Systems Engineer, Electronics Engineer, Test Engineer, Electrical Engineering
Would you like to use your engineering skills to work on technologies that push the boundaries of what is possible? Are you excited by RF systems, electromagnetics, antennas, electronics, modeling and simulation, or hands‑on experimentation? Do you enjoy solving difficult technical problems where the answer isn't already known?
If you're graduating with a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Applied Math, Physics, or a related technical field and want to turn what you've learned in school into real-world engineering solutions, we'd love to have you join our team.
Our team develops, models, builds, and tests advanced technologies to solve some of the nation's most challenging defense problems. Our work spans RF engineering, electronic warfare (EW), radar, high‑power microwave (HPM), modeling and simulation, hardware development, experimentation, and systems engineering.
You'll join a multidisciplinary team of engineers and scientists who combine deep technical expertise with curiosity and creativity to understand complex systems and develop new ways to protect the United States, our military, and our allies from emerging air and missile threats. You'll have opportunities to learn from experienced technical experts while quickly taking ownership of meaningful engineering problems of your own.
The work is varied: you might build a model to predict how an RF system will perform, design or test hardware in the laboratory, develop a new waveform, analyze data from an experiment, or work with engineers from several disciplines to determine how a new technology could perform as part of a larger defense system.
We're looking for people with strong engineering fundamentals, intellectual curiosity, and the desire to keep learning. We'll help you develop the specialized knowledge needed to become an expert in this field.
We strive to foster an environment built around collaboration, curiosity, and commitment to our mission. Our team values of Courageous Curiosity, Enthusiastic Empathy, and Inspired Improvement reflect how we approach both our technical work and how we work together.
Your primary responsibilities could include:- Perform RF system analysis, including link budgets, propagation effects, and system performance assessments
- Use modeling, simulation, experimentation, and data analysis to understand how RF and other advanced technologies perform in realistic environments
- Propose, analyze, and test new RF concepts, including novel waveforms, hardware designs, antennas, and system architectures
- Design and conduct laboratory experiments, collect and analyze data, and use the results to improve system concepts
- Develop software and analysis tools to model RF systems, automate testing, control laboratory equipment, or analyze experimental data
- Work alongside systems engineers, sensor experts, software developers, physicists, and other specialists to understand how technologies work together as part of a larger system
- Contribute to end-to-end mission modeling, technical concept development, requirements definition, and system testing
- Design, simulate, build, and test analog and RF circuits, amplifiers, antennas, and other hardware
- Communicate your analysis, results, and recommendations to teammates, technical leaders, and the government
You meet our minimum qualifications for the job if you...
- Have, or will soon complete, a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Applied Math, Physics, or a related technical field
- Have experience programming in a language such as MATLAB, Python, C, C++, Java, or similar
- Have a strong foundation in engineering, mathematics, physics, or related technical concepts
- Enjoy solving analytical problems and figuring out how complex…
