The Impact
AIS is a leading cyber and information security company supporting mission critical operations across the DoD, intelligence community, commerce and beyond. Our roots trace back to the very beginnings of cybersecurity research, when a group of hackers worked around a pool table until they became profitable enough to order office furniture. They hung a pirate flag on the wall to represent their decision to do things differently. Those pioneers started AIS because they not only believed in the potential of the industry, but the necessity to provide the United States with the offensive and defensive capabilities needed to gain the high ground in cyber warfare.
Decades later, the pirate flag waves tall outside of our headquarters, and we continue to develop and envision technologies that protect our nation and our warfighters. The challenge is that there is no end in sight. We’re looking for the best and brightest people to support our mission. When you join our team, no matter your role, you’ll be contributing to the security of our nation and our way of life.
The Culture
You’re not just a number here. Founded in 2001, AIS is a privately-owned company committed to excellence in all facets. We pride ourselves on offering some of the best benefits seen in the industry and ensuring our brilliant team members have exciting, challenging and impactful work and a fun, values-driven environment to collaborate in. We celebrate the unique backgrounds and experiences of our people and encourage new ideas, innovation and the autonomy to create the future and career they want with our support.
