Contribute to the development of advanced sensing, tracking, and data fusion capabilities through algorithm development, modeling and simulation, and systems engineering for kinetic and non-kinetic defense systems.
Compensation
The referenced pay range is based on JHU APL’s good faith belief at the time of posting. Actual compensation may vary based on factors such as geographic location, work experience, market conditions, education/training and skill level with consideration for internal parity. For salaried employees scheduled to work less than 40 hours per week, annual salary will be prorated based on the number of hours worked. APL may offer bonuses or other forms of compensation per internal policy and/or contractual designation. Additional compensation may be provided in the form of a sign-on bonus, relocation benefits, locality allowance or discretionary payments for exceptional performance.
Responsibilities
Design, develop, and evaluate algorithms for sensor data processing, target tracking, and multi-sensor information fusion.
Investigate new approaches for integrating information from various sensors and other sources to support kinetic and non-kinetic engagements.
Develop and use modeling and simulation tools to assess algorithm performance and explore new system concepts.
Analyze sensor and system characteristics to understand their impact on tracking, data fusion, and overall system performance.
Conduct technical studies to evaluate alternative algorithms, architectures, and system designs and identify opportunities for performance improvements.
