SciTec, a wholly owned subsidiary of Firefly Aerospace, is a dynamic non-traditional defense contractor that delivers advanced technologies in support of U.S. National Security and Defense. For the past forty-five plus years, we have supported Department of Defense customers by developing innovative remote sensing algorithms, tools, and techniques to deliver world-class data exploitation capabilities supporting missile defense; intelligence, surveillance, & reconnaissance; space domain awareness; and aircraft survivability missions. Important Notice: SciTec exclusively works on U.S. government contracts that require U.S. citizenship for all employees. SciTec cannot sponsor or assume sponsorship of employee work visas of any type. Further, U.S. citizenship is a requirement to obtain and keep a security clearance. Applicants that do not meet these requirements will not be considered. SciTec has immediate opportunities for talented software & algorithm developers and engineers to support programs focusing on low-latency data processing, fusion, and tracking algorithms for exploitation of remote sensing systems. Our ideal candidate will work well in multiple software languages as part of a rapid pace, collaborative, small-team environment consisting of Scientists, Engineers, and Developers and be able to prototype and develop advanced algorithms leading to eventual integration in C++ on Linux operating systems as part of government frameworks. Responsibilities Lead the research, development, and maturation of advanced numerical algorithms for remote sensing data exploitation across multi-modal sensor systems (e.g., EO/IR, SAR, RF) Design, implement, and optimize high-performance algorithms in Python and C++, with a focus on scalability, efficiency, and operational robustness in mission environments Architect and develop end-to-end signal processing, image processing, and data exploitation pipelines from prototype through production deployment Advance modeling, simulation, and machine learning toolchains, including development of reusable frameworks and infrastructure to support algorithm evaluation and integration Define and execute quantitative performance assessments of algorithms and sensor systems, including error characterization, sensitivity analysis, and validation against real-world data Collaborate cross-functionally with software engineers, system architects, and mission stakeholders to integrate algorithms into operational systems and ensure mission alignment Provide technical leadership within Agile development teams, including mentoring junior engineers, driving best practices, and contributing to shared codebases and tools Support proposal efforts, technical roadmaps, and customer engagements by articulating algorithmic approaches and differentiators Ensure compliance with mission assurance, security, and software quality standards applicable to DoD environments Other duties as assigned SciTec offers a highly competitive salary and benefits package, including: 4% Safe Harbor 401(k) match 100% company paid HSA Medical insurance, with a choice of 2 buy-up options 80% company paid Dental insurance 100% company paid Vision insurance 100% company paid Life insurance 100% company paid Long-term Disability insurance 100% company paid Hospital Indemnity insurance Voluntary Accident and Critical Illness insurance Short-term Disability insurance Annual Profit-Sharing Plan Discretionary Performance Bonus Paid Parental Leave Generous Paid Time Off, including Holiday, Vacation, and Sick Pay Flexible Work Hours The pay range for this position is $102,000 - $157,000 / year.
