Engineering role focused on tactical networking for defense robotic systems at .

The Air Defense team builds robots that find other robots and knock them out of the sky. At a time when air superiority can no longer be taken for granted, the Air Defense Team provides mission critical capabilities to warfighters. From detection to tracking, identification, deterrence, and defeat, our family of networked sensors and effectors enables our customers to rapidly close the kill chain against a broad range of Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) threats. Working across product, engineering, sales, logistics, operations, and mission success, the Air Defense team develops, tests, deploys, and sustains the Air Defense Family of Systems (FoS) in challenging operational environments worldwide.

We are hiring a Tactical Networking Engineer to lead the design and implementation of a networking stack to enable command and control (C2) and collaborative autonomy of distributed unmanned systems. You will:
Design, implement, deploy, and troubleshoot networking solutions focused on Layer-1 (Physical), Layer-2 (Data), Layer-3 (Network), and Layer-4 (Transport) of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) reference model
Perform trade-off studies of different comms and networking solutions including government provided technologies
Design network laydowns and configurations decomposed from complex design reference missions (DRMs) involving large scale unmanned systems and forward-deployed C2 systems.
Build robust tooling for benchmarking and analyzing network traffic
Analyze test network infrastructure, develop recommendations, and implement improvements for network reliability and throughput for edge network
Collaborate extensively with software engineers to build a representative modeling and simulation environment including hardware-in-the-loop lab infrastructure
