You'll work collaboratively with a team of talented engineers and data scientists to push the boundaries of what's possible with remote sensing technology.

Responsibilities

  • Process and analyze complex SAR imagery from space-based platforms.
  • Design, develop, and implement novel algorithms for SAR data exploitation, including object detection, change detection, feature extraction.
  • Utilize Python and its scientific computing libraries (e.g., NumPy, SciPy, Pandas) for data manipulation, algorithm prototyping, and tool development.
  • Validate algorithm performance against ground truth data and established benchmarks.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate SAR processing capabilities into larger analytical systems and workflows.

Qualifications

  • Education
  • BS in EE, Remote Sensing, Physics, CS, or a related technical field.

  • Experience
  • 5+ years in SAR data processing and analysis.

  • Technical Skills
  • - Demonstrated proficiency in Python for scientific programming and data analysis.
    - A strong theoretical understanding of SAR fundamentals, including image formation principles, scattering physics, and radar polarimetry.
    - Experience handling common SAR data formats (e.g., GeoTIFF).

  • Soft Skills
  • The ability to work effectively both independently and in a team environment.
Competitive salary and benefits package.
Opportunities for professional development and career growth.
A dynamic and collaborative work environment where innovation is encouraged.
