About this position
The George Washington University, in partnership with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) through the Professional Research Experience Program (PREP), is seeking a Research Associate to join the Public Safety Communications Research (PSCR) Division in Gaithersburg, MD. This opportunity is ideal for Master’s graduates in Robotics, Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, or Data Science who are passionate about applying their coding and simulation skills to real-world, life-saving technology for first responders.
The successful candidate will work on evaluating and developing communications protocols for Uncrewed Aircraft Systems (UAS), focusing on creating simulators and datasets to ensure reliable mesh networking and long-range communications for drones during emergency response missions. Key responsibilities include developing software for drone communications simulator platforms, integrating radio hardware with virtual simulation environments, developing open-source code, curating public safety datasets, evaluating AI/ML models for drone flight and signal optimization, and comparing simulation data with live UAS flight tests in collaboration with public safety working groups.
Applicants must hold a Master’s degree in a relevant field and demonstrate proficiency in Python, C/C++, and tools such as PX4, ArduPilot, or MAVLink. Experience with network routing, radio signaling, and modern machine learning tools (AWS, MLFlow, BigQuery) is required, as is familiarity with simulation applications like AirSim. The position is based at the NIST campus in Gaithersburg, MD, and requires eligibility for a Department of Commerce background check.
This is a high-impact, paid research role where your contributions will directly support the development of methodologies used by first responders nationwide. The position is funded through the NIST PREP program, though specific salary or stipend details are not provided. Interested candidates should apply via the provided application link and ensure they meet all eligibility and technical requirements.
