Job Description:
As a senior member within the Hivemind autonomy team, you will join an ambitious effort to rapidly design, develop, integrate, test, and deploy the multi-target tracking stack for the Hivemind Pilot product line. You will bring a wealth of expertise in the theory of object tracking (e.g., optimal state estimation, sensor integration, data fusion, statistical inference, dynamics modeling) but also expert-level proficiency in modern C++ to personally develop and deploy these algorithms into production. You will collaborate with other autonomy developers and members of the product development team to guide and drive the maturation of the multi-target tracking stack, personally developing features in modern C++ from the ground up, and validating performance through rigorous simulation studies, hardware-in-the-loop efforts, and flight test campaigns. You will play a significant role in advancing the state of the art in AI pilot technology for resilient autonomous systems, providing critical capabilities to our service members and allies.
What you'll do:
- Research and develop world-class object tracking and data association algorithms
- Write production-quality tracking software in C++ that will be deployed on military platforms, ensuring robustness, efficiency, and scalability.
- Develop and maintain comprehensive unit, integration, and system tests to validate your software.
- Enhance sensor models within a state-of-the-art simulation environment
- Collaborate with other team members on product roadmap development, feature decomposition, and capacity planning within an agile development framework
- Work in a fast-paced, collaborative, continuous development environment, enhancing analysis and benchmarking capabilities
Required qualifications:
- Extreme proficiency in modern C++ and object-oriented design patterns
- Professional experience deploying state estimation algorithms (KF, EKF, UKF)
- Demonstrated track record developing innovative solutions to modern multi-target tracking problems
- While familiarity with MATLAB for prototyping and algorithm development is useful, this role demands extensive experience and confidence in deploying production-level code exclusively in C++. Candidates whose primary experience is in MATLAB are unlikely to find this position a good fit.
- Experience with continuous integration (CI) pipelines and automated testing frameworks in C++
Preferred qualifications:
- Experience with the full lifecycle of developing, testing, and deploying airborne EO/IR tracking systems in military environments, including real-time performance optimization in resource-constrained settings
- Experience developing error budgets for tracking accuracy
- Experience developing and deploying multi-hypothesis tracking algorithms
- Professional experience deploying C++ software for DoD acquisition programs
- Experience validating and verifying tracking requirements for DoD customers
- Familiarity with sensor line-of-sight reconstruction and error calibration
- Familiarity with object detection algorithms in visual, SWIR, MWIR, and LWIR bands
- This role can be based remotely or located in one of our offices: San Diego, San Francisco, Dallas, Washington, DC, or Boston.
- Senior: $160,000-$240,000
- Staff: $187,000-$281,000
- Senior Staff: $228,000-$342,000

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene
Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.
Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech
- Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
- Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
- Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
- Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
- Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
- Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
