Integer’s mission is to turn applied science and technology (S&T) research topics into tangible technology for the Department of Defense (DoD). Integer is currently hiring a Director of Cyber-Physical Systems responsible for the strategy, management, and capture of a portfolio of DoD S&T research programs related to critical technologies for cyber-secure
solutions in undersea, surface, and information warfare
.

To achieve internal and customer project goals, the Director of Cyber-Physical Systems must coordinate multiple research programs, understand new concepts from multiple engineering disciplines on advanced and complex topics, and communicate findings in a way that is easy for non-experts to understand. They must lead principal investigators (PI’s) and technical project managers (TPM’s) towards a clear vision for their teams, ensuring projects are executed to a high standard of excellence and continuously hitting demonstrable capability milestones.

The Director of Cyber-Physical Systems must lead the capture of follow‑on work in related technical areas. They are well respected in the research community. They are experienced in getting to know DoD research sponsors and then forming new research ideas in alignment with the sponsor’s priorities. Critically, Director of Cyber-Physical Systems must have a bias for research that explores capabilities relevant to the DoD mission set and lays the foundation for technology that may be transitioned into hands of the US warfighter.
