These seven principles define how we think, decide, and execute. They are not aspirational. They are the working standard by which all employees are evaluated.The Seven Principles<ul><li style="line-height:115%">Own It. If a problem touches your function, it is yours until it is solved or explicitly transferred. Do not wait. Do not delegate upward. Do not hide behind process. Ownership means driving to resolution, not monitoring status.</li><li style="line-height:115%">Kill the Wrong Fight. Before optimizing a solution, question whether the problem is yours to solve. If an opportunity requires MSI to become something we are not, kill it fast. The discipline to say no is what protects our ability to say yes to the right things.</li><li style="line-height:115%">Move Before You're Told. Speed is MSI's compounding advantage. We move when directionally correct and adjust in motion. Leaders who wait for permission are not leading. We would rather correct a fast decision than wait for a perfect one.</li><li style="line-height:115%">Solve Before You Contract. Prove the integration works before formalizing the relationship. Capability first, paperwork follows. Working capability is the strongest negotiating position and the most honest form of business development.</li><li style="line-height:115%">Integrate First. MSI's moat is not any single technology. It is the ability to integrate modular systems faster and more effectively than anyone else. Every decision should reinforce our position as the integration hub.</li><li style="line-height:115%">Say It Now. Silence is not alignment. If you disagree, say so, with data, with reasoning, and with an alternative path. Passive execution is institutional risk.</li><li style="line-height:115%">Build Beyond Yourself. If your function depends on your presence to operate, you have not built anything. Develop your people. Document your processes. Create depth that survives your absence.</li></ul>Benefits<ul><li>401(k) with employer match</li><li>Dental Insurance</li><li>Disability Insurance</li><li>Health Insurance</li><li>Vision Insurance</li><li>Paid Parental and Maternity Leave</li><li>Life Insurance</li><li>Paid Time Off – 120 hours per year to start (prorated in first year of employment)</li><li>Continuing Education</li><li>Annual Year End Paid Holiday Closure</li><li>Employer Paid Uniforms</li></ul>Classification<ul><li>Position is full-time, Non-Exempt</li></ul> MSI Defense Solutions is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action employer.
