Job Code: 9316

Job Location: Rochester, NY, or Herndon, VA, or Melbourne, FL

Job Description:

L3Harris has an immediate opening for a Lead Image Science Engineer. Image Scientists are responsible for providing image expertise in support of developing analytical processes and tools as well as assessing image quality impacts associated with collection and processing for dissemination, archival, exploitation and display of digital imagery. An image scientist focuses on Modeling, Simulation, & Analysis (MSA) works to model image sensing systems, utilizes those models to simulate data produced by the systems, and analyzes simulated results in comparison to desired data quality.

Essential Functions:

• Provides image science expertise to conduct image/product quality analysis throughout TCPED chain.

• Assess utility of image processing routines and advanced algorithms operating on today’s baseline and emerging remote sensing systems.

• Investigates, analyzes, and provides solutions to complex problems encountered by engineering services and quality control using standard engineering practices.

• Authors technical documents and presentations.

• Provides guidance and technical expertise to other engineers and leadership.
