About this role

ABOUT THE JOB

Valkyrie Aero is seeking a software engineer to develop computer vision and sensor fusion software for an airborne mission system. Software Engineers in this role develop real-time detection, classification, and tracking software, fuse multiple sensor inputs into a single track picture, and deliver track state to the control software and operator interface. This includes model development and evaluation, inference optimization for embedded hardware, and the dataset pipeline. This is a fully remote position.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

Develop real-time detection, classification, and multi-object tracking on live sensor feeds
Fuse inputs from multiple sensors into a single track picture
Design, train, and evaluate models against latency and accuracy targets for embedded deployment
Optimize inference on embedded hardware, including pruning, quantization, and TensorRT
Develop and maintain the dataset pipeline, including collection, labeling, curation, augmentation, synthetic data, and retraining from field data
Establish the evaluation framework and metrics, measured under operational conditions
Deliver track state (position, velocity, identity, uncertainty) to control software and the operator interface
Develop backend services and APIs as required
Work with hardware engineers on camera, optics, and sensor selection
Support integration and test, including diagnosing and resolving issues on target hardware

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

Professional experience developing real-time computer vision and multi-object tracking pipelines
Experience delivering detection or tracking systems to production under latency, small-object, and adversarial conditions

•Experience with sensor fusion

Experience with backend, integration, and systems software in addition to perception

•Proficiency in Python and C++

Experience working with hardware and real-time data

•Must be a U.S. citizen

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

Experience with PyTorch, TensorRT, ONNX, DeepStream, or GStreamer
Experience with thermal, infrared, or multispectral imaging
Experience with multi-modal sensor fusion across EO/IR, radar, or acoustic sensors
Experience with synthetic data generation and sim-to-real
