  • Required Qualifications

  • Must be a U.S. citizen with an active DoD Secret Clearance and the ability to obtain a Top Secret / SCI Clearance upon hire. Candidates with an existing TS / SCI clearance are strongly preferred.

  • Deep technical background in communication systems, RF, and SDR frameworks such as GNURadio, REDHAWK, or similar.
  • Experience in simulation of radio equipment
  • Strong understanding of digital signal processing, error correction, adaptive tuning, and optimization for communication systems.
  • Hands-on experience working in Agile / DevOps environments with tools such as Git and Jira.
  • Work Environment

  • Hybrid role with on-site work required in Huntsville, AL
  • Flexible 9 / 80 work schedule (every other Friday off).
  • Collaborative, fast-paced, and technically innovative environment with remote team integration.
  • Compensation & Benefits

  • Competitive salary (based on experience and market conditions).
  • Company equity and relocation assistance.
  • Paid time off & flexible work schedules.
  • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance.
  • Life and disability insurance (short & long-term).
