Required Qualifications
- Active TS/SCI clearance with eligibility for CI Polygraph (we can sponsor your CI poly if you don't already have one)
- Experience exploiting Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imagery and SAR analytical products in support of intelligence or geospatial missions.
- Experience conducting multi-INT analysis and integrating information from multiple intelligence disciplines to support mission objectives.
- Proficiency working with structured, semi-structured, and unstructured datasets using programming, scripting, and visualization tools.
- Strong geospatial analysis skills and the ability to apply emerging technologies, analytical methodologies, and data-driven techniques to solve complex intelligence challenges.
- Experience developing or applying machine learning (ML) and computer vision (CV) techniques to overhead imagery, motion imagery, or geospatial datasets.
- Familiarity with AI/ML workflows supporting imagery exploitation, object detection, and model evaluation.
- Leverage multi-INT data, with an emphasis on Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), to identify, curate, and prepare imagery collected from emerging sensor platforms for AI/ML model development, testing, evaluation, and accreditation.
- Curate imagery that aligns with Government priorities by selecting datasets containing required objects of interest, geographic coverage, scene characteristics, and operationally relevant conditions.
- Evaluate the capabilities and limitations of emerging sensor technologies and recommend data curation strategies that maximize dataset quality and mission value.
- Identify data gaps and recommend additional collections or complementary data sources to improve dataset completeness and support model testing and evaluation.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure curated imagery meets quality standards and is optimized for machine learning and advanced analytics.
