Software Engineer Intern
Belong. Connect. Grow. with KBR!
Around here, we define the future. We are a company of innovators, thinkers, creators, explorers, volunteers, and dreamers. But we all share one goal: to improve the world responsibly and safely by supporting the science that informs decision makers and protects Earth.
KBR is seeking an Intern to join its talented team in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. KBR, headquartered in Houston, Texas, is the primary contractor to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) for performing work at the Earth Resources Observation and Science (EROS) Center (http://eros.usgs.gov/) near Sioux Falls, SD (http://www.siouxfalls.org).
The Intern will be supporting the Landsat Calibration and Validation (Cal/Val) team and applying artificial intelligence and/or deep learning models to time series trended calibration data and providing automated anomaly detection. KBR plans to leverage CVAE (Convolutional Variational Auto-Encoder) and similar modelling methodologies in AWS to take an unsupervised deep learning approach to anomaly detection in current and future Landsat mission data. The overall goal for our project, “Scaling Operations for Multi Mission Architecture”, is to investigate Calibration and Validation (Cal/Val) data from the Landsat series of satellites to ensure data quality meets the gold standard in Earth observations. This includes maintaining a well-calibrated remote sensing archive of current, past, and future Landsat missions for science applications and Earth observation enhancement, as well as for Cal/Val operational trending dashboard capabilities. The intern will also support additional machine learning support for geometric calibration activities, specifically applying machine learning methods to ground control points (GCPs) resolution consistency across multiple satellite resolutions.
MUST have three years of continuous residency in the U.S. for issuance of a Government Security credential
Core Responsibilities
