About The Position

Expedition Technology (EXP) is seeking a mid-level Field Deployment Engineer to act as a technical liaison between operational users, customers, and product development teams. This role involves identifying new customer opportunities, supporting field deployments, building strong relationships with operators and mission owners, understanding operational challenges, and translating these into product enhancements and future capability development. EXP specializes in enhancing ISR capabilities (GEOINT, computer vision, RF/wireless spectrum analysis, SIGINT) using AI, ML, and mathematical principles. This position will specifically support the REALM product, which addresses a variety of RF/wireless anomaly detection use cases, including Technical Surveillance Counter Measures (TSCM) and spectrum awareness/collection enablement. The team comprises a blend of engineering and technical talent, alongside former USG personnel. This hybrid role will contribute to both sales/business development and product development with existing customers across the IC and DOW. Responsibilities include partnering with the sales/BD team to drive new business and supporting the product development team with existing customer engagements. This will involve attending conferences, trade shows, and customer events to demonstrate REALM capabilities, deploying REALM at test events, working with potential and existing customers, and gathering feedback for product enhancement. The core mission is to enable customers to achieve their objectives more effectively and safely. The ideal candidate is an empathetic listener who can build trust, understands diverse technical and operational mission parameters (TSCM, UTS threat mitigation, signature reduction, collection enablement), and can creatively translate capability gaps into future product development.
