Software Engineer Research

Overview Exciting opportunity to work on significantly advancing the state-of-the-art in cybersecurity tools! Our effort is addressing an outstanding software security hole, through novel applications of machine learning.  Location : GrammaTech has offices in Ithaca, NY, Bethesda, MD, and Madison, WI — but will consider remote employees when there is a strong match of skills and remote work experience,outside the recent pandemic. (Remote employees MUST be located in the United States.) Responsibilities Under guidance of a principal investigator (PI), a software engineer on a research project will implement innovative prototypes to explore new approaches to problems in software security. A research-oriented software engineer is expected to: * Study and implement approaches drawn from academic literature or in-house design. * Evaluate the resulting prototype implementation to test its value in addressing the research goals. * Report results to the PI and respond by adapting the prototype to better address research goals. * Contribute to presentations and written reports that keep research sponsors up to date on project progress. * Prepare prototypes for demonstrations and evaluations by research sponsors. Qualifications Required * BS in Computer Science or equivalent.  * Three (3) years or more of industry experience. * Significant experience with applying machine learning techniques such as artificial neural networks, support vector machines, and cluster analysis to different problem domains. * Experience with implementing robust software using open source machine learning frameworks such as keras, scikit-learn, gensim. Such experience is expected to be in projects that are beyond standard coursework. * Ability to read advanced machine learning publications, and to judge and implement the key ideas. * Advanced software application development skills in Python and C++.  * Thorough understanding of data structures and algorithms. Preferred * MS or PhD in Computer Science.  * Experience with machine code (x86, x64, ARM). * Knowledge of the cybersecurity domain. * Knowledge of containerization, orchestration, and deployment (docker, Kubernetes, AWS). GrammaTech, Inc. is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action employer.  Members of underrepresented groups are encouraged to apply
