- Experience across the lifecycle from prototyping through production optimization.
- Eligibility to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.
- Preferred experience modernizing production Rust codebases, making architectural decisions, and providing technical leadership on long-lived projects.
- Preferred contributions to open-source Rust projects or the Rust ecosystem and experience with concurrent and parallel programming in Rust.
- Preferred experience with state estimation, Bayesian filtering, sensor fusion, recursive estimation, machine learning for tracking and recognition, and signal processing.
- Preferred knowledge of Kalman filters, particle filters, JPDA, MHT, PHD filters, radar, lidar, and EO/IR sensor data.
Benefits
- Competitive benefits package for full-time employees available at little to no cost.
- Highly competitive equity grants are included in the majority of full-time offers.
