Sr. Radar Systems Engineer Jobs

Senior Radar System Engineer

Are you eager to apply your expertise in radar systems, physics, modeling and simulation, and/or data science to high impact defense challenges, and thrive in a collaborative, innovative environment? If so, we are looking for someone like you to join our team  are seeking Senior Radar System Engineers with at least 5 years of experience to help field the next generation of Advanced Surface Navy sensors and Land-based Cruise Missile Defense sensor networks, defending against some of the world's most challenging threats.

Why Join Us

• Mission-Driven Impact:
  Contribute directly to the development and fielding of next-generation Navy Radar/EO/IR, electronic-warfare, and land-based cruise-missile-defense sensor networks that protect service members against the world's toughest threats.
• Cutting-Edge Innovation:
  Work with physics-based modeling and simulation (M&S), advanced data-analysis, and machine-learning techniques to create innovative sensor-performance tools.
• Collaborative Culture:
  Join a highly motivated, interdisciplinary team of sensor engineers, RF-propagation and meteorology specialists, software developers, combat-system engineers, and physicists-all focused on solving complex, mission-critical problems.

Core Responsibilities

• Analyze live tactical-sensor data with a cross-disciplinary team to deliver mission-driven solutions.
• Identify and solve problems that impact mission requirements.
• Build and apply M&S tools, data-analysis platforms, and machine-learning algorithms to large data sets; develop novel algorithms that solve real-world problems.
• Develop and refine physics-based simulations that provide new insight into radar, EO/IR, and electronic-warfare system performance in realistic operational environments.
• Develop novel instrumentation and algorithms for understanding RF propagation effects by directly measuring, recording, and analyzing RF signal measurements.
• Identify emergent phenomenology, troubleshoot problems affecting sensor performance, and work with a broad network of experts-including prime contractors, government labs, RF-propagation and meteorology specialists, software developers, combat-system engineers, and physicists-to deliver integrated solutions.
• Apply machine learning, signal processing, and data science techniques to unprecedented real-world challenges.
• Advance the state of the art in our core technology areas: signal processing, electromagnetics, software development, and boundary-layer meteorology.

Qualifications You meet our minimum qualifications for the job if you have...

• A BS in Electrical Engineering, Physics, or equivalent STEM technical discipline, with some sensor systems engineering experience.
• At least 5 years of engineering-related experience related to sensing.
• Strong understanding of radar systems, and/or physics-based phenomena affecting radar or communications systems.
• Some familiarity with Python, MATLAB, or equivalent tools, and have had some exposure to modern development process (git, Git Lab, Jira, or equivalent).
• Good interpersonal and communication skills.
• Willingness to travel up to 5% of the time as needed.
• Are able to obtain an Interim Secret level security clearance by your start date and can ultimately obtain a Top Secret/SCI level clearance. If selected, you will be subject to a government security clearance investigation and must meet the requirements for access to classified information. Eligibility requirements include U.S. citizenship.

You'll go above and beyond our minimum requirements if you...

• Have a MS or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Physics, or equivalent STEM technical discipline, and/or additional years of relevant experience.
• Experience with advanced DoW sensors and combat systems, particularly in the areas described above.
• Have experience leading technical teams.
• Have an existing Top Secret clearance.
