Job Description

About Us :

STR's Intelligence Division researches and develops advanced analytics and software solutions to solve challenging problems relevant to national security. Our team specializes in applying cutting-edge machine learning and computer vision in areas such as biosecurity, mixed reality and autonomous agents to solve national security and intelligence problems. We tackle complex technical challenges under stringent operational constraints by leveraging diverse skill sets from fields such as engineering, computer science, and applied machine learning.

Our projects focus on a wide range of data modalities—including egocentric data, video and imagery, geospatial, and radio-frequency data—powered by the latest advances in deep learning and statistical techniques. Our solutions have real-world impact, allowing U.S. Government analysts and operators to extract and enrich intelligence information across the globe. If you're motivated by making a difference while working in a collaborative and fast-paced environment and have experience with systems integration, robust application development, and messaging pipelines, we'd like to hear from you.

The Role :

As a Software Engineer, you will use your software development expertise to build custom prototype applications to demonstrate cognitive mixed reality vulnerabilities. You will work with scientists and researchers to implement user test platforms and custom scenarios in the unity development framework for deployment onto a diverse set of mixed reality devices. As part of this role, you will :

• Work with stakeholders to define features for prototype scenarios
• Build, maintain, and test stable user-facing applications for user studies and demonstrations on mixed reality devices
• Implement experimentation platform features such as advanced logging of pose, video imagery, and eye tracker data, sometimes pulling from less readily accessible data streams (on device, embedded, or otherwise)
• Test and support long-term stability for unity build deployment to multiple end stream hardware devices and multiple user types
• Participate in cross-program collaboration, adapting to diverse projects and tools

Our work involves projects of national significance, and the ability to work on-site in our Arlington, VA location will be required
