## About the role

We are building an expeditionary force: a small group of engineers who want to do big, new, hard things and who move into unfamiliar territory as a matter of course. As Deputy Chief Engineer in Discovery, you lead the technical work on concepts nobody has proven, usually several at once. You learn whatever domain each one lives in and build the thing that tests it: the prototype, the test article, the demonstration. Analysis gets a concept to the point where it is worth building; building it is how we find out. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- Currently possesses and is able to maintain an active U.S. Top Secret security clearance
- Demonstrated experience working in more than one technical area
- You have done things: designed, built, tested, or fielded something real, in any field
- Proficiency in at least one physics-math scripting environment (Python with numpy/scipy, MATLAB/Simulink, Julia, or similar)
- Strong written, verbal, and visual communication
