SLD Algorithm Engineer Lead - TRK with Security Clearance

• Company: Northrop Grumman
• Location: 1200 Redstone Gateway SW, Huntsville, AL 35808
• Duration: long term, ongoing contract – we are a direct sub to the C2BMC program
• Clearance: Secret, will hold TS if you already have it • Program – C2BMC "Position Responsibilities As a member of the Regional Applications Agile Release Train (ART) of the Missile Defense National Team for Command and Control, Battle Management, and Communications (C2BMC) (aka C2BMC NT), this position will be a key contributor to the design and development of Java-based mathematical algorithms in support of the C2BMC System Discrimination (SLD).

The candidate will help generate algorithm design artifacts, implement MATLAB and/or Java-based software changes, support design and code reviews, and support software testing and resolution of issues arising from software testing. The candidate will be involved in presenting developed designs. Candidate may also be required to design, develop, or oversee implementation of algorithms into a Java-based real-time system and should have experience with tactical code development. Candidate will actively participate in agile planning and execution using established C2BMC processes.

Basic Qualifications Candidate should have 7+ years of experience in the design and development of complex, mathematical algorithms in the areas of data fusion, transferable belief model, signal processing, sensor discrimination/classification, or Kalman filtering.

Technical Skills: Key Words • Full Life-Cycle Development • Algorithm development • Data Fusion • Software implementation of mathematical algorithms • Data Analysis • Whitepaper/concept development • Agile development • MATLAB • Python • DEVSECOPS • Systems Integration • Unix/Linux • Radar signal processing• Experience in analysis, test, and verification of algorithm design and performance• Experience in developing algorithm prototypes and overseeing transition to real-time tactical implementation• Experience with strong problem-solving skills, including the ability to review system behavior issues, identify root cause and recommend a solution• The successful candidate will have good verbal and written communication skills, have the ability to work independently, and be able to work in a highly dynamic environment• Candidate will need to be able to work with multiple disciplinary teams including Systems Engineering, Integration and Test, Deployment and Warfighter Support to help ensure mission success

Preferred Qualifications • Missile Defense sensor discrimination knowledge / experience• Experienced in the full life-cycle development of complex mathematical algorithms (such as data fusion, tracking, correlation, guidance, battle management, and radar management) for Java-based military applications• Experience of developing software within an agile development process, decomposition of work, and active leadership during sprint planning• Experience developing algorithms and/or software in a structured, process-based integrated team environment• Experience developing software within a DEVSECOPS framework for Java-based applications in a Unix/Linux platform environment• Experience with git/GitLab, eclipse, Maven/Gradle and SonarQube or similar toolsets• Experience with development of automated unit tests and verification of requirements• Experience with the review of system engineering artifacts such as ICDs, uses cases and sequence diagrams• Preparation of software design artifacts and presentation of design materials and test results to internal and external customers• Candidate may also be involved in the implementation of MATLAB (or Python) based algorithms prior to their adoption into tactical Java-based software• Experience working within the BMDS domain preferred• Experience with Command and Control system application development and software integration testing are also positives• Security+ certification is not required but a definite plus for this position"
