These test tools will help assure the safety and performance of the novel capabilities deployed in operational environments by our service members.

As a Machine Learning Engineer you will..... Leverage and advance machine-learning approaches to evaluate the performance of autonomous systems.

Apply the fields of data science and statistics to verify autonomous decision processes. Develop and implement full-lifecycle testing software for assuring autonomous behavior.

This includes interface and standards definition, agile software development, simulation-based tool development, field-testing, full-scope documentation, and technical reviews.

Design, develop and configure simulation environments used to test and evaluate autonomy algorithms in autonomous systems.

Plan, complete, and analyze field tests and experiments. Qualifications You meet our minimum requirements for the job if you.

Possess a Bachelor’s degree in Software Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field, such as Robotics, Physics, or Mathematics.

Have 5+ years of relevant software development expertise. Have 3+ years of experience applying and developing machine-learning algorithms, particularly in the areas of imitation and reinforcement learning.

Have demonstrated full-lifecycle software development experience in either C++, Python, or Java. Are passionate about software design, software engineering, and developing groundbreaking tools for autonomous platforms.

Possess strong organization and planning skills, with record of accomplishment in a team environment. Have excellent interpersonal skills and outstanding written and oral communications skills.

Are able to work within the government infrastructure and address leadership roles in a diverse environment of contractors, government, and user staff.

Are able to obtain an interim Secret level security clearance by you start date and can ultimately obtain a final Secret level clearance.

If selected, you will be subject to a government security clearance investigation and must meet the requirements for access to Secret classified information.

Eligibility requirements include U.S citizenship. You'll go above and beyond our minimum requirements if you... Have a Master of Science in Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence, Computer Science, or a related technical field.

Have significant experience in developing machine-learning-based test and evaluation software. Have significant experience developing and integrating autonomous maritime systems.
