Job Description

Welcome students and soon-to-be graduates! Thank you for your interest in Pacific Defense! Please find additional information about the company as well as details on how to apply below.

About Us
Pacific Defense is designed to support the DoD’s disciplined movement to modular open standards and to mirror the way military services address EMS warfare – holistic mission planning and execution. The company’s approach inherently enables what it refers to as a rapid prototyping paradigm – embedding a commercial mentality into the defense industry. Products are designed from the outset for modern, AI-driven autonomy and CMOSS and SOSA-aligned hardware and software solutions. This includes state-of-the-art processing that can readily follow the evolution of commercial technology with complete data sharing across networks and platforms.

Headquartered in El Segundo, California, Pacific Defense takes an organic, commercial-minded approach to military-use electromagnetic spectrum technologies, and solutions. Focus areas include autonomous systems, command and control, communications, cyber operations, intelligence collection, and electronic warfare. Pacific Defense takes an innovative approach to developing military-use advanced solutions delivering EW, SIGINT, Comms and C2 capabilities to the DoD. This includes state-of-the-art processing that can readily follow the evolution of commercial technology with complete data sharing across networks and platforms.
