JOB PURPOSE
The Algorithm & Analysis Engineer is responsible for the development and support of state-of-the-art algorithms involving data fusion, sensor fusion, machine learning, manned/unmanned avionics improvement programs, and genetic programming. The Algorithm & Analysis Engineer focuses on the design, analysis, software/hardware implementation, optimization, profiling, and experimental evaluation of computer algorithms, bridging the gap between algorithm theory and practical applications of algorithms in software engineering. Additionally, the Algorithm & Analysis Engineer conducts statistical analysis of multi-modal and time-varying data to characterize and quantify system qualities and deficiencies, resulting in recommendations and development of improvements.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
- Perform data cleaning and fundamental data analysis using existing tools with senior guidance
- Execute algorithm tests in accordance with direction from senior researchers
- Contribute to algorithm design discussions
- Design and/or modify aspects of algorithm design and implementation with oversight from senior researchers
- Contribute to technical report execution with oversight from senior researchers
- Interface and conduct work with disparate engineering teams
- Contribute with regular oversight when tasked to execute specific technical and writing objectives in the service of conference presentations and journal publications
- Aid in literature searches with direction from senior researchers
ADDITIONAL RESPONSIBILITIES
- Develop physics-based models representing EO/IR sensors and systems
- Develop and optimize detailed mathematical models representing missiles and other threats, aircraft, vehicle, and threat signatures,EO/IR atmospheric propagation, sensor optics, and detectors
- Create simulations and algorithm optimizations to support military threat warning systems
- Interface with high performance computing cluster to execute large-scale simulation analysis
- Travel to sponsor locations to support meetings and attend test events
- Perform other duties as assigned
