STR

STR is a U.S. technology company founded in 2010 that develops and applies technology to national security problems, delivering cybersecurity, distributed sensing, and AI solutions for defense, intelligence, and homeland security customers. The company employs approximately 800 people across five offices nationwide. Its technical work spans radar, sonar, communications, electronic warfare, autonomous systems, signals exploitation, and tracking, alongside next-generation sensors and machine learning and analytics.

For robotics and autonomy engineers, the relevant surface area is the intersection of sensing and autonomy: distributed sensing architectures, next-generation sensors, radar and sonar, signals exploitation, and tracking feed into autonomous systems work, with AI, machine learning, and analytics applied across those domains. The work is oriented toward deployed mission contexts in defense, intelligence, and homeland security rather than consumer or commercial robotics.

STR operates on a hybrid work model and describes its culture around challenging, high-impact work, creative problem-solving across multiple technical disciplines, and sustained innovation and technical excellence, with an emphasis on professional growth. The company recruits engineers interested in applying technology to national security problems.
