ECS is seeking a Maritime Technical SETA to work in our Arlington, VA office. Please Note: This position is contingent upon additional funding.
ECS seeks a Technical Science, Engineering, and Technical Advisory (SETA) candidate to provide onsite support to DARPA's Strategic Technology Office (STO). STO's mission is to develop technology to give national security leaders trusted, disruptive capabilities to win in all physical domains. STO seeks to carry out DARPA's mission of creating high-risk, high reward "breakthrough" technologies with a focus on ambitious, difficult, and revolutionary projects that achieve significant changes or fundamental shifts in technical capabilities and give our warfighters new ways to fight.
In this role, the SETA will work 50% effort on the Willow program. Willow seeks to develop innovative payloads to conduct Acoustic Warfare to counter active surface sonars. Payloads will be deployed on "nodes" (e.g., UUVs, buoys, moored systems, etc.) commensurate with proposed operational concepts. This position is to be the lead technical SETA on the program, coordinating performer and government team efforts as the program concludes Phase 1 testing and proceeds into Phase 2. This role will require travel up to 25% of the time.
