Description

  • Architect and evolve resilient, multi-classification network topologies for autonomous air platforms operating in contested and degraded RF environments.
  • Design and validate end-to-end unicast and multicast data flows from onboard compute through tactical datalinks to ground-based C2 nodes.
  • Own the selection, integration, and lab-to-flight qualification of networking hardware and software, including tactical radios, routers, and encryption devices.
  • Build and maintain network simulation and emulation environments to model mission scenarios, characterize link budgets, and stress-test failover behavior.
  • Develop automated test scripts and traffic-generation harnesses in Python and Bash to validate QoS, multicast routing, and unicast routing under load.
  • Collaborate with RF, avionics, and software engineers to integrate networking stacks onto vehicle platforms and troubleshoot issues across layers 1-7.
  • Translate mission requirements into network engineering specifications and provide clear documentation for internal teams and program stakeholders.
  • Manage subcontractor and/or internal technical development efforts related to networking integration and validation.

Requirements

  • 7+ years of experience as a network engineer.
  • Expert-level understanding of unicast and multicast data flows.

  • Advanced troubleshooting ability across layers 1-7.
  • Advanced knowledge of systems engineering processes, including test case development, requirements enumeration, and unit vs. system-level testing.
  • Ability to decompose mission-level and system-level requirements into network engineering specifications and maintain traceability.
  • Proficiency in test script development using Python, Bash, or Ruby.
  • Must hold a U.S. Secret security clearance and be able to obtain and hold a U.S. Top Secret security clearance.
  • Ability to travel up to 30% as needed.
  • Experience with cross-domain solutions, multi-level security network architectures, or NSA-evaluated network devices such as HAIPE inline encryptors or Type 1 cryptographic equipment (preferred).
  • Experience with MANETs, DTN, or dynamic routing in high-mobility, topology-variable environments (preferred).
  • Experience with network modeling and simulation tools such as EMANE, ns-3, CORE, or equivalent (preferred).
  • Experience managing vendor or subcontractor technical deliverables, including COTS/GOTS evaluation and integration milestone tracking (preferred).
  • Familiarity with COMSEC procedures, KMI/SKL, and handling cryptographic material (preferred).
  • Familiarity with tactical radios and waveforms used in DoD operational environments (preferred).
  • Familiarity with end-to-end RF integration including Unmanned Aerial Systems (preferred).
  • Hands-on experience with network design, test, and operation of communications systems over various RF apertures (preferred).

Benefits

  • Competitive base salary range of $166,000 to $220,000 USD.
  • Highly competitive equity grants included in the majority of full-time offers.
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage at little to no cost for US roles.
