Intern, Systems Engineering

Overview

The Integrated Systems and Solutions (InSYS) division designs and develops leading-edge R&D technology that supports demanding market needs. SRI maintains a state-of-the-art products portfolio that includes real-time video processors, integrated video and sensor exploitation solutions, and instrumented training systems for government and commercial sectors.

InSyS's work in intelligence systems ranges from project planning and engineering to installation and field support.
