Job Description:
R-00133280 Description The Guidance, Navigation, Control, and
Autonomy Branch of the Leidos Innovations Center provides
cutting-edge navigation for customers who can't rely on GPS alone,
and we need your help in the Rocket City (Huntsville, AL)! This
position offers both analytic and hands-on tasks, including
development, simulation, analysis, and field testing of navigation
algorithmsWe perform research, development, and advanced
prototyping for DARPA, NASA, Air Force Research Laboratory, Office
of Naval Research, and Army Combat Capabilities Development Command
engineering centersThese customers need to get our advanced
technology into the field! You'll work with other engineers in
small teams using spiral or agile development to meet aggressive
schedules aimed at near-term field demonstrationsAre you excited
about making advanced technologies work in the real world? Then we
want you on our team! For more information about the work we do,
