With a civilian job in the DoD, you get to work alongside the nation’s Soldiers, bringing a level of expertise and skill that keeps the Army ready for anything.
The Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Cyber, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C5ISR) Center supports the U.S. Army’s mission by providing science and technology solutions. As one of the eight science and technology domains within the Army Futures Command Combat Capabilities Development Command (DEVCOM) our civilian scientists, engineers, technicians and analysts develop technologies that make it possible for America’s Soldiers to successfully defend our nation and its interests anywhere in the world.
