Lyten seeks an experienced and motivated Staff RF Engineer to leverage physics and engineering knowledge to innovate solutions to national-level challenges, driving these solutions from concept to final product utilizing novel meta-surfaces and meta-material structures. Requires experience in designing, producing and evaluating cutting-edge advanced coatings. The selected candidate will invent new concepts, create theoretical models, perform cutting edge research to fabricate and characterize material needed to shape coating technologies, develop prototypes, and collect and present data to support proofs of concept.

• Design, produce and evaluate cutting-edge advanced coatings.
• Invent new concepts, create theoretical models, perform cutting-edge research to fabricate and characterize material needed to shape coating technologies.
• Develop prototypes and collect and present data to support proofs of concept.
• Leverage commercial computational tools to build simulations and develop numerical solutions for problems pertaining to the interaction of electromagnetic fields with novel meta-surfaces and metamaterial structures with applications ranging from radio-wave through optical frequencies.
• Extend established design principles and optimization procedures into application domains with poorly defined behaviors or with extreme parameters that challenge the state of the art.
• Lead research efforts through the establishment of collaborative and diverse teams, present results in an effective and timely fashion, and mentor early career staff.
• Work closely with Lyten team members to engage potential sponsors for the purpose of incubating new programs.

• You understand and can describe electromagnetic concepts and theories.
• You understand RF measurements.
• You can work in a multi-disciplinary team.
• You have worked with electronic materials.
• You have ever collected diverse sets of material property data to tailor a product for a specific purpose.

• You have ever worked in an anechoic chamber or measured the RF characteristics of materials.
• You have experience with meta materials and/or graphene.
• You understand Maxwell’s equations and can explain their importance and relevance to others.
• You have any professional experience in RCS, LO technology, RF, Computational Electromagnetics (CEM) simulations, or electromagnetics. We will ask you about all of these in your interview.

• Doctorate degree in a relevant field (e.g., business, engineering, sciences) AND 3+ years of experience in a relevant field leading or making significant contributions to multidisciplinary projects where scope requires reliance on the technical experience of other team members OR Master’s degree in a relevant field (e.g., business, engineering, sciences) AND 5+ years of experience in a relevant field leading or making significant contributions to multidisciplinary projects where scope requires reliance on the technical experience of other…
