We pursue innovative, high-impact, practical research in small, focused teams. We succeed by being involved in all R&D phases, including problem analysis and innovative solution design, system architecture, rapid prototyping and field-testing, and ultimately transfer of our technology to DoD, Intelligence Community, and other government sponsors, as well as to industry. Being part of MIT, we also collaborate closely with academia and publish our research in top-tier venues.
If you would like to work on things that truly matter at a place that combines problems of pressing national importance with MIT’s culture of academic excellence, abundance of resources, and superior work-life balance, apply here to learn more.
Position Description
You will help us create advanced technologies for ensuring security and resiliency of next-generation mission-critical systems relevant to National Security. Examples of such systems include both cyber-physical systems (e.g., drones, satellites, and industrial control systems) and pure cyber systems (e.g., cloud computing and privacy-preserving information sharing). You will study, develop, and prototype new technologies in secure computing, storage, and communication areas, and ultimately the transfer of such technologies to real-world use cases.

- Software design & development in C/C++; familiarity with the software development lifecycle, including design, documentation, and testing.
- Analysis, modeling, design, development, testing, and verification of embedded systems (C, VHDL, etc.).
- Analysis, architecture, design, implementation, and measurement of secure sub-systems and systems.
- Academic or professional research experience and/or publications in the areas of computer security.
- The passion to convert vision into reality, excellent work ethic, and effective communication skills are essential.
Desired Knowledge
Includes one or more of the following:
- System engineering. Computer and software security. Familiarity with or interest in secure programming. Rust programing language.
- Operating system internals, OS-level middleware, distributed systems, and network protocols. Data-structures, state-machines, and algorithms.
- Embedded and hardware systems security (FPGAs) and Real-time systems security
- Moving target defense techniques: Dynamic Runtime Environment, Networks, Platforms, Software, and Data
- Applied cryptography and advanced cryptographic protocols
