Springfield, VA (On-Site/Office)
Job Title: Python/IDL Developer
Location: Springfield, VA
Eligibility: Candidate must possess an active TS/SCI clearance
Position Description:
We are seeking a mid-level developer to support advanced research and
development efforts within NGA’s Spectral/Remote Sensing group. This
role is ideal for candidates with a strong foundation in scientific
computing and a background in remote sensing or spectral phenomenology,
particularly in the context of Hyperspectral Imaging (HSI),
Multispectral Imaging (MSI), and related modalities.
You’ll work alongside government scientists, researchers, and analysts
to prototype, refine, and optimize tools that support the exploitation
of spectral data. The ideal candidate brings proficiency in Python and
IDL, with additional experience in MATLAB and familiarity with R&D or
laboratory-style development workflows.
Key Responsibilities:
- Develop, test, and optimize algorithms for spectral data
exploitation using Python, IDL, and MATLAB
- Support the analysis and visualization of HSI, MSI, and other
spectral datasets
- Integrate custom tools into mission workflows and prototype
environments
- Collaborate with government researchers and analysts to translate
scientific objectives into technical solutions
- Document code and provide support for transitioning R&D efforts into
operational environments
- Participate in technical discussions, design reviews, and data
evaluation activities
Required Qualifications:
- Active TS/SCI clearance with ability to obtain a CI Poly (must have)
- Proficiency in Python and IDL (non-negotiable)
- Exoeruebce with OPIR, hyperspectral/multispectral imaging (HSI/MSI)
and related spectral data types (non-negotiable)
- Background in remote sensing, image processing, or a related
geospatial discipline (non-negotiable)
- Working knowledge of MATLAB
- Ability to work in a collaborative R&D setting with shifting
priorities and exploratory goals
- 4 years of experience in scientific or data-focused software
development
- B.A./B.S. Degree
Preferred Qualifications:
- Prior experience supporting NGA or other IC customers
- Familiarity with NGA data formats, toolchains, or spectral
exploitation workflows
- Background in physics, electrical engineering, computer science, or
a related field
- Experience working with large, high-dimensional imagery datasets
