Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
Lead technical systems engineering to design and build prototypes addressing national security challenges. Provide hands-on support to startup companies to adapt commercial technology for government operational use.
Requires a Bachelor's degree in Engineering or Computer Science and at least 5 years of professional experience in systems engineering. U.S. Citizenship is mandatory with the ability to obtain a TS/SCI clearance.
As an Engineer at IQT, you will join a multidisciplinary team of builders addressing national security problems. This role balances two key areas: designing and building prototypes that demonstrate new approaches to mission-critical challenges, and providing hands-on systems engineering support to IQT’s portfolio of startup companies as they adapt their commercial technology for government use.
We take a hands-on, rapid-prototyping approach to our work. We leverage commercial technology, open-source software and hardware to build prototypes that solve real operational problems and validate new technical approaches. Our prototypes are tested in the field alongside end users, with the technology ultimately moving to field use when appropriate.
You will also provide systems engineering support to startup companies as they mature their technology for government use. This work includes helping define system architectures, identifying integration challenges, conducting technical assessments, and advising on paths to operational readiness. We build deep relationships with our government partners and act as trusted advisors as they navigate the technology landscape.
Collaboration is non-negotiable. You will work on small, cross-functional teams and be expected to move fast. This requires engineers who are comfortable learning new technical areas quickly, applying proven technology to new areas, and working across both hardware and software. This role includes work in all phases of a project life cycle, including concept development, design, prototyping, integration, testing, evaluation, and customer engagement.

IQT identifies, evaluates, and leverages emerging commercial technologies to deliver best-in-class capabilities, insights, and other services to government partners through a unique global investment platform.
