Software Engineer- Activity-Based Intelligence

GA-CCRi maintains and deploys production systems for users across the Intelligence Community, Department of Defense, and commercial industry. We build and develop best-in-class all domain and globally focused situational awareness capabilities, including THRESHER and DRAGONSPELL, that process petabytes of data from numerous streaming data sources in near real time. Our systems apply state-of-the-art algorithms and machine learning techniques to extract features and fuse data from multiple phenomenologies to form a rich live view of objects in the sky, on the sea, and on the ground. These analytics are designed to determine not just where something is, but what it is, where it's been and what it's doing. All of this "data to knowledge" is made available to end users in our own browser-based application for visualization, analysis, and understanding. We always want to do more, and that's where you come in!

GA-CCRi's Activity-Based Intelligence team is looking for a mid-level software engineer with a back-end focus to work with a multidisciplinary team whose mission is to help users identify, view, and interact with activities between entities (e.g., aircraft) and across domains (e.g., air+maritime). GA-CCRi's streaming geospatial data platform handles billions of records a day and houses petabytes of historical information, enabling rich and impactful analytics, and giving users the ability to keep track of the most relevant information right now, or dive into detailed history.

This role will be primarily on-site at our office in Charlottesville, VA. We’d really love to have dedicated, team-oriented engineers who are willing to learn and join the team!
