John Lund is the principal research engineer for the U.S. Army Rapid Capability Critical Technology Office (RCCTO), specializing in electro-optical systems and lasers.

“There is little practical information available for students who wish to examine the pros and cons of a career within the defense industrial workspace. I can help answer questions with perspective from ~40 years experience in both private industry and U.S. government organizations. Common specialties at the federal level include business, finance, science, research and engineering.”
