General Atomics Intelligence

About:

General Atomics Integrated Intelligence Inc. (GA-I3) develops cutting-edge software solutions that transform raw data into actionable intelligence. We specialize in real-time global situational awareness and battle management, processing petabytes of data from hundreds of sources across air, land, and sea. Our systems support tens of thousands of users at all levels of the DoD and Intelligence Community and enable critical decision-making for national security missions.

We process hundreds of thousands of observations per minute, operating at the scale of global sensor networks and battlefield telemetry. Our backend architecture leverages technologies like Kafka, AWS, NiFi, and GeoMesa—the latter of which we designed and open-sourced—to deliver high-throughput, mission-resilient systems that turn streaming data into real-time intelligence.

Why GA-I3?

At GA-I3, we’re not chasing hype or building throwaway demos—we’re solving complex, mission-critical problems that matter. Unlike younger firms chasing the next funding round, we’ve spent decades earning the trust of our users and delivering systems they rely on every day. And unlike traditional defense contractors, we’re nimble, privately held, and able to make long-term decisions in the best interest of our customers and our country—not quarterly earnings reports.

Our users love our software. Our customers come back because we deliver. And our engineers stay because they get to work on real problems, with real impact, alongside people who care.

If you're looking for a place where engineering excellence meets enduring mission, GA-I3 is where you belong.

About the program

The CPP is a network of companies and organizations that collaborate with UVA’s Computer Science Department to enrich student experiences through curricular and extracurricular engagement. Members often seek to connect with students for internships and job opportunities, and they can also provide feedback on the department’s curriculum and student development. CPP is distinct from UVA Engineering’s broader 40Core corporate engagement program, though coordination occurs when organizations are part of both. CPP activities are also aligned with the School’s Center for Engineering Career Development. Organizations can join CPP by making an annual contribution at one of three levels, each offering specific benefits. Custom engagement options may also be available.
