- Rapidly prototype and deliver capabilities to address emerging intelligence issues, ensuring alignment with mission requirements.
- Create and integrate computer programs, often for larger software systems, to support mission-critical applications.
- Design and optimize algorithms, conducting analysis, implementation, profiling, and experimental evaluation to ensure performance and scalability.
- Bridge the gap between algorithm theory and practical applications, translating complex requirements into robust software solutions.
- Collaborate with lab teams, mission stakeholders, and intelligence analysts to define requirements, prototype solutions, and deliver actionable tools.
- Adapt to evolving mission needs across multiple lab locations, addressing technical challenges with innovative and efficient solutions.
- Perform optimization and profiling of algorithms to enhance performance in resource-constrained or time-sensitive environments.
- Document technical designs, algorithm specifications, and software processes to support mission continuity and compliance.
- Stay current with advancements in machine learning, SIGINT, and GEOINT technologies to inform R&D efforts.
- Bachelor’s degree with 8+ years related experience or Master’s degree and 6+ years related experience. Additional experience maybe considered in lieu of a degree.
- An active TS/SCI with Poly security clearance.
- At least 3 years of experience in software engineering, with a focus on machine learning and algorithm development.
- Expertise in developing SIGINT and GEOINT tools, algorithms, or prototype capabilities for intelligence applications.
- Strong experience in designing, implementing, and optimizing computer algorithms for mission-critical systems.
- Proficiency in creating computer programs, including integration with larger software systems.
- Knowledge of machine learning frameworks (e.g., TensorFlow, PyTorch, Scikit-learn) and algorithm development tools.
- Experience with rapid-response R&D, including prototyping and experimental evaluation in dynamic environments.
- Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to bridge algorithm theory with practical software engineering applications.
- Ability to work in various lab environments and adapt to rapidly changing mission requirements.
- Excellent communication skills to collaborate with mission stakeholders, lab personnel, and technical teams.
- Experience working in laboratory environments supporting defense, intelligence, or SIGINT/GEOINT missions.
- Advanced certifications in machine learning, software engineering, or related fields (e.g., AWS Certified Machine Learning, Google Professional Data Engineer).
- Proficiency in programming languages such as Python, C++, or Java for algorithm and software development.
- Familiarity with SIGINT/GEOINT-specific tools, frameworks, or data formats (e.g., NITF, STANAG).
- Experience with cloud-based development environments (e.g., AWS, Azure) for machine learning and algorithm deployment.
- Knowledge of mission-specific security standards or frameworks (e.g., NIST, RMF, or IC/DoD compliance).
- Experience working in Agile or DevOps environments to support rapid prototyping and delivery.
- Familiarity with XMIDAS.
- Familiarity with SIGHUB and GEOHUB environments.
- Mission Impact: Develop innovative SIGINT and GEOINT solutions that directly support national security and intelligence missions.
