  • Serve as a technical expert for multiple companies throughout a development effort and government evaluation of the technology.
  • Monitor and react to any technical concerns or feedback throughout the work program, while translating critical technical risks/issues into an actionable plan as they arise.

  • Serve as a technologist for the organization; take creative ideas from concept to design to operation.

Qualifications

  • Ability to obtain and maintain a TS/SCI clearance. Candidates with active top-secret clearance preferred.
  • B.S. or M.S. degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent experience
