Autonomous Systems Developer artificial intelligence and machine learning
Date: Mar 20, 2023
Location: Lexington, MA, US
Company: MIT Lincoln Laboratory
Group 22—Counter Weapons of Mass Destruction (C-WMD) Systems Group.
The C-WMD Systems Group develops systems and technology for preparedness, as well as the characterization, detection, mitigation, medical response, remediation, and attribution of CBRNE (Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and Explosive) threats. The C-WMD Systems group is seeking a Technical Staff member to support autonomous system development to address key stakeholder needs and further the Group’s core C-WMD mission areas. As an autonomous systems developer you will work with an interdisciplinary team to support the development, deployment, and testing of sensors, support algorithms, and other technologies for advanced autonomous systems. Research and development efforts are generally conducted in collaboration with stakeholder and first responder communities. Developed systems can include anything from laboratory testbeds through operational prototypes.
Job Description
Activities within the group are highly collaborative and multidisciplinary; as a result, the C-WMD Systems Group draws from a very diverse talent pool across the fields of engineering (e.g., electrical, mechanical, chemical, biomedical, general), physics, mathematics, applied mathematics, computer science, chemistry, and biology. Staff members work in a team environment to study a broad range of technical questions of importance and to develop systems to counter the proliferation and use of WMDs. Many of these systems rely on advanced autonomous capabilities. Autonomy research and development topics include one or more of the following: guidance/planning, estimation and feedback control, artificial intelligence and machine learning, and computer vision.
