Procurement Specialist

Our Vision

Rampart's vision is to be the fabric of connectivity.

Our Values

We believe that privacy is a right.

We aspire to advance the boundaries of science.

We affirm that the sum of us is greater than some of us.

Who are we?

We're an early-stage, deep-tech company based in Maryland. Our passion for technology is matched by our commitment to the employee experience. Through dedicated collaboration, we partner closely with our team to seek out the most talented professionals with a passion for mission. We routinely create opportunities for continuous learning and growth, both technically and interpersonally, in pursuit of unlocking the full potential of each employee. Our goal is to nurture a high-performance team and culture by hiring individuals who are self-motivated and thrive on solving complex problems.

As an organization, we think deeply about foundational challenges in systems, signals, and science. We've advanced the bounds of information theory, secured independent validation and patents, and built systems and networks that are revolutionizing secure communications. Our solutions are fundamental advances in science that should not be considered possible and we are looking for professionals who want to help continue to push the boundaries of science.
