Exp needed for Rank 8: 793,500
For all four armors, exp needed is 3,174,000.
The maximum score/exp you can gain from playing a level is 65,500. I've confirmed this on a few levels on both Hard and Inferno difficulties. Predalien90 in the comments confirms Normal has the same cap. 65K is attainable with patience along with any spawn nests, hills, or drop ships.
If grinding to max score from the start of a class, you would need to play ~12.1 levels, or 48 (plus a bit) total sessions for all armors.
Score/exp on Normal, Hard and Inferno for regular spawning enemies. (If score/exp on Normal is X, Hard is X*3, and Inferno is X*9.)
Ticks: 1, 3, 9
Ants: 5, 15, 45
Spiders: 6, 18, 54
Gunships: 6, 18, 54
Metal Ants: 7, 21, 63
Metal Spiders: 8, 24, 72
Some good grinding spots.
The Cube: Level 2-5. Towards the end, before you fight the four elite "bosses", there is a crater with two broken silos. Here, 3 Metal Ant hills spew out ~15 ants per go. If bored of ants, after you seal off these three, a Metal Spider nest appears, and spawns 16 spiders.
Invasion Alert: Level 1-1. There are two separate ant hills. The first spawns 6 at a time, the second spawns 12.

Alternately, if you "speed run" Level 1-1 on Inferno with a higher ranking character and good weapons, you can earn 20K-25K in a short amount of time.

great solution.
i might want to add, that if you want to power-level a new character, dont bother with reaching more than rank 2, so play 1-1 once in normal. this should give you 2k and you need 1500 to reach rank 2.
then, you could attempt hard 1-1 two or three times. that should bring you to rank 4. now, you can technically start grinding 1-1 on inferno, given you have good weaponry.
on the flimsy jet armour i found armachd fearthainn (which is a rank 4 found weapon, so good luck on another armour) to be extremely efficient as rank 4 on 1-1 inferno. also good for farming the second ant-hill.
tactical should take the MG turret and mines. you can endless farm the second anthill with one turret and three mines set before it, to speed the process up. that way, i upped the outcome for 1-1 on hard from 5-6k to 12k before i got bored and went on to level up.
i leveled trooper 'normally' through stage progress and didn't play battle yet, so i just powerleveled those two to 5 resp. 4 in just a few hours that way.

Level 1-1 on Inferno with no bots is the best grinding spot. I could get 22-25000 points a time with a high rank character.
