Location: Pittsburgh, PA (preferred) or remote with ability to access regional lab facilities
Compensation: $8,000–$10,000/month (1099 contract basis) – contingent on SBIR award

Position Type: Part-time or full-time, temporary contract (Phase I – 6 to 18 months)
Axyde Analytics is seeking SBIR-ready Principal Investigators (PIs)and senior technical contributors to lead R&D on VIREN — a modular, schema-based compliance infrastructure designed to bring traceability, certification, and digital trust to regulated physical and digital systems.
VIREN SBIR efforts will span multiple domains, including export control, tribal governance, battery QA, magnet certification, and AI/ML traceability. These roles are contingent on SBIR award and will focus on developing VIREN modules that go beyond code — including cert artifacts, field test integrations, and real-world compliance workflows.
Each PI will be aligned to one or more specific modules (e.g., CAINO, MX, FTD), and will work under a central Program Manager based in Richmond, VA, with core system design centered in Pittsburgh, PA.
Field test documentation systems for degraded or disconnected environments
Export certification overlays with schema-locked proof-of-origin
Battery QA traceability with VIN or lot-level artifact capture
Tribal governance and ritual-linked compliance validation
AI/ML trust and veracity scoring (CAINO) for training datasets
Policy-to-proof translation engines for NIST, ITAR, or DOE regulatory mapping
Physical certification artifact generation (labels, printed certs, edge triggers)
Serve as named or supporting PI on one or more VIREN SBIR proposals
Lead execution of one or more modules (e.g., schema translation, export cert, tribal overlays)
Collaborate with Axyde’s Program Manager and core system team to integrate deliverables
Participate in artifact development, report writing, and field validation loops
Assist with proposal development if available (optional but welcomed)
PhD or equivalent experience in Systems Engineering, Cyber-Physical Systems, Policy Automation, Information Architecture, or a related field
Strong familiarity with one or more of the following:
Compliance frameworks (NIST, FedRAMP, ITAR)
TRL mapping or acquisition documentation
Metadata tagging / digital signatures
Tribal governance or export policy
Battery/magnet compliance or DoD certification pathways
SBIR or federal grant experience a plus
Located near Pittsburgh or Richmond, or available to travel for occasional lab or test activities
$8,000–$10,000/month (1099) under a work-for-hire model
Axyde retains all IP and data rights — no co-ownership or licensing
Flexible scope and schedule, aligned to SBIR phase and module complexity
Opportunity to shape the compliance backbone for critical U.S. sectors
Phase II/III continuity and expansion opportunities for aligned contributors
