What We Do
IERUS, at its core, is a high-end technology firm. IERUS recruits and retains a work force of highly skilled and educated engineers, scientists, and mathematicians. While IERUS’s core is electro-optics/infra-red (EOIR) and electromagnetic (EM) technology, IERUS engineers come from various backgrounds. IERUS employees are our most valuable asset, and we are committed to recruiting high caliber personnel. IERUS emphasizes creativity and fosters an environment that encourages employees to pursue technically challenging problems that fit within their interest and capability set. IERUS’s work force education ranges from bachelors through PhDs, specializing in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Physics, and Math. Approximately one quarter of IERUS’s technical staff have PhDs, over three quarters hold a Masters level degree or above, and the remaining have bachelors engineering degrees. This spread means IERUS can apply in-depth technical leadership where needed but has the labor distribution base to solve problems cost efficiently.
