    • Study the state-of-the-art literature and develop algorithms to extract the best navigation performance.
    • Implement algorithms in MATLAB/Simulink to implement quick-turn proof of concept prototypes to quantify accuracy and observability improvements to be expected from new sensors and algorithms.
    • Collaborate with software engineers to productionize code.
    • Analyze simulated and flight test data to characterize algorithm performance and identify failure modes.
    • Other duties as assigned.
    Projects that you might work on:
    • Research and implement vision processing algorithms to infer aircraft position from real-time aircraft imagery.
    • Collaborate with industry partners and customers to define best practices for GNSS-denied navigation.
    • Architect GNSS-denied navigation solutions under tight size, weight, and power constraints.
    Required qualifications:
    • M.S. in Aerospace Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or another related field.
    • Typically requires a minimum of 9 years and a master's degree; or 7 years with a PhD; or equivalent work experience.
    • Expertise with state estimation and sensor fusion algorithms such as Kalman Filters, Particle Filters, and other estimation methods.
    • Experience in vision-based navigation, visual inertial odometry (VIO) and other related techniques.
    • Experience designing and delivering GNSS-denied navigation solutions for commercial/military customers.
    • Experience with alternative navigation sources such as celestial navigation, magnetic navigation, etc.
    • Proficient in MATLAB/Simulink
    • Experience with C in a Linux development environment.
    Preferred qualifications:
    • PhD in Aerospace Enginering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related field.
    • Image processing experience including visual odometry, visual feature detection matching, and photometric alignment.
    • Strong command of modern C
    • Experience with factor graphs and other graph-based estimation techniques.
    • Proven experience with modern software engineering best practices in algorithms, data structures, and clean code methodologies

About San Diego, California

According to SDSU professor emeritus Monte Marshall, San Diego Bay is "the surface expression of a north-south-trending, nested graben". The Rose Canyon and Point Loma fault zones are part of the San Andreas Fault system. About 40 miles (64 km) east of the bay are the Laguna Mountains in the Peninsular Ranges, which are part of the backbone of the American continents. The city lies on approximately 200 deep canyons and hills separating its mesas, creating small pockets of natural open space scattered throughout the city and giving it a hilly geography. Traditionally, San Diegans have built the...
