Full Job Description

CHAOS Inc. is a global technology company delivering next-generation capabilities to the defense and critical industrial sectors. Founded in 2022 by a seasoned leadership team, CHAOS has quickly become the place where world-class multi-disciplinary engineers come to build mission-critical technologies. CHAOS has a mission-focused culture, dedicated to solving the toughest technical challenges. Its unique agile engineering approach enables rapid prototyping, while deep partnerships with defense and industry ensure real-world solutions. Role Overview: Technical Operations Engineers sit at the intersection of technology and real-world mission environments. You’ll ensure CHAOS systems operate flawlessly in the field — integrating hardware and software, diagnosing complex system issues, and delivering rapid fixes and improvements. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in dynamic, hands-on settings — comfortable with Linux terminals, network traces, and hardware wiring as much as Python scripts and dashboards. You’ll be embedded with customers, integrating CHAOS systems into existing infrastructure, and ensuring reliability under real-world conditions. Responsibilities: Integrate CHAOS software, sensors, and RF devices with customer systems — both physically (networking, power, and hardware bring-up) and via software interfaces (data pipelines, APIs). Debug complex edge issues spanning hardware, software, and networking layers. Develop scripts, diagnostics, and automation tools to improve reliability and observability. Capture operational feedback and collaborate with internal engineering teams to drive product improvements. Document system configurations, troubleshooting steps, and lessons learned for both internal and customer audiences. Travel (typically up to 50%) to customer and test sites for deployments, troubleshooting, and mission support. Minimum Requirements: Strong technical foundation with a degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Physics, or related fi
