Radiance Technologies
Microelectronics Systems Architect with Security Clearance
Radiance Technologies, Huntsville, Alabama, United States, 35824
Overview
Radiance Technologies, a rapidly growing employee-owned company, is searching for a talented Systems Architect to join the Microelectronic Technology Operation (MTO). MTO focuses on anti-tamper and hardware security at levels ranging from secure microelectronics packaging to system-level security of weapons systems. MTO develops and analyzes anti-tamper/protective technologies, IC failure analysis, reverse engineering, full spectrum cyber operations, and cyber tool development and solutions. MTO conducts vulnerability research to preclude hardware exploitation, side-channel attacks, and fault-injection attacks. The team advances state-of-the-art for the Department of Defense, building a portfolio of technologies from TRL2 to TRL9. Responsibilities
Contribute to MTO's technology development roadmaps for secure electronics and microelectronics. Keep a pulse on broader industry trends, injecting awareness and seeding early exploratory techniques/approaches/capabilities into the broader Operation at appropriate times. Conceptualize solutions to open-ended problems, decompose solutions into implementable requirements, and convey design intent to a broader team. Conduct hands-on embedded software/firmware/ASIC/algorithm development and testing. Collect and analyze data to inform decisions and design. Assist MTO in capturing incremental and adjacent business through customer interactions, proposal development, and authoring enhanced whitepapers. Contribute to establishing capabilities and processes to convert low-TRL S&T developments into low-to-mid-volume production products. Participate in other research and development tasks in the microelectronic security field. Collaborative Environment
Interact with MTO Operations Manager & Division Managers, MTO Engineers & Technicians, Tech Writers, Customers, and SubContractors to succeed in this role. Location & Travel
Work Location: Huntsville, AL — Radiance HQ or on Redstone Arsenal as needed, with the mix varying over time based on project demands. Up to 20% travel outside the Huntsville area. Required Qualifications
US citizenship with the ability to obtain and maintain a security clearance. BS in Electrical or Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a relevant technical field. Mid-level Architect: 10+ years of relevant work experience; Senior-level Architect: 15+ years of relevant work experience. Demonstrated ability to evaluate and solve open-ended problems. Demonstrated experience establishing, directing, and transitioning complex technology development. Ability to quickly pivot focus between the big picture and low-level details. Proficiency in explaining complicated technical topics to both engineering teams and non-technical audiences. Excellent communication and coordination with stakeholders and customers (oral, written, and formal presentations). Strong analytical, debugging, and troubleshooting skills. Desired Qualifications
Master’s Degree or Ph.D. in a relevant technical field. Active Top Secret clearance. Advanced knowledge of microelectronics and hardware security techniques (anti-tamper/protection technologies). Knowledge of various Weapons Systems architectures. Experience with multiple Government agencies (e.g., Army CCDC, DARPA, AFRL, NSA) and the DoD Anti-Tamper Community. Proficiency with Verilog/VHDL/SystemVerilog. Advanced knowledge of Roots of Security / Secure Processors. Experience implementing microcode. Knowledge of advanced packaging for microelectronics (3DHI, RTL, silicon interposers, etc.) and the DoD microelectronics supply chain. Experience leading multiple simultaneous technical projects or tasks. Experience with cryptographic algorithms and applications, including post-quantum crypto. Real-time OS experience. Willingness to mentor junior technical personnel. Expertise in Hardware Security / Vulnerability Research, including nation-state level reverse-engineering threat vectors. Hands-on electronics and/or microelectronics laboratory experience. Knowledge of semiconductor device physics. Experience with semiconductor Failure Analysis tools & techniques. Clearance
