Job Description

Job Title: Senior Spectral Algorithm Developer

Job Location: Dayton, OH, Aurora, CO, or Springfield, VA

Compensation: $150,000 - $215,000

Eligibility/Clearance: Candidate must possess an active TS/SCI clearance

and be willing to obtain a CI Polygraph

Job Description:

• About the Role:

We are seeking a highly skilled Spectral Algorithm Developer (Senior

or SME level) to lead scientific research, algorithm development,

and implementation efforts focused on material identification using

infrared (IR) spectral data. This role requires a senior-level

professional with expertise in developing methodologies and

algorithms for analyzing spectral signatures and predicting material

characteristics.

• In this position, you will conduct research, develop

proof-of-concept algorithms, and implement a full processing chain

to match sensor data with a ground-truth database of material signal

measurements. Your work will play a critical role in advancing the

accuracy and efficiency of material identification processes,

leveraging cutting-edge technologies and analytical methods.

• Key Responsibilities:
• Perform scientific research and proof-of-concept algorithm

development for identifying materials based on IR spectral

signatures.

• Develop and implement Python-based spectral exploitation

methodologies and algorithms.

• Analyze the information content of spectral data across various

resolutions (e.g., total intensity, multi-spectral, hyperspectral).

• Conduct literature reviews and trade studies on the effects of

material coatings and substrates on emissions of materials.

• Design, test, and validate spectral algorithms to predict candidate

material coating/substrate combinations.

• Develop end-to-end processing chains that apply the developed

methodologies to real-world sensor data.

• Document methodologies, findings, and technical details in

comprehensive reports and presentations.

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate solutions into

larger systems.

• Qualifications:
• Education: Bachelor’s degree (B.A./B.S.) in a STEM field (Physics,

Engineering, Computer Science, etc.).

• Experience: 10+ years of relevant experience in spectral data

analysis, algorithm development, or related fields.

• Active TS/SCI clearance with CI polygraph.
• Experience with multi-spectral and hyperspectral imaging techniques
• Required Skills:
• Proficiency inPythonprogramming for algorithm development and

data analysis.

• Proficiency in scientific computing libraries (e.g.,NumPy, SciPy,

Pandas, Matplotlib).

• Expertise in IR spectroscopy and spectral signature analysis.
• Experience designing and implementing processing chains for

scientific or technical applications.

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with attention to

detail.

• Excellent technical writing and verbal communication skills.
• Desired (Bonus) Skills:
• Experience with Hierarchical Data Format (HD5, HDF5, etc.)

containing multidimensional arrays of scientific data.

• Experience with MatLab
• Knowledge of material coatings, substrates, and their effects on

spectral emissions.

• Experience working with large datasets and ground-truth databases.
• Background in software development best practices, including

testing and validation.

• Experience working in an R&D environment
