Department Summary:

The MITRE Corporation’s All-Domain (ADI) Integration Department (N163) supports the development and delivery of integrated, agile mission capabilities that will enable Command and Control across the US and Coalition forces to operate in a cohesive manner at the time and place of their choosing. ADI’s focus is to (1) develop joint, all-domain operational concepts; (2) mature these concepts through realizable architectures; and (3) transition the developed capabilities to the warfighter. This involves the near-term modernization of fielded capabilities and development of next generation warfighter operations in all phases of systems evolution: from concept exploration, through experimentation and fielding.

To achieve this broad set of outcomes for our Government Sponsors, N163 seeks staff that have knowledge or interest in several related areas of expertise, including multi-domain sensor operations and architectures; Command and Control (C2); Intelligence, Surveillance & Reconnaissance (ISR) integration and exploitation; Position Navigation and Timing (PNT); end-to-end kill chain integration and assessment; and platform integration. These domain competencies are complemented by a variety of technical skills which enable program execution and include systems engineering, modeling & simulation, and software and hardware prototyping. MITRE and the ADI department work together with Government sponsors and the warfighter to serve as technical advisors bringing domain experience and state-of-the-art solutions to their most demanding operational challenges. Successful candidates will join our team and immediately begin tackling emerging, high-priority challenges in the areas of Combined Joint All-Domain Command & Control (CJADC2).
