- Active TS/SCI clearance and willingness to take a polygraph exam.
- Bachelor’s degree in a STEM field.
- Preferred: experience administering CI/CD pipelines using Kubernetes, Docker, or Jenkins.
- Preferred: experience with sensor phenomenology, radiometric calibration, remote sensing interpretation, super-resolution, deblurring, spectral exploitation, resolved feature extraction, uncertainty quantification, Kalman filtering, tracking algorithms, AI-augmented development workflows, agentic tools, or GitLab-based CI/CD workflows.
- Preferred: master’s degree in Physics, Mathematics, Computer Science, or a related STEM field.
Benefits
- Health, life, disability, financial, and retirement benefits; paid leave; professional development; tuition assistance; work-life programs; dependent care; and recognition awards.
- Full-time and part-time employees working at least 20 hours per week on a regular basis are eligible for Booz Allen benefit programs, while employees below that threshold receive select offerings excluding health benefits.
