Defense MicroElectronics Activity (DMEA)

A Department of Defense (DoD) field activity that has been operating since 1997. Small and engineer-centric. ~90% are engineer/scientist. Provide solutions to other US Government agencies and allies. Some tasks are engineering brand-new products and some tasks are re-engineering devices to keep legacy systems running. We do not compete with private industry but regularly work side-by-side with industry to get stuff done. We also have the only semiconductor foundry still operational within the federal government.
