- Define and own the system architecture for EW and radar-enabled systems from concept through integration, test, and delivery.
- Translate mission and vehicle-level performance requirements into system-level requirements
- Lead trade studies to balance EW and radar capability, detection/mitigation techniques, performance, and vehicle constraints (size, weight, power, cooling, EMI)
- Architect software-defined EW and radar solutions, specifying critical HW/SW partitioning, reconfigurability, and processing pipelines
- Provide technical leadership for electronics design, RF front-end, radar receiver/transmitter considerations, digitizers, signal processing chains, and real-time firmware implementation
Qualifications
Required Qualifications
- Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering (with a focus in Electrical, Mechanical or Aeronautical), Computer Science, Data Science, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry or non-US equivalent qualifications directly related to the work statement
- 14+ years of work-related experience with a bachelor’s degree or 12+ years of work-related experience with a masters or 9+ years of work-related experience with a PhD
- 10+ years of professional experience in RF systems for SIGNIT, Electronic Warfare, Information Operations or Cyber
