Apply NowJob Description
General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI), an affiliate of General Atomics, is a world leader in proven, reliable remotely piloted aircraft and tactical reconnaissance radars, as well as advanced high-resolution surveillance systems.The Perception Infrastructure Engineer designs, builds, and maintains the compute, data, and CI/CD infrastructure that enables the development, test, and deployment of advanced perception algorithms for multi-sensor systems.This role bridges DevOps, software engineering, and systems integration to ensure scalable, reproducible environments for radar, EO/IR, and fused-sensor perception workloads executed on GPU-based platforms across simulation, lab, and flight environments.DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES: Architect, deploy, and maintain on-prem and isolated network compute infrastructure supporting perception algorithm development and test (GPU servers, storage arrays, and networked development hosts). Design and manage GitLab CI/CD pipelines for build, test, and container deployment of perception software baselines (C++, CUDA, Python, ROS2). Support algorithm developers with containerized and reproducible environments for ML training, sensor simulation, and embedded inference (Docker, Podman, Singularity). Implement and maintain infrastructure-as-code for provisioning and configuration management (Ansible, Terraform, or equivalent). Manage integration of data management tools (DVC, MLflow, Git LFS) for large datasets, model artifacts, and version tracking. Ensure secure network configuration and compliance with NIST SP 800-171 and corporate cybersecurity controls. Optimize GPU cluster scheduling and resource utilization (e.g., Slurm, Kubernetes, or GitLab runners for H100-class nodes). Collaborate closely with perception algorithm engineers, autonomy software leads, and IT security to deliver reliable, high-throughput development pipelines. Support integration and test of perception software in hardware-in-the-loop and flight test environmentsWe recognize and appreciate the value and contributions of individuals with diverse backgrounds and experiences and welcome all qualified individuals to apply.,
