Metrea delivers effects-as-a-service to national security partners across five domains and more than a dozen mission areas, including airborne ISR, electronic warfare, secure communications, and advanced simulation. We build vertically integrated full stacks of capability—designing, building, and operating turnkey solutions that let customers scale capacity while benefiting from continuous cycles of innovation.
With operators and engineers under one roof, we close the gap between lab and field, connecting design with effect. Our solutions are built for elegance: effective, efficient, and evolving. This approach enables our partners to do more with less and achieve outsized, asymmetric advantage against rapidly evolving threats. Headquartered in Washington, DC, Metrea has facilities across the United States, the United Kingdom, Europe, and beyond.
Working with Metrea’s General Counsel and Legal Contracts and Compliance (LCC) Team, you will conduct background and legal research, draft and manage documents for various business entities, and support the administration of a multinational corporation. This role offers a broad interest in defense and security matters, exposing you to the complicated legal and compliance issues that arise within the aerospace and national security sectors.
As a member of this dynamic team, you will engage with colleagues spread out globally, presenting unique international legal and compliance challenges. You can expect a wide range of assignments supporting the legal, contracts, and compliance functions, including exposure to commercial contract disputes, negotiations, trade compliance, employee relations, and commercial finance and investment (M&A).
At Metrea, our single core value, Rooted in Humility, and our four cornerstone attributes—Entrepreneurial, Systematic, Discerning, and Over-Deliver—form what we call our Teammate Firmware. Just like technical firmware connects software and hardware, our Firmware is the constant interface between our mission and our people. It defines how we show up, how we work together, and how we solve complex problems.
Our team Firmware creates a web-like, hyper-collaborative, dynamically hierarchical way of working that helps us adapt quickly, communicate openly, and distribute decision-making to where expertise actually lives. It enables groups to self-organize around hard problems, shift fluidly as priorities evolve, and operate with the trust, curiosity, and discipline required in a complex mission space. This foundation allows us to deliver elegant, effective solutions and uphold our purpose: protecting our precious inheritance.
