Job Description
The Advanced Concepts and Technologies Group is seeking a candidate to conduct research in maritime electro-optical / infrared (EO/IR) imaging and help develop capability for next-generation systems for the DoD. The work will include several roles including (1) the operation of custom imaging systems and experimental lab and field testing as part of a team and (2) image and signal processing and algorithm development of imagery data for specific mission purposes. The candidate is expected to be able to work independently on problems exhibiting critical thinking as well as in collaborative team environments. Work tasks could include systems analysis to understand problems, developing new concepts to solve problems, developing and implementing new algorithms and processing approaches, operating imaging systems during lab and field testing, conducting data analysis on collected imagery, and presenting results to external sponsors with clear communication skills.
Requirements
Ph.D. (or M.S. degree with at least 5-10 years of experience) in Physics, Engineering, Mathematics, Aeronautics/Astronautics, or related field; significant programming skills in any language (MATLAB, Python, Julia, C++, Java, etc.) and ability to solve complex problems. Self-motivated with a proven ability to address a broad range of problems both independently and collaboratively with highly dynamic, interdisciplinary teams.
Desired
Hands-on experience with imaging systems in the laboratory or in field testing is helpful. Experience in data analysis and image processing using Matlab, Python and C++ is beneficial as well as AI/ML techniques for image recognition.
