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.
• Prototype and deploy algorithms for tracking, multi-sensor data fusion, and state estimation.
• Develop high-performance Rust software for real-time systems, simulations, and decision-support tools.
• Design robust filters, estimators, and probabilistic reasoning systems for noisy and incomplete sensor data.
• Apply software architecture and design-pattern best practices to manage technical debt.
• Analyze system performance using simulations, modeling tools, and statistical techniques.
• Customize algorithms and software for mission-critical customer use cases.
• Integrate tracking and estimation technologies across requirements, testing, optimization, and production workflows.
• Communicate technical progress and actionable insights to colleagues and end users.

Requirements

• 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 as requirements evolved.
• Experience managing and evolving software architecture in production, including legacy-system refactoring and technical-debt management.
• Strong understanding of software design patterns, architectural principles, and maintainable, scalable systems.
• Proficiency in algorithm design, software development, statistical modeling, Rust, and Python.
• Strong knowledge of linear algebra, optimization, probability, and stochastic processes.
• Familiarity with big data pipelines, NoSQL databases, and large-scale sensor-data processing.
• Ability to engineer systems for estimation theory, adaptive filtering, controls, and complex signal environments.
• Experience across the lifecycle from prototyping through production optimization.
• Eligibility to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.
• Advanced degree is strongly preferred.
• Preferred experience includes production Rust modernization, technical leadership, concurrent and parallel Rust programming, Bayesian filtering, sensor fusion, recursive estimation, machine learning for tracking and recognition, Kalman filters, particle filters, multi-target tracking, and radar, lidar, or EO/IR signal processing.
• Applicants are asked to provide transcripts or detailed relevant-coursework and academic-performance information.

Benefits

• Full-time employees receive comprehensive competitive benefits available at little to no cost.
• Full-time offers generally include highly competitive equity grants as part of total compensation.
