Description
If you are graduating with a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Cybersecurity, Space Systems Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, or a related field, and want to contribute to cyber solutions that defend US constrained military and space systems, we'd love to have you join our team!
We are seeking computer scientists, engineers, and mathematicians to help us build novel solutions for numerous US Government sponsor agencies and departments. Together, we solve complex technical challenges at the intersection of software, hardware, and cyber operations. Our team works collaboratively with industry, academia, and government to study, design, develop, implement, and test cyber capabilities applied to air, space, afloat, ground, and undersea platforms and systems. We value creativity, collaboration, and the open exchange of ideas, and we believe in learning, experimenting, and professional growth.
As a member of our team...- Your primary responsibility will be to work on state-of-the art areas of research and development such as, but not limited to:
- Advanced Cryptography: Research, develop, and operationalize novel encryption methodologies.
- RF-Enabled Cyber: Apply radio frequency (RF) and cyber concepts for capability development, integration, test, and evaluation.
- Embedded Solutions: Apply hardware design and engineering for constrained system cyber use cases.
- Offensive Security: Analyze potential cyber vulnerabilities in systems and understand their mission impact
- Space Cybersecurity: Research and grow space system cybersecurity methods and capabilities for system resilience and cyber advantage.
- You will research capability gaps in current platforms and build solutions as part of a team with a variety of STEM-related backgrounds (systems engineering, software, hardware, physics, mathematics).
- You will work alongside extraordinary cyber and engineering professionals to solve challenges vital to national security.
- You'll gain experience giving technical briefings and presentations.
- You will have access to internal funding opportunities to craft the direction of future research.
Qualifications
You meet our minimum qualifications for the job if you...- Are pursuing a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Cybersecurity, Space Systems Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, or a related field a related field.
- Have experience with at least one of the following: Python, Rust, VHDL, Verilog, C, C++, Java, MATLAB, or another popular programming language.
- Have an educational background or demonstrated interest in at least one of the following categories:
