About the Role

The Autonomous Systems Engineer will be focus on sensor data processing and the development of algorithms used to fuse multiple sensors for unmanned, autonomous, submersible systems. This role requires an understanding of data processing and data fusion at the edge, from multiple sensors (acoustic, magnetic, etc.), to enable mission-level autonomous decision making. This includes developing and implementing data fusion algorithms as well as decision making algorithms to demonstrate autonomy capabilities for submersible systems. The Autonomous Systems Engineer will assist in large, multi-year subsea data intelligence research programs with an emphasis on autonomous sense-making, and mission-driven use of subsea and oceanographic datasets. This role will assist in the development of a decision support framework for uncrewed underwater vehicles capable of adapting in real time to changing environmental conditions.

Many of our projects focus on using sensor-informed edge-deployed models running onboard uncrewed platforms (e.g., uncrewed surface vessels and uncrewed underwater vessels) to make real-time assessments of mission goals and provide the operators of uncrewed systems with decision aids to maximize mission outcomes. Executing this approach for maritime systems, which may involve multiple uncrewed or autonomous systems operating together to achieve a given mission, requires holistic system-wide modeling and simulation approach with a distillation of relevant factors correlated with mission outcomes. Therefore, we are particularly interested in candidates who have experience in extracting critical mission-relevant data from dense sources (e.g., modeling and simulation tools, sensors such as acoustic or magnetic, and / or machinery control systems) and translating that into actionable, mission-level information for autonomous decision making at the edge.

Integer is a science and technology research and development organization. As such, much of our work entails developing solutions for complex problems that presently have no known solutions. To achieve internal and customer project goals all candidates must be able to perform research, understand new concepts from other engineering disciplines on advanced and complex topics, and document findings in a way that is easy for non-experts to understand.
