About the Team
The Maritime Domain Applications (MDA) Group is seeking a Senior Scientist to develop advanced sensing concepts utilizing adaptive signal processing, resource management, and advanced algorithm development, as well as executing advanced sensor concept demonstrations.
The Role:
A successful candidate will have a strong technical foundation and an interest in solving challenging problems in sensing, signal processing, and complex physical systems. Relevant backgrounds may include signal processing, radar, optical or remote sensing, applied mathematics, physics, computer science, optimization, or related disciplines. Specific radar sensor experience is valuable but not required—we are interested in people who can bring strong analytical skills and new perspectives to difficult sensing problems.
Our work spans the development of new algorithms and sensing concepts through their implementation in efficient software for real-world systems. Candidates may contribute by developing advanced algorithms, modeling complex sensing environments, exploiting underlying physics, applying AI/ML techniques, or translating mathematical concepts into high-performance software. This position involves working as part of multidisciplinary teams to develop, analyze, implement, and test solutions to challenging sensing problems. Strong technical, interpersonal, communication, and problem-solving skills are desired.
