Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
The role involves developing weather radar algorithms and analyzing hazardous aviation weather such as windshear and icing. The candidate will contribute to NOAA, FAA, and DoW programs by applying AI-based algorithms to large-scale datasets using supercomputing resources.
Requires an M.S. in Meteorology or a B.S. with 5+ years of experience, along with proficiency in Python and Linux. Candidates must have a strong foundation in radar concepts, experience with large datasets, and the ability to obtain a Secret level DoD security clearance.
The Air Traffic Control & Weather Systems Group at MIT Lincoln Laboratory has a long history of developing innovative and impactful technologies that enable safe, efficient, and secure transportation. We work in a wide range of mission areas, including weather sensing and forecasting, air traffic control decision support and aviation cyber security. Our group brings together experts across multiple disciplines – systems analysis, meteorology, mathematics, computer science, aerospace engineering, human factors, flight operations, and others – to address the nation’s transportation problems. We develop advanced prototype systems and work closely with the US government, users, industry and academia to integrate and transfer them into real-world operations. Our technologies have been recognized nationally through numerous R&D100 awards, and we are proud to serve the country through our research. We offer a collegial work environment, value teamwork and diversity, and allow for flexible work arrangements.
We are seeking a meteorologist with a background in weather radar analysis and algorithm development who can contribute to a variety of research initiatives and national infrastructure needs. Expertise in radar meteorology is central to this role, with a particular focus on wind-based hazardous weather for aviation such as microbursts and windshear, as well as icing, en-route convection, and turbulence. Additionally, experience analyzing and understanding the broader-scale dynamics of severe convective storms, especially tornadoes, is important for this position. Candidates should have the ability to think broadly about how weather radar systems and networks contribute to operational missions and have the interest to work on the development of both real-time, operational systems, as well as more research-based trade studies and analysis. Key project opportunities involve working on NOAA, FAA, and DoW programs that include application of large-scale data to AI-based weather radar algorithms with supercomputing resources, analysis of performance metrics of algorithms under development, analysis and design of radar specifications, development of novel aviation and non-aviation algorithms for hazardous weather, monitoring of operational algorithms and troubleshooting false alarms/missed detections, and other projects as needed. Our weather radar team often provides both high-level and technical trade studies, reports, presentations, and publications (conferences, journals, etc.) for government sponsors, and we take great pride in serving as independent subject matter experts for the U.S. government.
