SciTec, a Firefly Aerospace company, delivers advanced sensing and mission data processing systems that give U.S. and allied warfighters faster, more affordable, and more resilient decision advantage.
We transform raw sensor data into actionable intelligence through government owned, open architecture software that reduces vendor lock, accelerates integration, and enables rapid upgrades as threats evolve. Our capabilities strengthen missile warning, space domain awareness, and multi domain operations by delivering real time, high fidelity information operators can trust.
Our teams integrate sensor physics, algorithm development, real time processing, modeling and simulation, instrumentation, and modern software engineering to solve the hardest technical challenges in defense and space. We move capability from research to operational use at speed, fielding software that is iterated with operators, accepted by the mission, and ready for real world employment.
Together with Firefly Aerospace, we are advancing vertically integrated space and defense solutions that combine launch, spacecraft, sensing, and mission data processing to deliver capability to the field faster and for less.
We are always seeking engineers and scientists who want to build systems that matter. Systems that strengthen deterrence, enhance situational awareness, and deliver operational advantage to the warfighter.
