HII Unmanned Systems is seeking a Perception Engineer to support our rapidly expanding autonomous systems division. As our new Perception Engineer, you will lead the development and deployment of perception systems that enable our unmanned platforms to intelligently sense, understand, and operate in complex maritime and operational environments.

This role oversees the design, implementation, and optimization of computer vision and sensor fusion pipelines that run on embedded edge hardware in real-world conditions. The position is responsible for building robust perception capabilities including object detection, tracking, state estimation, localization, and situational awareness systems. Responsibilities span architecture and development, sensor integration and calibration, performance optimization for edge compute, real-time system design, and cross-functional collaboration with autonomy, controls, software, hardware, and mission operations teams.

It's your chance to step up to the challenge and prove you're ready to lead the world!

Location: Virginia Beach, VA area!

What you will be doing..

Perception Systems Development • Design, develop, and maintain perception pipelines for unmanned maritime systems, including object detection, tracking, localization, state estimation, and SLAM algorithms • Architect and implement sensor fusion systems that integrate data from cameras, LiDAR, radar, sonar, and other sensors to provide robust situational awareness • Develop point cloud processing, filtering, and tracking algorithms for 3D perception in maritime environments • Build and optimize computer vision models and deep learning systems for object recognition, classification, and scene understanding • Implement sensor calibration procedures and algorithms to ensure accurate perception across varied environmental conditions • Design and develop debugging and visualization tools, logging systems, and off-robot data processing pipelines to support development and field operations

Edge Deployment and Optimization • Deploy and optimize perception systems on embedded edge hardware with strict latency and throughput constraints • Apply quantization, pruning, model compression, and other optimization techniques to achieve real-time performance • Develop efficient, maintainable software code that meets

production standards for reliability and performance • Integrate perception outputs into autonomy stacks and mission software, working closely with platform and controls teams • Model sensor performance and integrate perception systems into simulated virtual environments to bridge the sim-to-real gap

Testing and Performance Analysis • Conduct rigorous testing of perception systems on real hardware and in operational environments, including maritime conditions • Evaluate performance through robot testing, sea trials, and data analysis, turning findings into system improvements • Define metrics and evaluation frameworks to monitor deployed system health and performance • Investigate perception failures in the field and drive resolution across engineering teams • Harden existing perception approaches to make them more robust under varied weather, lighting, and sea state conditions

Cross-Functional Collaboration • Partner with autonomy, controls, software, hardware, and product teams to define requirements and integrate perception systems onto unmanned maritime platforms • Support troubleshooting of perception performance in operational environments and during customer deployments • Work with systems, manufacturing, and test engineering teams to define hardware interfaces and ensure successful system integration • Engage with operators and customers to translate field challenges into engineering solutions • Document designs, experiments, and learnings while contributing to improved development processes, tools, and design standards

Technical Leadership • Champion best practices including first-principles thinking, robust testing, code reviews, performance analysis, and real-time system design • Provide technical mentorship to junior engineers and contribute to building a high-performance engineering culture • Set technical direction for perception capabilities and drive architecture decisions • Stay current with state-of-the-art perception and machine learning techniques and evaluate their applicability to unmanned systems

Hands-on experience deploying perception systems on real robots or autonomous systems, including shipping software on production platforms
Practical experience with deep learning frameworks and computer vision libraries
Experience with real-time or latency-constrained systems and edge compute optimization
Knowledge of maritime sensors including sonar, marine radar, AIS, and specialized cameras
Ability to explain technical results and trade-offs clearly to teammates, in writing and in person
Curiosity and a hands-on approach to debugging problems on real hardware and with real-world data
Must be able to obtain and maintain a government clearance

Bonus points for..

Experience with maritime, underwater, or surface vessel perception systems
Background in autonomous vehicle perception for maritime systems
Track record of technical leadership owning technical projects, setting direction, and collaborating across team
Familiarity with robotics simulation environments and sim-to-real transfer
Experience with unmanned systems operations, testing, and field deployment
