Job Overview

Northrop Grumman Aeronautics Systems has an opening for a Principal/ Sr. Principal Systems Engineer - Electromagnetic Environmental Effects (E3) to join our team of qualified, diverse individuals. The position will be located in Melbourne, Florida.

Job Expectations
  • All programs have E3 requirements, so an E3 engineer must be capable of writing, interpreting, allocating, tailoring and flowing down E3 requirements to all design levels.
  • E3 engineers interact across all phases of a program, so strong technical communication skills and the ability to explain complex technical issues to audiences unfamiliar with E3 are necessary.
  • E3 engineers need to present at design reviews to internal and external customers regarding E3 issues.
  • Write E3 design guidelines, develop models, and perform analyses on components, subsystems and systems using EMI principles.
  • Design ground systems, chassis and harness shielding, EMI filters, and select and lay out interface circuitry for EMC.
  • Prepare and review E3 test procedures, E3 test reports, E3 analyses, E3 control plans, and participate in cross-discipline design reviews for EMC.
  • Design E3 test procedures and participate in E3 testing per governmental and non-governmental standards (e.g., MIL-STD 461, MIL-STD 464, DO-160).
  • Mentor less experienced E3 engineers and contribute to E3 engineering capability across Northrop Grumman.
  • Contribute to knowledge, processes, documentation, and protocols for E3 engineering across Sectors and Enterprises.

We offer flexible work arrangements, a 9/80 schedule with every other Friday off, learning opportunities, exposure to diverse projects and a collaborative team environment.

Basic Qualifications
  • Principal Systems Engineer:
    Bachelor’s degree in a STEM discipline and 5 years of experience, OR Master’s degree in a STEM discipline and 3 years of experience, OR PhD in a STEM discipline and 1 year of experience.

    Bachelor’s degree in a STEM discipline and 8 years of experience, OR Master’s degree in a STEM discipline and 6 years of experience, OR Doctorate in a STEM discipline and 4 years of experience.
  • Active DoD Secret clearance or higher (background investigation within last 6 years or currently enrolled in Continuous Evaluation).
  • Ability to obtain and maintain Special Access Program (SAP) clearance.
  • Experience with MIL-STD-464 or MIL-STD-461.
  • 2 years of experience in RF, test, or design engineering.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, with a specialty in Electromagnetics, RF, or analog circuitry.
  • Experience with defense and aerospace industry practices and programmatic skills (BOE, RFP, ROM, CAM, WBS, risk assessments for E3 compliance).
  • Extensive design experience with EMI filters, circuit layout and analysis for E3, shielding, lightning protection, cable and harnessing design.
  • Working knowledge of modeling and simulation of E3 using commercially available software is a plus.
  • Experience with design for TEMPEST and EMI/EMC compliance and system-level integration (bonding, grounding, shielding, filtering, transient suppression).
