Job Description
What We Do
Integer Technologies is an applied research and product development company founded by scientists and engineers with a passion for technology and national security. We perform R&D on next-generation systems and technologies for the Department of War and other U.S. Government agencies. We are hardware and software developers with experience turning research into impactful products for military and commercial applications. Our core portfolio of research includes projects in power & energy systems, unmanned systems (with an emphasis on maritime systems), digital engineering, and advanced manufacturing. We are a startup founded for the purpose of putting research into action. Our mission is to create a safer world by translating scientific discoveries into reliable products that address urgent national security needs… at the speed of relevance.
About the Role
Integer Technologies is forming a specialized team to conduct advanced science and technology research focused on the operationalization of passive acoustic soundscape data for Undersea Warfare (USW) and Seabed and Subsea Warfare (SSW). We are hiring a Software Engineer with deep experience in UUV systems, autonomy, or maritime robotics. This role focuses on developing mission critical software for uncrewed underwater platforms, including autonomy behaviors, perception pipelines, communication interfaces, and digital twin integration.
Integer’s operating model is built on transforming science and technology research into deployable capabilities for the Department of War. Much of our work involves developing solutions for complex problems that currently have no known answers. As a result, candidates must be able to conduct original research, rapidly learn new concepts from a range of engineering disciplines, and document findings in a clear, accessible manner for both technical and nontechnical audiences in collaboration with the program’s Principal Investigator.
Primary Responsibilities
- Design and implement software for UUV autonomy, navigation, perception, and mission execution.
- Develop simulation tools and digital twins that support testing, validation, and operator training.
- Integrate sensor data (acoustic, inertial, environmental) into real time decision making frameworks.
- Work closely with mechanical, electrical, and systems engineers to ensure seamless system level performance.
- Support field testing, data collection, and iterative improvement of UUV behaviors.
- Contribute to technical leadership, architecture decisions, and long term product strategy.
- Travel as required to execute research and product development. Travel is estimated to average less than 10%.
- Other duties as assigned, potentially supporting the Company as needed to develop new funded research and engineering projects.
