Near the end of 2020, like many folks, I began thinking critically about what I wanted out of work. At that point, I had been in the People Ops/HR space for seven years, fortunate to have worked at several great companies and grown my experience. However, after interviewing around, I found myself doubtful that I’d […]
In our latest blog post, we chat with Georgia Tech master’s student Himanshu Goyal about his internship experience at Galois. Here, Himanshu discusses his passion for software systems, Galois’s unique culture, and how his internship experience helped hone his engineering and research skills. Read on to learn more about Himanshu’s journey. Why Galois? How did […]
Once per year, Galwegians are invited to gather together to celebrate the life of the company (and its swashbuckling revolutionary namesake). As part of this year’s festivities, the engineering team embarked on an epic race against time in Galois’ first-ever Game Jam! Each of the nine participating teams was given 24 hours to come up […]
We recently caught up with Mason Read, a computer science undergraduate at UC Irvine who just wrapped up his third consecutive summer internship with Galois. It was a great opportunity for him to share some insights from his experience working on diverse projects, his personal and professional growth during his time with us, and his […]
One of Galois’s core principles is “Seek joy at work.” While that may sound a little fuzzy, we define this principle as follows: “Work should be a source of deep satisfaction and meaning, a place where we can freely offer our skills and talents to the mutual benefit of Galois and ourselves.” One of the […]
In June 2023, Galois officially became 100% employee-owned—realizing a vision 10 years in the making. This significant milestone was made possible through our Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), introduced in 2013 after Galois’s founder John Launchbury learned of ESOPs’ benefits during his “Blue Sky”[1] time, then introduced it to Galois as part of his long […]
Galois is full of fascinating people with remarkable stories. In addition to being research engineers building tools for space exploration, mathematicians writing proofs to secure some of the world’s most valuable data, and spreadsheet wizards managing complex projects, we are musicians and artists, mountaineers and spelunkers, philosophers and flower farmers. Every once in a while, […]
This week, Galwegians from across the country gathered to celebrate the grand opening of our new office in Minneapolis. The festivities included an open house of the new office space; a walking tour of the city; a double feature of Wallace and Gromit: The Wrong Trousers and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon at the Parkway Theater […]
While most engineers and scientists join Galois to be part of a company that conducts groundbreaking research, for our unique culture of collaboration, or for the great benefits and work-life balance, there’s a lesser-known but equally exciting perk of working at Galois: participating in the creation of spinouts. Throughout my time as a research engineer […]
Though known as a technology research firm, Galois values creating more than just great research. Throughout our history, our scientists and engineers have developed new technologies, built new tools, and made discoveries that provoke a “tail” of downstream opportunity. Over and over again, rather than becoming a software company focused on those downstream opportunities, we […]
We take pride in personally connecting with all interested partners, collaborators and potential clients. Please email us with a brief description of how you would like to be connected with Galois and we will do our best to respond within one business day.
