Smart Information Flow Technologies is looking to expand! We are looking for senior researchers as well as student interns.

SIFT is a growing company, based in Minneapolis, MN and conducting cutting edge research and development in a variety of human-automation integration fields. We value research and innovation, creativity and interdisciplinary approaches to improving human-machine relationships.

Our projects typically involve a mix of research and development. Applicants should expect to be exposed to a wide variety of tasks, ranging from requirements elicitation, design, implementation and testing/evaluation to research, proposal writing, and concept development. Furthermore, ideal applicants should be comfortable assimilating ideas from research literature, expanding and refining such ideas, and developing prototype software to demonstrate and experiment.

Full-time Positions

For full-time, permanent positions, applicants should have a Masters degree, Ph.D., or equivalent experience in a relevant field and should demonstrate more advanced proficiency in some of the skills described. More senior individuals will be considered as well.

Experience with proposal preparation and/or program management is a plus, but not required. Full-time applicants would have the opportunity to grow into securing and leading their own research and development programs.

Intern Positions

SIFT internships are open to graduate and advanced undergraduate students. Internships are typically 6-12 months in duration, though we are willing to negotiate the term. SIFT interns have praised the range of development opportunities their internships offered-including opportunities to take a leading role in the design, implementation, and evaluation of applications, as well as roles in proposal preparation and even program management. Publication is encouraged and much of our work is suitable for dissertation research. Interested applicants will be offered the opportunity to contact previous interns to compare notes.
