There are still lots of open positions. Let's find the one that's right for you.
The Aerospace Corporation is the trusted partner to the nation's space programs, solving the hardest problems and providing unmatched technical expertise. As the operator of a federally funded research and development center (FFRDC), we are broadly engaged across all aspects of space- delivering innovative solutions that span satellite, launch, ground, and cyber systems for defense, civil and commercial customers. When you join our team, you'll be part of a special collection of problem solvers, thought leaders, and innovators. Join us and take your place in space. At the Mission Payloads Division (MPD), we are pioneers in remote sensing systems that guide our country's space enterprise. Our talented and dynamic people create and flourish in electronics, sensors, radar, artificial intelligence (AI), and advanced data network domains. We boldly advance technology through our research and development and then forward to demonstration and integration. With innovative laboratories and prototyping, MPD delivers groundbreaking results. We guide our Department of Defense, intelligence community, and civil clients to enhance national productivity and security and tackle the most critical missions. Bring your intelligence and creative spirit and join us at MPD! The Integrated Sensor Design and Analysis Department (ISDAD), within the Sensor Systems Subdivision (SSS) in MPD, is seeking an electro-optical analyst with a focus on missile warning to join our team of scientists and engineers engaged in developing the next generation of remote sensing systems of national importance. The ISDAD team supports all aspects of advanced remote sensing system development: designing and assessing the performance of optics and electro-optical sensor systems, modeling the end-to-end sensing system, developing innovative data processing and computer vision algorithms, and producing simulated data products for new applications. Our work directly influences government architecture and acquisition decisions and assists our customer counterparts with designing, acquiring, and fielding the most advanced capabilities in the world that are crucial for defending our nation. As an electro-optical analyst joining the Integrated Sensor Design & Analysis Department, you will continue to develop your expertise and skills in the modeling and simulation of remote sensing systems, and constellations of such systems, with a specific focus on overhead persistent infrared missile warning and tracking systems. In the future, you will be able to apply this expertise to other types of electro-optical sensor systems (intelligence and surveillance, space domain/situational awareness, etc.).
