Datalink Engineer

About the role

Our C4ISR team requires a skilled contractor to provide in-depth analysis of algorithms employed in adversary Integrated Air Defense Systems (IADS). This role demands a keen understanding of IADS architecture and the ability to interpret, analyze, and produce written assessments on algorithms governing critical functions.

This includes, but is not limited to, dissecting multitarget track-to-fusion algorithms like Global Nearest Neighbor (GNN), evaluating threat evaluation algorithms employing methods like adaptive weighting or TOPSIS, and deciphering weapons pairing methodologies. Given the complexity of these tasks, a background in engineering or mathematics is highly desirable.

The selected candidate will contribute directly to our understanding of adversary capabilities, shaping national security strategies through insightful reporting and collaboration with intelligence community partners.
