Project Details

RTI International is seeking self-motivated and outgoing individuals to work on an important and long-standing government-sponsored study, the National Survey of Family Growth (NSFG), as Part-Time Field Interviewers.

The National Survey of Family Growth (NSFG), conducted by the federal government since 1973, is a national survey of women and men, 15-49 years of age, designed to provide national estimates of factors affecting pregnancy and birth rates, and general reproductive health. The topics covered in the NSFG are sensitive but extremely important for understanding women’s and men’s health and well-being in the United States.

The NSFG interview covers sexual activity, contraceptive use, pregnancy history (including pregnancy loss), infertility, relationship experience, (including marriages and cohabitation), use of medical services (including family planning, infertility services, and preventative health care), and experience with adoption and foster care. For more information on the NSFG research project and requirements, please see: Interviewers will make face-to-face visits to selected households to screen for eligible respondents and conduct in-person NSFG interviews.

The Position:

Etegent is seeking Machine Learning Engineers (MLEs) to work with our Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) group based in the Beavercreek office. MLEs will work in a team environment with Etegent teammates, customers, and other researchers from leading academic institutions, government organizations and commercial entities.

We deliver solutions in the domains of AI/ML, data science, software, and visualization to address geospatial intelligence (GEOINT) challenges for Department of Defense and Intelligence Community (DoD/IC) customers. We develop data science tools to analyze large, diverse datasets from a variety of sensor types (SAR, ISAR, GMTI, HIS, EO, IR). We design and implement algorithms to perform pattern recognition, such as statistical and deep learning techniques, to identify meaningful trends and patterns.

• Serve as a primary technical interface for our customers. This involves translating complex algorithmic concepts into clear, value-driven updates and navigating stakeholder feedback with transparency.
• Architect and oversee the implementation of signature exploitation algorithms. You'll determine the best path towards addressing the customer need – whether by traditional feature extraction or modern deep learning approaches.
• Support business development and growth. This includes partnering with leadership on the bidding process, drafting white papers, and presenting technical solutions to prospective clients.
• Elevate the team through active mentorship. You will provide high-level project oversight and lead constructive research reviews to improve the group's collective output.
• Own the documentation and reporting process. You'll ensure that project updates, proposals, and final reports present a cohesive, professional narrative.
• Build for scale. You'll drive the development of data science tools to handle the ingestion and analysis of diverse, large-scale datasets.
• Standardize quality and rigor. You will reinforce best practices for data analytics and performance evaluation to ensure our results are repeatable across different applications.
• Promote a culture of humility. Encourage an \"ego-less\" engineering environment where diverse perspectives are valued and feedback is focused on the best technical outcome.

Required Qualifications:

• Bachelor's Degree in the fields of Computer Science, Engineering, Physics, Applied Math, or Statistics.
• 4-5 years of previous signal processing, computer vision, and/or machine learning experience.
• Previous experience leading project teams for government contracts.

• Experience developing software tools capable of deriving value from large, diverse datasets.

• Independent and innovative thinker with an ability to work in an autonomous environment.
• Demonstrates curiosity with a focus on innovating solutions for tasks.
