Mission Engineering Lead

Role Overview

LMI is a mission-driven digital solutions provider accelerating government impact through innovation, speed, and commercial-grade technology. We are seeking a Mission Engineering Lead to own the hardware strategy, deployment architecture, and technical evolution of our RFID and mesh-networking solution stack.

What You Will Do

Own the end-to-end hardware system architecture across RFID, edge devices, and mesh networks, ensuring all components interoperate seamlessly and perform reliably in real-world mission environments. Design and guide deployment architectures for complex operational settings, translating mission requirements into scalable, site-specific hardware configurations, network designs, and installation approaches.

Why It Might Be a Fit

The ideal candidate can move fluidly between component-level technical tradeoffs and site-level solution architecture, helping mature our hardware roadmap while solving customer-specific deployment challenges. This includes defining how systems operate in constrained and contested environments, how device data securely integrates into enterprise platforms, and how the overall hardware stack supports accreditation and mission assurance requirements.

Requirements

• 10+ years of experience in systems engineering, hardware engineering, or technical solution architecture
• Proven expertise designing and integrating hardware systems (e.g., RFID, IoT, edge devices, networking equipment)
• Experience translating mission or operational requirements into deployment-ready system architectures
• Strong understanding of hardware-to-software integration
• Familiarity with DoD cybersecurity and accreditation environments
• U.S. Citizenship and ability to obtain and maintain a Secret (or higher) security clearance

Benefits

• Salaried High Fringe/Full-Time
• Target salary range: $130,000 - 180,000
