Our pioneering and inventive spirit has enabled us to be at the forefront of many technological advancements in our nation's history - from the first flight across the Atlantic Ocean, to stealth bombers, to landing on the moon.

Our culture thrives on intellectual curiosity, cognitive diversity and bringing your whole self to work - and we have an insatiable drive to do what others think is impossible. Our employees are not only part of history, they're making history.

Additionally, you will develop and deliver training materials for all new users, provide onboarding assistance, and gather feedback for continuous improvement, applying your in-depth understanding of nuclear weapon targeting, system design, and strategic employment to ensure the software fulfills mission intent and adheres to security constraints.
