🎉 Join us in celebrating our Naval Information Warfare Center (NIWC) Pacific, Philadelphia team members selected for 2024 AFCEA International Technology Awards. 🎉 Luke Megonigal, an information system security engineer, has earned a 2024 AFCEA Meritorious Rising Star Award for achievement in emerging technology. Luke generates technical papers and develops software for machine learning (ML)/natural language processing (NLP) projects, having led his team to place third in a Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) competition against top industry competitors. He has been crucial to the NIWC Pacific, Cyber Science & Technology department’s NLP Technology Transition Classifier and is currently supporting multiple Naval commands in developing Controlled Unclassified Information Classification Automation Tool technology for the US Navy community. “I am immensely grateful for this award,” said Luke. “It has been a joy and privilege to work at NIWC Pacific, under outstanding leadership and alongside amazing teams. I want to thank AFCEA for this recognition, and all my colleagues at NIWC Pacific. I hope to continue providing value where I can.” Dr. Kevin O’Malley, a leading figure in creativity and innovation, has earned a 2024 AFCEA Technology Innovation Award by excelling in the development of advanced technologies in data science, ML, and NLP to enhance warfighter capabilities. He played a crucial role in implementing NAVY 311's Kinetic artificial intelligence (AI) and ML tool suite, improving the understanding of warfighter needs and streamlining Microsoft's Flank Speed rollout for the Navy. “It is so tremendously rewarding to serve alongside scientists and engineers that are bringing cutting edge AI technology to the warfighter,” said Kevin. 🎉 Congratulations Luke and Kevin and thank you for your contributions to fleet capability and readiness. 🎉 #OneNAVWAR #NAVWAR #NIWCPacific #Philly #TechTuesday

This Wednesday we are excited to recognize an important #NIWCAtlantic teammate Lieutenant James Kempa. We caught up with him while he was attending the 2024 Sea Air and Space Symposium in Washington, DC. There, he told us how important his work is for his fellow #warfighters to maintain #missionreadiness and why he has enjoyed his service in the U.S. Navy! #workforcewednesday #service #proud

Summertime and the livin's easy... 😎 ☀ Especially at the fun and informative #NIWCPacific Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) Department summer kickoff event! Hosted last week, hundreds of team members from across the center came out to learn more about ISR's efforts in supporting the warfighter, enjoy good food and company and take their turn driving unmanned vehicles in the Transducer Evaluation Center (TRANSDEC)'s six-million-gallon anechoic pool. Even our NIWC executive director got in on the fun. Here Mike "Spock" McMillan drives a remote operated underwater vehicle in the TRANSDEC pool. 💦 #NAVWAR #NavyTech #NavyIntelligence #NavySurveillance #NavyReconnaissance #ISR #LoveWhereYouWork #FutureNavy #UUV #unmannedvehicles

Squids in backpacks?! Wait ... Whaaaaat?!?!? 🦑 🎒 Take a dive deep with us on this first episode of the #NIWCPacific new podcast as we unravel the mystery of “squids in backpacks.” Trust us, it's not your typical Navy tale! Anu Venkatesh, Ph.D., a neuroscientist for the Cyber Science &Technology Department, talks with Michael O’Brien, an engineer with the Cryogenic Electronics and Quantum Research Branch, about why he’s putting quantum SQUIDS in very cold backpacks (as in, -321ºF cold). ❄❄❄ Hint: the SQUIDS are less squid, and more about superconducting quantum sensors.

Have you seen our #NIWCAtlantic team's latest video?? All about a large scale Naval SCIENCE EXPERIMENT! The video focuses on the importance of the 2024 System of Systems Naval Integration Experiment (SoSNIE). During this year’s expansive event, more than 200 NIWC Atlantic engineers, scientists and technical managers collaborated on nearly 50 C4ISR systems, analyzing data exchanges across local airspace to evaluate the proficiency of end-to-end targeting, fires and communications. #scienceexperiment #warfighter #technology #communications https://lnkd.in/eYxWukVd
