Computer Vision Engineer (TS/SCI)

CFD Research is looking for a Computer Vision Engineer who will develop, and optimize advanced computer vision and multi‑sensor fusion algorithms supporting GEOINT‑mission workflows. The candidate will participate in the development of deep learning models, real‑time tracking systems, and GPU‑accelerated pipelines deployed in operational environments. You will shape next‑generation tools that integrate imaging physics, ML-based behavior inference, and multi‑sensor fusion. CFD Research values first-principles reasoning and physically interpretable models, so experience developing hybrid systems that combine calibrated sensor models, deterministic algorithms, probabilistic inference, and learned components is particularly desirable. Candidates should be motivated by building systems that are scientifically explainable, empirically validated, and capable of operating robustly across both synthetic and real-world sensing environments.

Location: This role is based in the Dayton, OH area, and is 100% onsite.
