Autonomy Development Lead with Security Clearance - Laurel, United States - Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory
Description
Are you passionate about developing new capabilities to support our nation's security based on cutting-edge research? Do you consider yourself a highly motivated leader who can enable team success? Are you ready to help intelligent systems transition from the laboratory environment to the real world? If so, we are looking for someone like you to join our team at APL We are seeking an experienced technical leader who can lead a motivated and growing team of software developers and test engineers working to support sponsors across the Department of Defense.
We have developed a state-of-the-art hardware and software application called TACE (Testing of Autonomy in Complex Environments) that serves as an interface between autonomy and AI algorithms on one side and aircraft and mission systems on the other side.
This application combines safety and live-virtual-constructive (LVC) simulation functionality into a single tool that can support a range of autonomy development activities.
TACE has been delivered to the Air Force, Navy and Army and continues to be supported by a range of sponsors.
TACE is a central part of our overall autonomy development strategy and is expected to have a growing role over the next few years as we integrate test and evaluation support into our AI competition environments.
Candidates with leadership experience from all technical fields are encouraged to apply. Creativity and critical thinking are far more important than experience with AI systems. As an Autonomy Development Lead...* Your primary responsibility will be enabling team success by decomposing high-level project objectives and balancing short- and long-term development priorities.
* You will work closely with sponsors, project management, and developers to design, create, test, and deploy high-quality software and hardware for a range of sponsors.
* You will be the primary technical leader on the team, responsible for setting the development direction, ensuring that tasks are completed on schedule, that quality standards are met, and that customer needs are satisfied.
* You will also have a role in mentoring a team of highly motivated engineers across a range of experience levels.
Qualifications You meet our minimum qualifications for the job if you... * Have a Bachelor's degree in Computer/Software Engineering, Computer Science, Applied Mathematics, or another related technical discipline.
