The Sensors Division at STR focuses on technology development for advanced sensor systems, particularly in the areas of airborne/surface-based radar, electronic warfare, underwater acoustics, hyperspectral imaging, and EO/IR sensing. Within these specialties, we perform work ranging from full-system prototypes to technology component development. Specialties within the Sensors Division include RF analog/digital hardware, acoustic hardware, signal processing algorithms, machine learning algorithms, tracking/fusion, as well as real-time embedded processor implementation.
The Autonomous Mission Systems group within the Sensors division of STR will develop new architectures, technologies, and operating concepts to leverage autonomous systems to fight more effectively. This will include performing top-down systems analysis, mission engineering, and systems engineering along with bottom-up technology development and prototyping.
The relevant technology areas include AI/ML approaches, data assimilation and state estimation technologies, image and signal processing, control theory, and other algorithms that enable smarter machines. The relevant system domains span under-sea, sea-surface, land, air, and space. The relevant mission sets include air dominance, space dominance, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance, and electronic warfare. We rely heavily on performance models and simulations to make large system-level trades.
Responsibilities:
- Initially, this role will include software development in Java and Python to develop backend algorithms in support of BMC2 systems. Over time it will evolve to the development of autonomy and the AI/ML technologies that enable autonomy.
Requirements:
- Advanced signal processing, machine learning experience, state estimation (Kalman Filters), image processing
- Applicants must be US Citizens with the eligibility to clear for a Secret clearance.
Desired Qualifications:
- Strong Java, Python experience. Working knowledge of MATLAB for prototyping algorithms.
Education:
- Degree in a STEM field. B.S + 3 years experience or M.S. + 1 year experience
