Description
Do you enjoy leading teams, mentoring staff, and guiding complex technology development efforts and analyses?Are you interested in researching, developing, and analyzing innovative ways to produce impactful information from many different types of sensors and sources of data?Do you want to advance US defense capabilities in Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance, and Targeting?If so, we're looking for someone like you to join our team at APL!We are seeking a creative and expert engineer and/or quantitative analyst to lead our efforts to conceptualize, develop, test, assess, and field the next generation of ISRT and Counter-ISRT capabilities for the US military. Our engineers and analysts apply a variety of disciplines such as sensor and data fusion, signal and image processing, operations research, applied physics, and artificial intelligence to build systems that automatically or autonomously orchestrate sensors, process data into information, and make intelligent inferences and predictions about complex threats and environments. Our work enables the US military to neutralize a wider variety of serious threats from safer distances than they could otherwise accomplish; improves the safety, survivability, and effectiveness of US air, naval, and ground forces; and disrupts the ability of potential adversaries to threaten our forces.As a Senior Engineer/Analyst for ISRT Scientific Applications ... - Your primary responsibility will be to lead and contribute to teams developing algorithms, mathematical-physical models, and prototype software for ISRT applications.
- You will lead and contribute to teams developing new signal processing, image processing, multi-sensor data fusion, and multi-sensor resource optimization techniques.
- You will lead and contribute to teams developing new modeling, simulation, and analytical methods and tools.
- You will lead and contribute to teams developing and analyzing new ISRT concepts and architectures.
- You will lead and contribute to field tests and experiments, including planning, execution, and data analysis.
- You will document and present the team's results to managers, sponsors, and technical workshops and conferences.
