Veterans can search for jobs using any of the three supported US military occupational specialty codes (MOS, AFSC, or NEC).
Mission-focused. Service-oriented. Teamwork. Integrity. All words that describe our nation's service members. At MITRE, we're guided by the same values—and we welcome and respect the technical expertise members of the armed forces bring to our mission: solving problems for a safer world. It's why veterans make up nearly 17% of our workforce.
As you map out your civilian career, we invite you to consider MITRE. Why? Because we don't just offer you a job. We offer you the opportunity to continue serving our nation and the world. This is a place where your specialized training and skills add tremendous value.
We've been true to our mission—solving problems for a safer world—for more than 60 years. Every day, we make an impact in areas as diverse and interconnected as defense, intelligence, homeland security, cybersecurity, aviation, healthcare, and civil systems. We take pride in our unique role, partnering with government and collaborating with industry and academia to effect change on a global scale. We're a not-for-profit company with a focus on the public good.
With us, you'll be part of a team of technical experts, many of them veterans themselves, tackling complex challenges. You'll apply your knowledge, experience, and passion to advance our public-interest mission. You can mentor others and find mentors.
You chose the military because you wanted to serve our country. We offer you a chance to continue your journey.

“I started my intelligence career while serving in the Army in Hawaii as part of the advance team at Kunia, an underground facility in the pineapple fields. Having worked with our Great Power Competition initiative, I felt it was time to return to guiding projects that directly support the warfighters and their missions.”
Veteran Jim Houchens
Department Chief Engineer
"One thing I love about MITRE is having the flexibility not just to support one sponsor [of a federal R&D center] fully, but to support multiple sponsors, especially those with intersecting challenges. My colleagues are fantastic about cross-mission collaboration and information sharing."
