About the role

MIT Lincoln Laboratory seeks a digital signal processing engineer to join the Electronics for Contested Space group. You will model, analyze, prototype, and demonstrate concepts with real-world experiments across space and terrestrial domains, developing secure, scalable software in a multidisciplinary team. Ownership of ideas, mentoring of junior staff, and interaction with sponsors are key aspects; occasional travel may be required to support field exercises and events.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
