Job Description:

Job Description: We are looking for a dynamic leader who can build an Algorithm and Data Strategy Architect for IMS, working in coordination with IMS engineering leadership and other applicable L3Harris Segment teams. The position requires a combination of engineering and business development skills to craft advanced solutions to complex problems, capture funding necessary for development of innovative sensors and systems, and help guide the successful development of industry-leading products. The ideal candidate should have experience with the following: * Customer-Focused Requirements Development - demonstrated ability to enter the customer's environment, find out how the customer will use the system, and translate that voice of customer into requirements and trade-offs that can be evaluated via alternative designs; additional skill in successfully influencing system requirements at the end customer desired * Creative Solutions - direct contribution to technical solutions that integrate multiple disciplines or technologies into non-obvious system architectures that provide meaningfully unique and differentiated capability; requires understanding of current and proposed competitive solutions, key performance indicators, and end-user mission objectives as well as understanding of interplay between technologies and engineering design * System Modeling and Simulation - track record of developing models for operational environments, performing trade studies and sensitivity analyses, and comparing alternative architectures with system performance estimates and pragmatic estimation of unknown parameters * Test & Verification - can articulate what and how key system performance parameters should be tested early, can outline and write verification test plans for subsystem and system elements, can perform the testing and analyze the results Essential Duties and Responsibilities: The Algorithm & Data Strategy Architect will lead the Algorithm and Data Strategy initiative for IMS and ensure alignment of activities to the broader L3Harris algorithm and data strategy at the corporate level. Duties in support of the position include, but are not limited to: * Maintain knowledge of advances of algorithm and data strategy capabilities in industry and academia * Develop and propose new research directions in algorithm and data strategy in support of L3Harris' internal research and development program and sponsors research programs * Evaluate algorithm and data solutions and compare to sponsor requirements and needs * Translate the voice of the customer into system level requirements * Perform requirement traceability methods and purpose * Develop and evaluate trade studies for accuracy and completeness Evaluate alternative solutions and establish preliminary system designs * Conduct discussions with end-users to understand intelligence gaps the algorithms need to close. * Interface with data providers to ensure proper training data is available to support algorithm development. * Coordinate with synthetic data generation groups to supplement available training data to support development of an accurate, efficient, and robust algorithms. * Review and evaluate diagrams to ensure design details trace to system requirements * Prepare effective presentations to communicate technical network information to non-technical professionals * Develop strategy for leveraging third party algorithms * Manage Segment Intellectual Property and data rights portfolio and strategy * Design & develop system architectures, define key capabilities, performance requirements, interface definitions, and technology maturity constraints * Define system concept of operations (CONOPS) and implementation approaches that meet mission requirements * Develop models and architectural guidelines for future system development * Provide proposal strategy development and review as required * Advance knowledge of machine learning and artificial intelligence theory and applied techniques within the Segment * Be a business partner with Sectors and Divisions * Work directly with the Sector and Division IRAD leads to ensure good alignment of IR&D activities * Challenge teams to ensure we have the optimum IR&D plans * Serve as SME for systems architecture and train others to use these techniques * Coach and lead practical problem solving activities including the collation and analysis of data, root cause analyses, design of experiments and lead projects to implement change for complex problems * Liaise with the other Segment architects for best practices * Attend Monthly reviews and capture summary and actions * Monthly status reporting and Corporate HQ reporting * Weekly status reporting * Role can be located: Plano, Greenville, Rockwall, Waco Texas; Waco, Texas; Lafayette, Louisiana; Anaheim, Santa Rosa, Sylmar, Santa Barbara, Goleta California; Salt Lake City, Utah; Palm Bay, Florida; Camden, New Jersey; Mason, Ohio; Orlando; Florida.
