Software Engineer, Rust

Responsibilities

• Define and influence the direction of a small team using subject-matter expertise in target tracking and state estimation.
• Architect, maintain, refactor, and evolve complex production software systems for performance, maintainability, and scalability.
• Develop and deploy algorithms for tracking, multi-sensor data fusion, and state estimation.
• Build high-performance Rust software for real-time tactical systems, simulations, and decision-support tools.
• Implement filters, estimators, probabilistic reasoning systems, and estimation technologies for noisy or incomplete sensor data.
• Analyze system performance through high-fidelity simulations, modeling tools, and statistical techniques.
• Customize algorithms and software for mission-critical customer use cases.
• Contribute across the software lifecycle from requirements definition through testing and optimization.
• Communicate technical progress and actionable insights to colleagues and end-users.

Requirements

• At least 5 years of professional software engineering experience and a bachelor's degree in mathematics, physics, engineering, or another technical field.
• At least 2 years working on a single codebase or product while maintaining and expanding it as requirements evolved.
• Experience managing and evolving software architecture in production, including legacy-system refactoring and technical-debt management.
• Strong knowledge of software design patterns, architectural principles, and maintainable, scalable system development.
• Proficiency in algorithm design, software development, statistical modeling, Rust, and Python.
• Understanding of linear algebra, optimization, probability, and stochastic processes.
• Familiarity with big data pipelines, NoSQL databases, and large-scale sensor data.
• Experience engineering systems involving estimation theory, adaptive filtering, controls, and complex signal environments.
• Ability to work from prototyping through production optimization.
• Eligibility to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.
• Advanced degree strongly preferred.
• Preferred experience includes production Rust modernization, concurrent and parallel programming, open-source Rust contributions, state estimation, Bayesian filtering, sensor fusion, recursive estimation, machine learning for tracking and recognition, Kalman filters, particle filters, JPDA, MHT, PHD filters, and radar, lidar, or EO/IR signal processing.

Benefits

• Comprehensive competitive benefits available at little to no cost for full-time employees.
• Highly competitive equity grants are included in the majority of full-time offers.
• Applicants may submit unofficial transcripts and may redact non-technical information.
