Lockheed Martin wouldn’t be a leader in digital safety without top talent.
Hear from some of the cyber experts securing our customers missions with world-class technology.
Sheldon
Chief Principal Engineer
Q:
What role does diversity and inclusion have within cybersecurity?
A:
A large role in my opinion. You know, when you really think about the process--that hackers and other folks that are trying to get into or disrupt systems--there's a lot of diversity of thought and creativity that goes into that by understanding how a system works and how they break. I think to counter that you also need to have that same level of diversity and thought and I think that comes from having people who have varying backgrounds and experiences that can come to the table. They may not look at a problem the same way that everyone else is looking at a problem.
Jamie
Multi-Functional Engineering and Science Manager
Q:
Who has been your mentor on your cyber journey, and how are you mentoring others?
A:
I've had so many mentors and mentees informally. Lots of different people have helped me learn individually through different thought processes. While you help others grow, you grow too! Everyone is here to support you no matter what you're doing in your career. Your colleagues can help you create a unique career path, teach you about cyber and help you forage your own path in the field.

Jake
Cyber Software Engineer
Q:
Why do you think Lockheed Martin is the leader in digital safety?
A:
We are really putting an effort into hiring top talent and we're focused on getting great candidates into rewarding, challenging, and impactful cyber careers they enjoy. Lockheed Martin C&I hosts monthly recruiting events which seek to attract and screen top talent to fill some of our government’s most critical roles. We also have significant history working with various government customers, so we have the merit and track-record required to succeed in new and exciting contracts. Additionally, Cyber & Intelligence sponsors IRADs, which are independent research and development facilities. These IRADs provide us with advantages on building talent and gaining expertise on new and exciting technologies. Employees working in these IRAD departments really get great hands-on experience with some stuff.
Yajayra
Program Manager, Senior Manager
Q:
What's next for cyber defense?
A:
Behavioral analytics to help determine patterns for future threats will helpful in preventing future breaches. Embedded hardware authentication provides an extra level of security when identifying a user's identity. Finally, Blockchain security creates a near-impenetrable network to keep hackers at bay. A lot of machine learning and AI evolve into the next generation to protect from hardware
Angelo
Systems Engineer
Q:
What's it like working in the Cyber field at Lockheed Martin?
A:
I'm learning more and more information every day as we come up with new developments and as we come up with new missions. To compare what I've learned working in aeronautics, in the RMS cyber field you're not necessarily working on an actual physical product you can see that keeps everybody safe every single day. But what we work on and develop is just as important, if not more important, than say, an F-35. We can see an F-35, we can physically touch it, we know it's there. We can hear it. It's a full-on sensory perceptive experience. But there are cyber systems for communications and everything else, too. So where you know the F-35 is a physical product, cyber ties everything together to keep everything in communication that helps take it to the next level.
Brianna
Engineering Leadership Development Program Graduate
Q:
Tell us about your most memorable/interesting technology project (so far).
A:
My most memorable/interesting technology project I've been able to work on has been working with submarines. I was able to participate in a rotation for combat ships by installing anti-submarine warfare on one of the ships. I got to visit the ship, add capabilities depending on its use and participated in systems designs, drawings and government reviews.
