Responsibilities:
- Understand the customer’s functional/operational needs and participate in requirements decomposition, overseeing proper allocation of technical elements
- Support system integration, test, design verification, fault identification, failure resolution, and/or acceptance of production hardware
- Provide engineering support to lab test and qualification activities, providing engineering oversight to the test, evaluation, and analysis of issues pertaining to system hardware and firmware functionality and performance
- Provide support for situations including (but not limited to) customer inquiries, field failures, product obsolescence, system enhancements, new product development, integration and transition to production
- Evaluate and assess the performance of developmental electronic warfare systems, including signal processing subsystems
- Able to balance multiple, varying commitments, exercising discretion and with moderately low direct oversight
- Support occasional business travel (20% or less)
Required Qualifications:
- Bachelor's degree in Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics (STEM), such as Computer or Electrical Engineering, obtained prior to start
- Academic or extracurricular experience with radio, comms, or radar systems design, operation, analysis, or simulation
- Experience communicating and presenting system design details and/or system test results to stakeholders
- Experience analyzing, developing and implementing solutions to complex technical problems in conditions of moderate uncertainty
- The ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. government issued security clearance is required
- U.S. citizenship is required, as only U.S. citizens are eligible for a security clearance
- Active and existing security clearance required after day 1
Preferred Qualifications:
- Exposure to RF system design, digital and/or analog signal processing, waveform and signal modulation analysis, and/or algorithm implementation and testing
- Experience with development, implementation, and test of RF jamming algorithms
- Experience using MATLAB, PathWave ADS, and/or PathWave EMPro for simulation and design of RF systems
- Exposure to/experience with C/C++ or Python programming languages
- RF receiver/exciter product design, development, and/or test experience in the Electronic Attack (i.e. signals jamming) sub-domain of EW
- Understanding of embedded systems and embedded programming. Experience with design/implementation of embedded systems on FPGA hardware
- Familiarity with Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) principles and tools (eg Cameo or similar)
- Experience with Agile development methodologies and tools (e.g. Jira, Confluence)
- Experience using DOORS for requirements management
