Desired Qualifications:

  • An Active TS/ SCI with Poly is preferred.
  • Experience in Embedded systems and/or Embedded software development (e.g. x86, x64, or RISC, ARM, and microcontrollers)
  • Experience with software reverse engineering tools (e.g. Autopsy, IDA Pro, Ghidra)
  • Experience with virtualization and emulation tools (e.g. VMware, VirtualBox, QEMU)
  • Experience with distributed systems architecture and computer networking
  • Experience in programming associated with Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs)
  • Experience with Digital Signal Processing (DSP) design or modeling and analysis of Software Defined Radios (SDRs)
