Senior Scene Generation Engineer
About The Position
The Senior Scene Generation Engineer will join a multidisciplinary R&D team developing and deploying software for end-to-end scene generation in intelligence and defense applications. The role focuses on designing, developing, and validating physics-based 3D radiometric scene-generation workflows, including synthetic environment modeling, sensor simulation, real-time rendering, post-processing, and synthetic-data generation pipelines. The engineer will bridge physical sensor modeling, graphics rendering, and machine-learning pipelines to create software products that support training and evaluation of advanced sensing algorithms across edge devices, desktop workstations, and multi-GPU clusters. Responsibilities span the software development lifecycle, from requirements analysis and system architecture through testing, deployment, and performance optimization. The position is based in the Eglin, Florida area and is 100% onsite.
