"Jon possesses the unique set of scientific and technical skills, policy knowledge, and proven leadership experience required to enhance AARO's efforts to research and explain unidentified anomalous phenomena to the Department, Congress, and the American people," said Deputy Secretary of Defense Kathleen Hicks.
As the AARO director, Dr. Kosloski will head DoD's efforts, in coordination with the Intelligence Community, to minimize technical and intelligence surprise by synchronizing scientific, intelligence, and operational detection, identification, attribution, and mitigation of unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP) in the vicinity of national security areas.
Under his leadership, AARO will continue to examine the U.S. government historical record relating to UAP, as well as efforts to declassify and release UAP-related records to the greatest extent possible.
Dr. Jon T. Kosloski serves as the Director of the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO). Prior to that, Dr. Kosloski held technical and leadership positions within the Research Directorate of the National Security Agency (NSA). In that capacity, he led advanced mission-oriented research in the fields of networking and computing, and served as a subject matter expert in the area of Free Space Optics, advising various DoD agencies. In addition to his optics research and crypto-mathematics, Dr. Kosloski invented an advanced language-agnostic search engine and served at the DoD Special Communications Enterprise Office.
Dr. Kosloski received Bachelor’s degrees in Mathematics and Physics from California State University, San Bernardino, and a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from Johns Hopkins University. The focus of his Doctoral research was the invention of novel devices that leverage principles from quantum optics to receive very weak phase-encoded signals. After completing the theoretical analysis of two new optical receiver designs, Dr. Kosloski worked with scientists from the National Institute of Standards and Technology to demonstrate the abilities of his designs to achieve record sensitivities. Dr. Kosloski is also a graduate from NSA’s Cryptanalysis Development Program.
