Job DescriptionAre you bored with the standard product development pipeline?Do you enjoy tinkering and learning how things work? Would you want to work a hybrid schedule?HII Mission Technologies (HII MT) is seeking talented engineers who are excited to work in a flipped engineering environment. Our team specializes in reverse engineering and microelectronics trust and assurance. Candidates for this position will lead a team performing reverse engineering tasks on existing products and encoding discoveries directly into our codebase. Additional tasks involve the research, design, and development of innovative algorithms to automate challenging or time-consuming tasks within the reverse engineering domain. Candidates will be exposed to and become proficient with a variety of technologies involving hardware description languages, embedded instruction architectures, high-level software development languages, formal verification tools, and more.The ideal candidate will have experience with object-oriented design and an understanding of basic logic gates. We are particularly looking for candidates that have experience with FPGA design (Quartus, Vivado, ISE), embedded system design, EDA tools (synthesis, P&R, simulation), and/or microcontrollers. Experience with software reverse engineering is also valued in this position.Essential Job ResponsibilitiesCandidates for this position will be responsible for leading reverse engineering efforts into systems of interest and mentoring junior engineers in the reverse engineering and development processes. Candidates will be expected to communicate clearly and effectively and demonstrate the ability to architect maintainable solutions to complex problems. Effective collaboration with teammates on the development of new ideas and accepting constructive feedback through the code review process is required. Candidates may also be expected to implement algorithms created by hardware engineers or from academic sources with limited documentation. Candidates must be U.S. citizens and be willing and able to obtain a DoD security clearance (if not already cleared).Minimum QualificationsYou will meet our minimum qualifications if you • Are a United States citizen with the ability to obtain and maintain a DoD security clearance • Have a bachelor's degree with 15+ years of experience in a relevant engineering discipline • Or have a master's degree with 13+ years of experience in a relevant engineering discipline • Or have a Ph.D. with 10+ years of experience in a relevant engineering discipline • Have extensive experience with object-oriented programming languages (C, Java, Python) • Have exposure to basic logic gates and Boolean math (AND, OR) • Have the ability to learn new skills quicklyPreferred RequirementsYou will go above and beyond if you • Already possess an active security clearance • Have experience with modern C standards (>= C17) and STL • Have experience with Python • Can demonstrate the use of design patterns • Have developed using software development processes (Agile, TDD, etc.) • Familiarity with Verilog or VHDL • Have experience with FPGA design software (Quartus, ISE, Vivado, etc.) • Have experience with software reverse engineering (IDA Pro, Ghidra, etc.) • Are proficient with source control systems (git, svn, perforce, etc.) • Have experience with the code review process • Have experience with binary patching • Have experience bypassing encryption schemes (power glitching, side-channel attacks, etc.) • Have published research regarding cybersecurity, software exploitation, or reverse engineeringThis opportunity resides with Cyber & Electronic Warfare, a business group within HII's Mission Technologies division.
