- Develop AI-driven control mechanisms that allow UAVs to self-improve through simulated and real-world interactions
- Optimize multi-agent systems for decentralized, self-organizing swarm intelligence
- Integrate sensor fusion data (Radar, RF, EO/IR, Lidar, Acoustic) into evolving AI-driven navigation models
- Conduct HIL (Hardware-in-the-Loop) and SIL (Software-in-the-Loop) testing to validate UAV self-learning behavior
- Ensure compliance with defense and AI safety standards (MIL-STD, ITAR, NATO STANAGs, AI in Warfare Ethics)
Your profile
- 5+ years experience in neuroevolution, reinforcement learning, or adaptive AI for robotics
- Expertise in genetic algorithms (GA), neuroevolution (NEAT, HyperNEAT), and self-learning AI models
- Proficiency in Python, C++, TensorFlow/PyTorch, or JAX for AI-driven UAV intelligence
- Strong knowledge of multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL), evolutionary robotics, and self-improving AI
- Familiarity with ROS2, Gazebo, AirSim, and swarm communication protocols (DDS, ZeroMQ, MQTT)
- Experience in military UAV swarm applications and autonomous countermeasure systems
- Background in neuromorphic computing, bio-inspired AI, and AI-driven emergent behavior
- Knowledge of quantum-enhanced AI for evolutionary learning in UAV networks
