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.

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
