Overview
Position: Senior Imagery Applications Engineer - Remote Sensing & Intelligence
Location: Virginia, USA Salary: $160,000-$200,000 Clearance: Active U.S. Top Secret (TS) required, SCI eligibility preferred
Overview:
We are seeking a highly specialized
Imagery Applications Engineer
with deep experience in
COTS or GOTS imagery software development
for the
Department of Defense and Intelligence Community (IC) . This is
not a generic software engineering role . The ideal candidate has 5+ years of
hands-on experience building, deploying, or supporting imagery analysis tools -including NITF, FMV, LiDAR, HSI, and radar-based platforms-for defense and intelligence missions.
You will be part of a cross-functional team developing software components, image processing capabilities, and geospatial tools that directly support mission-critical applications in remote sensing, photogrammetry, and ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance) operations.
Key Responsibilities: Design and develop imagery analysis capabilities using C++ or C# for defense/IC applications. Implement and optimize image processing workflows for EO MS/HSI, SAR, LiDAR, TIR, FMV, and multisensor fusion. Work with formats and standards including
NITF ,
TFRD , and
MISB-compliant FMV . Integrate third-party or community libraries (e.g., AGITK, MSP) into software platforms. Collaborate with users and analysts to translate mission requirements into deployable tools. Assist with pipeline optimization and radiometric/geometric corrections for complex sensors. Contribute to secure software development in classified environments. Required Qualifications:
5+ years of professional experience in
imagery-focused software development
for COTS or GOTS tools. Experience in the DoD or Intelligence Community
with imagery exploitation workflows. Proficiency in
C++ or C# , with application to imagery processing or visualization. Direct knowledge of
remote sensing ,
photogrammetry , or
imagery analysis systems . Hands-on familiarity with tools like
ENVI ,
Socet GXP ,
RemoteView , or similar. Working knowledge of
NITF ,
FMV , and related DoD/IC data formats. Bachelor's in computer science, remote sensing, geospatial sciences, or related technical field. Active U.S. Top Secret clearance ; SCI eligibility strongly preferred. Preferred Qualifications:
Master's or PhD in remote sensing, computer science, or related field. Experience with ArcGIS or Esri SDKs/APIs. Expertise in imagery pipeline optimization and algorithm performance tuning. Familiarity with data exploitation frameworks in classified environments.
Why This Role Stands Out:
You'll have the opportunity to shape mission-critical imagery tools used by national security teams. This role is ideal for someone who thrives at the intersection of
imagery science and software engineering -not generalists, but domain experts who understand
sensor data, image analysis, and DoD/IC workflows.
