Even if you hadn’t previously considered working in national security, don’t rule out Rebellion Defense.

Building mission-focused AI products for the defense and security of the United States and its allies, employees are united in their conviction that every individual should take on the responsibility of improving national defense. A collaborative culture allows the combined talents of every “Rebel” to shine through, and harnessing a diverse range of skill sets is precisely what enables the company to succeed in its mission of protecting civilians by empowering service members with cutting-edge technology.

Part of a supportive, remote team

Wherever and whenever he works, Chase Kimball knows Rebellion has his back. “Life is very full, both at work and outside of work,” he said. Leading revenue operations, he keeps a fast pace to accomplish goals that require “time, focus and energy.” Luckily, Rebellion’s culture of openness and accountability means all are trusted to manage their own schedules. That autonomy matters to Kimball, who keeps just as busy on the homefront. “I have two small children with a third on the way, and I also serve as the head of our local church,” he said. “That demands presence, attention and discernment.”

We temporarily relocated for the initial nine months of the pandemic to be with my parents. Rebellion was completely supportive.

Holding Rebellion accountable to DEI

Jacqueline Kazil

AI/ML Manager

On Rebellion’s DEI council, Jackie Kazil directly plans and coordinates support for affinity month celebrations, inclusivity training and partnerships with groups like ByteBack and PyLadies. Also a ByteBack board member, Kazil backs its efforts to offer inclusive tech training to under-resourced communities, to which Rebellion has donated IT equipment. “We seek partnerships between Rebellion and ByteBack to volunteer time and mentor students,” she said. “We’ve also run multiple fundraisers internally to support ByteBack and, when able, support direct job placement at Rebellion.”

Rebellion will achieve success by ensuring diversity in our workforce, cultivating equity in all aspects of the organization, and engendering inclusivity in how we work with one another and our customers.

A workplace where opportunities abound

Since starting in a contract role, Alicia Kauth has seized opportunities for advancement at every turn. “My responsibilities have varied over the past few years at Rebellion,” she said. “What has kept me engaged and growing is the ability to create new responsibilities for myself in areas I strive to either learn more about or enjoy doing the most.” Amid making Rebellion’s coordination and talent teams more efficient — “I strive to give our team every competitive advantage possible in the battle for talent,” she said — Kauth rests assured her own manager is keeping her career goals in mind.

There is a great deal of opportunity to create a path for yourself; of course, you must drive this creation, but I have been given freedom and support to do this ever since I joined almost two years ago.
