Collaboration - Partner with peer engineering organizations, chief engineer offices, and external stakeholders to ensure seamless technology transfer and alignment with customer requirements.
Research & Innovation - Conduct applied research, evaluate emerging AI/ML techniques, and publish technical findings to keep RMS at the forefront of the field.
Deployment & Support - Transition prototypes to deployable solutions, assist with integration testing, and provide post-deployment technical support to customers.
Mentorship - Coach junior engineers on signal-processing theory, AI/ML best practices, and software development standards
Who We Are
Rotary and Mission Systems is a culture of innovators driven by integrity and visionary thinking. We empower our people with the tools, training, and autonomy to push technological boundaries while upholding the highest business-ethics standards. Our AI team works hand-in-hand with product lines to embed intelligent capabilities into defense platforms worldwide.
Who You Are
Education & Experience - Bachelor's (or higher) in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Applied Mathematics, or related field; 8+ years of professional experience in signal processing and AI/ML.
Technical Mastery - Deep expertise in digital signal processing, spectral analysis, sensor fusion, and machine-learning frameworks (TensorFlow, PyTorch, etc.).
Software & DevOps Skills - Proficient in C/C++, Python, Linux, containerization (Docker/Kubernetes), and CI/CD tooling.
Leadership Ability - Proven track record of leading technical teams, influencing cross-functional groups, and delivering complex projects on schedule.
Communication - Excellent verbal and written skills; able to translate technical concepts for diverse audiences, including senior leadership and customers.
Clearance - Ability to obtain and maintain a Secret (or higher) security clearance.
Why Join Us
Impactful Work - Directly contribute to AI-driven defense systems that protect our nation and allies.
Cutting-Edge Environment - Access to a high-performance compute cluster and a culture that encourages experimentation and rapid prototyping.
Career Growth - Mentorship, continuous learning opportunities, and clear pathways to senior technical or leadership roles.
Competitive Rewards - Market-leading compensation, comprehensive benefits, and the pride of being part of a globally respected organization.
