PRIMARY OBJECTIVE OF POSITION: Support unmanned systems Research, Development, Test and Evaluation (RDT&E) that addresses Civil Engineer Operations, Rapid Airfield Damage Repair (RADR), Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD), logistics and mission support. This effort will develop new technologies in fully and semi-autonomous operations, sensor/payload integration, multi-vehicle interaction, and robotic applications that support CE and mission support operations for both fixed and deployed installations. New technologies should integrate advancements in artificial intelligence and machine learning where feasible, as well as implement cybersecurity measures when required.

MAJOR DUTIES & RESPONSIBILITIES:

+ Develop technologies for networked unmanned systems that can enhance and advance current Air Force Logistics and Mission Support (L&MS) operations in terms of speed, safety, economy, and performance

+ While Security Patrol Robots have been researched by AFCEC in the past, other areas represent potentially new opportunities to employ robotic and autonomous technologies for operations that are hazardous, difficult, repetitive, and/or otherwise lend themselves to robotic execution due to high risks or money/resource savings

+ Autonomous and/or semi-autonomous operations, along with multi-vehicle operations, represent opportunities for technological development

+ Potential application areas include Materiel Handling and Aerial Port Operations, Supply Logistics, and Refuse Collection

MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS

+ Associate’s degree in Computer Science, Electronics Engineering, or equivalent

+ At least 5 years of RDT&E experience

+ Specific experience related to Civil Engineer Robotic and Autonomous Systems Technologies (CERAST), equipment maintenance and heavy equipment operations are required
