CACI is looking for a new team member passionate about building the next generation of signal processing algorithms for detecting and geo-locating threats to autonomously react and deploy countermeasures. Our program’s mission is to improve capability to detect and defeat advanced threats while expanding maneuver envelope and autonomous real-time adaptation to a changing electromagnetic and tactical environment.
What You’ll Get to Do:
· Provide research and development of algorithms for distributed sensing concepts such as geolocation techniques, correlation of RF data and multi-sensory data (i.e. RF and EO/IR).
· Research of the state-of-the-art signal processing algorithms.
· Develop and analyze models of novel algorithmic concepts to produce distributed electronic sensing effects for Army aviation payloads.
· Develop RF signal processing algorithms that enable threat detection and identification for employing countermeasures.
· Develop algorithmic approach to detect known and unknown threats using new feature sets
· Investigate heterogeneous sensing concepts across different platforms (i.e. manned and unmanned, high altitude ISR, ALE, etc.). Investigate sensing approaches with passive modes.
· Support technical reviews of vendor software products and deliverables, interface development and development of software algorithms and models for simulation.
· Work with customers (both internal and external to CACI) to help integrate our solutions into a wide variety of applications and use cases
· Debug, test, and validate our capabilities using both unit tests as well as scenarios reported by our end users
Travel to other CACI locations and/or customer sites in the US as necessary (travel requirement is typically 0 - 15%)
You’ll Bring These Qualifications:
· A bachelor’s degree (or higher) in Computer Science or Electrical Engineering or equivalent technical degree.
· 5+ years related work experience.
· Understanding of principles in RF fields and propagation, Radar, and Electronic Warfare.

· Proficiency in Modeling and Simulation (i.e. Matlab).
· Ability to read and understand technical specifications, and create software-based implementations of the procedures and methods described therein
· Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
· Minimum Secret Clearance and the ability to obtain/maintain an US Government Clearance at the TS/SCI level.
These Qualifications Would be Nice to Have:
· A drive to continuously improve and refine existing capabilities alongside new development opportunities.
· Ability to work with a distributed team and manage your time effectively across multiple, simultaneous projects.
· Knowledge in Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning concepts
· C/C++/Python programming experience, shown through project work or code examples
