Original job description

Description

Are you an engineer interested in developing innovative signal processing algorithms and advanced system concepts to solve challenging real-world problems?

Would you like the opportunity to apply your technical expertise to developing next-generation capabilities that enable integrated kinetic and non-kinetic defense systems?

If so, we're looking for someone like you to join our team at APL!

The Networked Systems and Integrated Fires group is seeking a Signal Processing Engineer to contribute to the development of advanced sensing, tracking, and data fusion capabilities through algorithm development, modeling and simulation, and systems engineering. You will work with a multidisciplinary team to explore new approaches for processing and combining information from various sources to produce accurate, timely, and actionable data for a wide range of kinetic and non-kinetic weapons and effectors. Your work will help advance critical technologies for future defense systems.

As a Signal Processing Engineer, you will:

Design, develop, and evaluate algorithms for sensor data processing, target tracking, and multi-sensor information fusion.
Investigate new approaches for integrating information from various sensors and other sources to support kinetic and non-kinetic engagements.
Develop and use modeling and simulation tools to assess algorithm performance and explore new system concepts.
Analyze sensor and system characteristics to understand their impact on tracking, data fusion, and overall system performance.
Conduct technical studies to evaluate alternative algorithms, architectures, and system designs and identify opportunities for performance improvements.
Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to develop, prototype, and demonstrate innovative algorithms and integrated system capabilities for future defense applications.

Qualifications

You meet our minimum qualifications for the job if you…

Have a BS degree in Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Mathematics, or a related field.
Have 3+ years of experience in developing and implementing sensor data processing, sensor data association, or target tracking algorithms and concepts.
Have a strong foundation in statistical or adaptive signal processing.
Have demonstrated analytical and applied mathematical skills.
Have proficiency in MATLAB, Python, or similar programming languages for algorithm development or data analysis.
Have the ability to perform effectively as part of a multi-disciplinary team.
Can effectively communicate technical ideas and results.
Are able to obtain an Interim Secret security clearance by your start date and can ultimately obtain a Secret security clearance. If selected, you will be subject to a government security clearance investigation and must meet the requirements for access to classified information. Eligibility requirements include U.S. citizenship.

You’ll go above and beyond our minimum requirements if you…

Have an MS or PhD degree in Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Mathematics or a related field.
Have research, development, or analysis experience in one or more of the following areas:
Probability and stochastic processes
Target tracking algorithms and concepts
Sensor fusion algorithms and techniques
Detection and estimation theory
Have an active Secret security clearance
