I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at MITRE (Boston, MA) in Feb 2026
Interview
I had a phone screening interview for a Wireless Research Engineer position. The interview was conducted by one of the engineers and lasted about 15 minutes.
The process was straightforward and not overly formal. The interviewer started with a brief introduction about the team and the role, followed by questions about my background and research experience.
Most of the discussion focused on:
My work in wireless communication and signal processing
Experience with RF systems and I/Q data
Projects related to machine learning or research work

They asked that I present on a technical topic of my choice. After the presentation, they had other people in the department ask questions about the presentation, then on my resume in general.
