About Armaments Research Company   

Armaments Research Company (ARC) is a technology company dedicated to bringing real-time situational awareness and battlefield logistics capabilities to the warfighter. You will be an integral part of the ARC team managing program execution in support of our innovative and powerful IoT devices to enhance national security.   

Our core offering is the ARC AI-Enabled Weapons Sensor (AEWS), which collects and transmits real-time tactical data to the cloud. This information enables battlefield/tactical awareness and aggregated insights into big data sets that do not exist today. ARC technologies were initially developed in partnership with DARPA and the National Science Foundation and leverage internet-of-things (IoT) technology and machine learning to derive actionable insights and transform operational responses. This novel technology will be deployed at scale to enhance safety, decision-making, and sustainment for the warfighter at the tactical edge. 

What You'll Do

  ARC delivers artificial intelligence to the individual weapon, turning weapon systems into networked sensors that enhance warfighter situational awareness, survivability, and sustainment in contested environments. Our full-stack product spans an embedded IoT sensing device hosted in or on the weapon, intelligent mobile applications, and cloud-based analytics that aggregate device data into insights on weapon performance and mission-critical, situation-dependent data streams for our customers across national defense, law enforcement, and security.    We are looking for a Senior Systems Engineer to work across the engineering organization (firmware, hardware, mobile, backend, and data science) as the connective tissue that keeps a complex, multi-domain product coherent. You will own the systems-engineering discipline: requirements, interfaces, architecture documentation, and the development processes that let a fast-moving startup ship reliable hardware-plus-software systems. This is not a paper-only role. We want an engineer who can dig into the technical substance across the stack, from a firmware timing issue or a sensor-integration constraint to a networking ICD or a cloud data pipeline, and weigh in credibly, then capture the decision so the whole team moves faster. 

Role Responsibilities - How You Will Make an Impact

• Serve as the systems engineer across the engineering team, bridging hardware, firmware, and cloud, and owning end-to-end system architecture and the interfaces where domains meet

• Capture, decompose, and maintain current and future system requirements spanning the embedded device, mobile applications, and cloud analytics, and trace them from customer need through verification
