** Description
* * At Northrop Grumman, our employees have incredible opportunities to work on revolutionary systems that impact people's lives around the world today, and for generations to come. Our pioneering and inventive spirit has enabled us to be at the forefront of many technological advancements in our nation's history - from the first flight across the Atlantic Ocean, to stealth bombers, to landing on the moon.

We look for people who have bold new ideas, courage and a pioneering spirit to join forces to invent the future, and have fun along the way. Our culture thrives on intellectual curiosity, cognitive diversity and bringing your whole self to work — and we have an insatiable drive to do what others think is impossible. Our employees are not only part of history, they're making history.

Northrop Grumman Fellows are recognized experts who tackle the hardest technical problems and ensure we retain the hard-won insights needed to perform complex missions successfully. They define what is possible in our most critical capability areas while identifying and cultivating the people, processes, and tools required for enduring technical advantage. Fellows are deployed against our most important programs and captures, aligned to top business priorities, and advance our products and solutions to meet customers’ missions every day.  

Northrop Grumman Space Systems is seeking an NG Fellow 1 – Tracking and Discrimination to support multiple critical and strategic programs. This position is in Chandler, Arizona and reports to the GNC/SW director.

The ideal candidate will set and drive strategy for a broad set of sensing, hypersonic tracking, target-state estimation, sensor fusion, target discrimination, and mission-algorithm initiatives and will be empowered to shape technical direction across radar and infrared sensor exploitation; low-latency, real-time track formation and maintenance; multi-sensor fusion; object classification; countermeasure rejection; and embedded or high-performance software implementation. The Fellow is expected to provide scientific, technical, and intellectual leadership that materially improves capture success and market-share growth in alignment with the LED long-range strategic plan.  

This leader must have a strong grasp of campaign execution and networking strategy and possess the skills, drive, and judgment to successfully interface with senior leaders, chief engineers, program teams, and customer stakeholders. The role supports the full life cycle of systems engineering and verification activities associated with tracking and discrimination and is expected to mature advanced sensor-processing, target-state estimation, sensor-fusion, and threat-discrimination concepts into robust software and algorithm solutions that support missile-defense and advanced weapon-system mission objectives.

** Key Responsibilities
**** Strategic & Technical Leadership
*** Serve as a sector-level technical authority for tracking, hypersonic tracking, target-state estimation, sensor fusion, and discrimination algorithms supporting missile defense, launch vehicle, interceptor, and related weapon-system applications.
