At Lockheed Martin Space, we aim to harness the full potential of space to cultivate innovation, reduce costs, and push the boundaries of what technology can achieve. We're creating future-ready solutions, focusing on resiliency and urgency through our 21st Century Security® vision. We're erasing boundaries and forming partnerships across industries and around the world. We're advancing spacecraft and the workforce to fuel the next generation. And we're reimagining how space can connect us, ensuring security and prosperity. Join us in shaping a new era in space and find a career that's built for you. About the Team You'll collaborate with some of the brightest minds in engineering to design and integrate pioneering capabilities that shape the future of our mission. Our high-impact, cross-functional team delivers cutting-edge perception solutions for a variety of mission-critical platforms. We specialize in classical computer-vision algorithms-feature detection, stereo matching, optical flow-while also integrating modern AI techniques such as semantic segmentation and learned feature representations. Every solution is engineered with the strict hardware constraints of resource-limited processors in mind, including the ultra-low-power, radiation-hardened CPUs typical of space-borne systems., We are seeking a motivated engineer to develop and support the end to end digital simulation platform. The ideal candidate will: * Operate and update the simulation * Conduct statistical analysis & uncertainty quantification via Monte-Carlo simulations, Design-of-Experiments (DoE), sensitivity testing, and algorithm-level error modeling * Develop interactive dashboards, generate plots/reports for stakeholders, and tailor visual output for different audiences * Define test cases, compare simulation results against analytical/ground-truth data, document V&V evidence, and support formal review packages * Debug computer-vision algorithm performance in the simulation by debugging the underlying code and using visualizations to diagnose issues * Collaborate with embedded-hardware, optics, and systems teams to ensure the simulation reflects actual hardware behavior and integrates smoothly with downstream toolchains, Responsible for developing, integrating, and deploying autonomy and artificial intelligence algorithms for mission systems, supporting the technology development life cycle from requirements generation through development, integration, and testing, as well as research in some organizations.Develops, integrates, and implements algorithms to enable perception, motion/mission planning, controls, etc. functionality in LM products and platforms; Translates requirements and applies requirements to development code, integrating autonomy, AI or machine learning algorithms to LM products and platforms; Determines software methods to best acquire and execute knowledge; Implements algorithms into software to train systems to recognize patterns and perform specific functions; Responsible for various phases of developing and maintaining autonomy software from requirements generation, software design and development to integration, testing, troubleshooting and debugging, and implementation; Review test outcomes, conducts troubleshooting, and works to debug issues; Develops human-machine interface scenarios, breaking missions into tasks; Documents interface requirements and implements human-machine interfaces ## Related Videos - [Python Data Visualization @ Deepnote (w/ PyViz overview)](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/113-python-data-visualization-deepnote-w-pyviz-overview) - [Robots 2.0: When artificial intelligence meets steel](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1452-robots-2-0-when-artificial-intelligence-meets-steel) - [Docker Compose: Rediscovered](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1978-docker-compose-rediscovered) - [Vectorize all the things!
