## Description

The team is seeking an Software/Algorithm Engineer with a strong background in sensor fusion, algorithm development, and autonomous perception to support current and future development efforts. The successful applicant will own the full lifecycle of key algorithms that enable aircraft based fusion and autonomous decision making. Responsibilities include contributing to software requirements, algorithm design, mode development, design reviews, and testing of operational flight ready, sensor fusion software.

As an Software/Algorithm Engineer on the Sensor Fusion team, you will be critical to ensuring we stay "ahead of ready" and continue to lead the Sensor Fusion domain. In this role, you will:

 - Develop the vision for integration of new technologies, sensors, and capabilities into our programs.
 - Write high quality, embedded C++ Sensor Fusion software products that are deployed across multiple platforms and run on real-time operating systems.
 - Stage algorithms in high-fidelity simulation for feasibility studies and operational analysis, pushing the operational effectivity of our warfighter.
 - Represent the organization as a subject matter expert in your sub-domain.
 - Coordinate with other fusion sub-disciplines to ensure integration of your algorithms across core fusion domains.
 - Define pathways for incorporation into a highly reusable, next generation multi platform Fusion Engine that will serve future autonomous systems.
