Original job description

Description

Are you looking to work with interdisciplinary teams to solve complex national security challenges through creative problem-solving and applied design?

Are you a lifelong learner who enjoys exploring complex problems, developing innovative ideas, and helping technical teams turn concepts into practical solutions?

If so, we're looking for someone like you to join our team at APL!

We are a multidisciplinary team of engineers, scientists, mathematicians, software developers, and technical specialists who advance electromagnetic and computer-system capabilities for critical national security missions, with a primary focus on maritime applications. Our work spans initial analysis and concept development through implementation, system integration, test, and transition. We combine technical expertise with applied design approaches to understand operational challenges and develop mission-focused solutions.

We value people who ask thoughtful questions, take initiative when the path forward is not obvious, test assumptions against evidence, seek out expertise when needed, and follow through to technically sound, useful results. The breadth of our work provides opportunities to build deep expertise, contribute across adjacent disciplines, and grow into technical, project, or product leadership.

As a member of our team, you will...

Work with multidisciplinary teams and sponsor stakeholders to understand operational needs, identify challenges, and develop practical approaches to addressing them.
Collaborate with engineers, software developers, and operational subject matter experts to develop and evaluate concepts that improve operator understanding, decision-making, and system usability.
Help develop and refine concepts, user interactions, and prototype capabilities for software, models, analysis tools, experiments, or technical systems appropriate to the problem.
Use stakeholder feedback, simulated, laboratory, and real-world data to evaluate potential solutions and guide continued development.
Contribute across multiple stages of the development lifecycle, from initial concept development through implementation, integration, test, and evaluation.
Communicate complex ideas, technical findings, and recommendations to sponsors and project teams through appropriate methods and deliverables.
Prioritize and manage multiple projects while ensuring the quality and timely delivery of technical products within established schedules and budgets, including work in classified environments.

Qualifications

You meet our minimum qualifications for the job if you have…

A bachelor's degree in: Human Factors Engineering, Human-Computer Interaction, Engineering, Computer Science, or a related discipline, or equivalent relevant experience.
At least 3 years of professional experience applying creative problem-solving skills to develop concepts or solutions that address stakeholder needs.
Demonstrated ability to translate complex information and stakeholder needs into actionable ideas and recommendations, supported by examples from previous work or projects which may include project descriptions or other relevant work samples.
Excellent organizational skills, attention to detail, and the ability to manage multiple priorities and project requirements.
Strong collaboration and communication skills, with the ability to work effectively across disciplines and interact with staff and stakeholders at all levels.
Experience using software tools to develop and communicate ideas, with the ability to work on Mac and Windows platforms and learn new tools as needed.
Unquestionable integrity and the ability to make sound decisions in a collaborative environment.
A willingness and ability to travel 20% and when not traveling, work with “fly-away” teams on support needs during workshops and design events, sponsor engagements, and technical events.
The ability to obtain an Interim Secret level security clearance by your start date and can ultimately obtain a Top Secret level clearance. If selected, you will be subject to a government security clearance investigation and must meet the requirements for access to classified information. Eligibility requirements include U.S. citizenship.

You'll go above and beyond our minimum requirements if you have..

5 or more years of relevant professional experience.
Experience applying Design Thinking, Human-Centered Design, systems thinking, or related approaches to explore stakeholder needs, evaluate alternatives, and develop effective solutions.
Familiarity with U.S. military programs, government sponsors, or complex technical and operational environments.
Experience with data visualization, UI/UX, interactive prototyping, or conceptual development.
An active Secret or higher level clearance.
