Software Engineer, Robotics Tracking and Fusion

Required

• 3+ years of experience in algorithm design, software development, and mathematical modeling with programming expertise in C/C++ and/or Rust.
• Strong knowledge of path planning techniques, such as graph-based search (A*, D* Lite), sampling-based planners (RRT, RRT*, PRM), and online/real-time replanning approaches.
• Demonstrated experience in guidance, navigation, and control (GNC); trajectory optimization and trajectory prediction; and/or the development of predictive models for vehicle dynamics and weapon system effectiveness (e.g., 6-DoF simulation, intercept analysis).
• Solid understanding of applied mathematics, including linear algebra, optimization, computational geometry, and graph theory.
• Knowledge of vehicle dynamics, kinematic constraints, and control theory as applied to autonomous ground, air, or maritime platforms tasked through C2 systems, including high-speed aerial vehicles.
• Familiarity with map representations, terrain reasoning, state estimation, and the efficient handling of large-scale geospatial and environmental data within distributed C2 architectures.
• Exposure to machine learning as applied to planning and decision-making, including reinforcement learning, learned heuristics, and behavior prediction.
• Ability to write robust, concurrent code for planning under uncertainty and operation in complex, dynamic, contested environments.
• Demonstrated ability to work across development lifecycles, from prototyping to optimizing production systems.
• Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.
