The Intelligent Combat Platforms Group at APL is looking to advance the state-of-the-art in autonomous systems, uncrewed air platforms, artificial intelligence, software design, embedded systems, virtual reality, and simulation to ensure the nation maintains an operational advantage on the future battlefield.
Requirements
- Are skilled in C++, Python, and software design patterns.
- Have experience with applications for physical systems such as mechanical, aerospace, or robotics.
- 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-Sharp, 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.
Responsibilities
- Work on collaborative 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.
Other
- Are able to obtain an Interim Secret security clearance by your start date and can ultimately obtain a Secret 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.
