We are pleased to announce the opening for a Senior Research Scientist / Engineer who will join our Research and Development team in Huntsville, Alabama and become part of our rapidly growing technology company operating in missile defense, cybersecurity, test range modernization, biotechnology, and space control marketspaces. You will be part of a team known for deploying new products for military and commercial use.

Responsibilities

You'll be supporting and leading projects that develop and exploit new technologies, executing multiple proof-of-concept type projects in quick succession. You will be expected to participate in securing funding through proposals to the Government and private funding sources. As part of this process, you will become intimately familiar with (a) multiple technology areas, (b) intellectual property and how to protect it, and (c) the process by which technologies are evaluated for their potential to generate products.

Basic Qualifications

You must have a bachelor's degree at minimum, in a scientific or engineering field such as Physics, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering, Mathematics, Aerospace Engineering, or similar. Also, we're looking for someone with seven years of full-time professional experience in an engineering role. Finally, you must possess or have the ability to obtain an active Secret Security Clearance. Lacking any one of these disqualifies you from this job.

  • A high degree of technical competence in one or more of the following areas :

  • Software development (backend; one or more of Python / C++ / C)
  • Machine learning (or a combination of mathematics and computer programming)
  • Mechanical engineering
  • Materials Science
  • Outstanding demonstrated technical competence and ingenuity in one of the five areas identified above (EE, software dev, ML, MechE, or Mat Sci) [Must be able to quickly understand, apply, and adapt challenging technical concepts without a walkthrough]
  • Exceptional aptitude for building tangible products [Must be able to demonstrate this by a portfolio of work in some capacity]
  • Strong intellectual curiosity [You will be asked to leave your comfort zone early and often, so we're looking for evidence that you've done this on your own before]
  • Preference for self-directed work [You'll work with our top technical talent, but we're looking for evidence that when given a problem to solve, you know how to identify and execute the means for solving it.]
  • Demonstrated history of effective collaboration [You'll be working with multiple other people as part of a variety of integrated teams and must be capable of both shouldering work yourself and leading projects with little guidance. This implies other things like good communication, planning and coordination, and 'soft' skills.]
  • Demonstrated history of successful business development / bid and proposal / commercialization efforts [You'll be in a position to lead new efforts that originate from our proof-of-concept type work, and should be semi-comfortable and fully excited about doing so]
