Description
Are you interested in working in multi-disciplinary teams to advance the state-of-the-art in autonomous systems, uncrewed air platforms, artificial intelligence, software design, embedded systems, virtual reality, and simulation?
Are you interested in applying your skills to conceive, design, prototype and test new capabilities in intelligent autonomous systems that will save US warfighter's lives and ensure our nation's preeminence?
If you are graduating with a degree in Math, Computer Science, Physics, and/or Engineering or related area with a strong background in Software Development
, and you answered "yes" to either of these questions, we are looking for someone like you to join our team in the Intelligent Combat Platforms Group at APL!
As a member of our team, possible roles include...- Work on teams in one or more areas: intelligent control and decision-making, complex battlefield management, human-machine/multi-agent collaboration, networked distributed systems and reinforcement learning, software/hardware design, flight system test and evaluation, and next generation autonomous air platforms.
- Prototype and simulate AI and autonomous systems by writing code, developing software (simulation and visualization), creating algorithms, or interfacing software/hardware.
- Contribute to all facets of the data-to-deployment lifecycle of machine learning models.
Collaborate with the nation's leading experts in AI enabled combat systems and work with a team of engineers, scientists, and software developers to deliver impactful capability to the warfighter.
Qualifications
You meet our minimum qualifications for the job if you...- Have a Bachelor's or Master's degree in a STEM (Math, Computer Science, Physics, and/or Engineering or related area) field.
- Are skilled in C++, Python, and software design patterns.
- Have experience with applications for physical systems such as mechanical, aerospace, or robotics.
- Are able to obtain an Interim Secret security clearance by your start date and can ultimately obtain a Top Secret/SCI level 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 experience developing in a modern software development environment that includes automated testing, continuous integration and deployment, and "DevSecOps" environments.
- Have proficiency in additional programming languages and environments (C, C#, Java, Linux Javascript, Terminal, Bash, Pytorch, tensorflow, Unity, MATLAB), full stack development, simulation development, cloud computing, and configuration management.
- Have experience working with sensors, hardware, or flight test support.
- Have additional classroom or professional experience working with our core skills: autonomous systems, artificial intelligence, deep/reinforcement/machine learning, robotics, dynamics and controls, flight test and evaluation, modeling and simulation, aerodynamics, air combat platform design, data science, and statistical analysis.
- Have completed any certifications or internships.
