About this role
Job Number: R0242685
Remote Sensing Software Engineer, Senior
The Opportunity
As a Senior Remote Sensing Software Engineer, you will architect advanced SDA and remote sensing exploitation pipelines, guide technical direction, and lead multi-disciplinary teams building high-fidelity space observation analytics. You will shape next‑generation tools that integrate imaging physics, ML-based behavior inference, and multi‑sensor fusion.
You’ll join a collaborative technical delivery team where you’ll contribute to secure, reliable, user‑centric tools that accelerate mission outcomes.
What You'll Do:
- Architect end‑to‑end remote sensing processing systems for EO/IR missions
- Lead development of radiometric and spectral response models
- Oversee advanced imaging algorithms including multi-frame super-resolution, deconvolution, target phenomenology detection, and low-SNR enhancement
- Direct ML‑based anomaly detection, behavior classification, and object discrimination frameworks
- Design multi-sensor fusion pipelines integrating GEOINT, Radar, RF, and optical data using Bayesian or ML-based methods
- Lead trajectory estimation and 3D kinematic modeling, including IOD, parallax exploitation, and uncertainty quantification
- Architect scalable scientific computing solutions using Python, C++, CUDA, HPC clusters, or cloud-native platforms
- Mentor junior engineers and help set technical road maps in collaboration with client and mission leadership
Join us. The world can’t wait.
You Have:
- 8+ years of experience in remote sensing, image or signal processing, or GEOINT data exploitation
- Experience with orbital mechanics, satellite characterization, Domain-specific applications or SDA operational workflows
- Experience with Python, scientific Python packages or other Object-oriented programming languages such as C++ or JavaScript
- Experience architecting with large-scale software environments such as CUDA, HPC or cloud
- Experience...
