Machine Learning Signal Processing Engineer

Description

Do you want to join a high performing team that values integrity, innovation, and collaboration with a company whose mission is to make the world safer, healthier, and more efficient through information technology, engineering and science? Are you interested making a difference by applying your machine learning and signal processing skills toward state-of-the-art research and development problems? Leidos currently has two exciting openings for machine learning and signal processing engineers to work in our Ann Arbor, Michigan or Beavercreek, Ohio office.

As a machine learning / signal processing engineer, you will apply your skills to a wide variety of problems and datasets, primarily focused on remote sensing (SAR / RF, acoustic, EO / IR, and LIDAR) applications. Current projects include, but are not limited to, detection, tracking, data fusion, and classification. We develop a variety of combat identification (CID) algorithms and specialize in technologies to train these systems on synthetic data. We are looking for a qualified candidate to bring technical excellence, leadership, entrepreneurship, and creativity to our programs. You will interact with customers, grow to lead technical projects areas, and have the opportunity to pursue growth in new technologies. This position requires about three quarters of the job duties to be performed onsite due to the sensitive nature of this work and the desire for in-person collaboration, however we offer flexible in-office hours and the ability to perform some job duties remotely.

The opportunity to transform image and signal data into actionable information awaits!

Primary Responsibilities :

• Working with teams on the research, design, and development of sensor exploitation systems including signal processing, automatic target recognition, and signature modeling.
• Collaborating with our customers to address challenging mission requirements by researching and developing new capabilities as well as making improvements to existing systems.
• Rapidly and iteratively implement new algorithms to address these challenges.
• Develop Automatic Target Recognition (ATR) algorithms using Python, MATLAB, C++, and other languages for real world applications. Leverage state-of-the-art AI / ML tools and methods to improve performance of ATR systems
• Provide technical leadership for tasks and programs

If you're already scheming step 20 while everyone else is still debating step 2... good. You'll fit right in.
