).
• Contribute design artifacts and trade studies; drive verification of delivered capabilities (Level 3).
• Leads cross-functional technical initiatives and sets architecture for major fusion capabilities or subsystems (Level 4).
• Drives system-level requirements, end-to-end data flow designs, and architectural trade-offs impacting multiple teams (Level 4).
• Responsible for technical mentorship, standards, and enabling scalable integration and verification practices (Level 4).
• Frequently represents the program in technical reviews with customers and partners (Level 4).
