SAR Imagery Scientist

SAR Imagery Scientist

Location:

Springfield, VA – full-time onsite position.

• Experience with Synthetic Aperture Radar imagery analytical products and conducting multi-INT analysis.
• Utilize structured, unstructured, and semi-structured data and visualization tools to exploit data through programming and scripting, including advanced geospatial skills and an excellent understanding of how to apply evolving technology and methodologies to related issues.
• Leverage multi-INT data, with an emphasis on SAR, to curate imagery from the emergent sensors. Curated imagery will be prioritized for creation of labeled data to support the model evaluation and accreditation. Curated imagery should have objects of interest or needed characteristics (e.g., geographic coverage, scene attributes) per Government prioritization.
• Based on the characteristics and limitations of the emergent sensor, recommend curation strategies and identify data gaps to develop a diverse, representative dataset for Machine Leaming model evaluation.

• 6+ years of experience; BA/BS can account for 4 years while a MA/MS can account for 6 years of experience.
• 4+ years as a SAR expert with understanding of collection, phenomenology, image formation process, and exploitation products.

• Experience applying CV and machine learning (ML) techniques to SAR imagery and data to address intelligence problems.

• An active TS/SCI clearance with the ability to obtain and maintain a polygraph.

• Must be able to remain in a stationary position for extended periods while performing imagery analysis and reporting.
• Must be able to occasionally move about the work area to collaborate with team members and access mission systems.
• Must be able to communicate effectively with co-workers, management, and customers to exchange accurate information and present analytic findings.
