Our nationally recognized staff work collaboratively to solve some of the nation’s most challenging problems.
With the laboratory’s support, we are able to make a meaningful impact while maintaining a healthy work-life balance. As part of the Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) and Tactical Systems Division of the Laboratory, we team on analysis, prototyping, and testing efforts with other groups. We also leverage tools and expertise from other Divisions when exploring new study areas. Our group cultivates a highly collaborative workplace, where staff work together on teams drawing on diverse experience levels. Typically, new staff will initially work with a more experienced staff member to get up to speed on analysis topics, then transition to more independent roles.
The group values work-life balance, with potential for flexible scheduling to provide a productive atmosphere for staff. Commitment to Diversity and Inclusion The group is committed to a diverse and inclusive workplace. We understand that a diverse workplace fosters a creative and productive atmosphere and we are dedicated to making sure that every staff member in the group is supported in their work and that every voice is heard. Growth Opportunities The group places a high value on opportunities for staff members to grow their skillset and contribute to the laboratory’s diverse set of efforts: Many staff members collaborate on projects with other groups across the laboratory The laboratory offers courses to all staff covering a wide range of topics, such as radar / infrared technical fundamentals to project management The laboratory also hosts many conferences with government and industry and the group encourages staff to travel to meetings and conferences across the country Benefits At MIT Lincoln Laboratory, our exceptional career opportunities include many outstanding benefits to help you stay healthy, feel supported, and enjoy a fulfilling work-life balance.
