STR’s Intelligence Division researches, develops, and transitions advanced analytics and machine-learning solutions for challenging national-security problems. Our team includes engineers and researchers with advanced backgrounds in engineering, computer science, mathematics, and data science who apply deep technical expertise and creativity to mission-critical challenges.

Our work spans data analysis, deep learning, and statistical methods across networking, communications, social media, text, time series, geospatial, and imagery data. We develop capabilities under constraints not typically encountered in commercial environments. U.S. Government analysts use our tools and technologies to extract, enrich, and act on intelligence information worldwide.

The Role

As an Applied AI Engineer, you will develop, integrate, test, and maintain software that supports advanced analytics, machine learning, and intelligence workflows, with a focus on RF sensing, waveform generation, communications, and networking systems. You will work with a multidisciplinary team to transform defined requirements and technical designs into reliable, maintainable, and mission-relevant software capabilities.

You will contribute across the development lifecycle, including implementation, debugging, testing, documentation, integration, and operational support. This role provides opportunities to grow technical depth and independently own well-defined components within larger systems.

This is a technical individual-contributor role. You will independently execute well-scoped technical tasks, communicate progress and blockers, and seek guidance when requirements, interfaces, or technical decisions require clarification.
