Raytheon's Field Engineering team is seeking highly skilled Field Engineers with hands-on AEGIS system experience to support the AEGIS Program. This position serves as a critical interface between Raytheon, the U.S. Navy, other defense contractors, and U.S. Government stakeholders.

Field Engineers will be responsible for the installation, integration, testing, operation, maintenance, repair, and modification of complex radar and fire control systems, specifically all variants of the AEGIS SPY-1 Radar Transmitter and the MK 99 Fire Control System (FCS). Work is performed in support of U.S. Navy warships, the broader AEGIS Fleet, and Foreign Military Sales (FMS) customers around the world.

This position is primarily located in Norfolk, VA or San Diego, CA. Candidates must reside within a 50-mile radius of the Norfolk or San Diego shipyards to ensure reasonable commuting distance. While this position is classified as remote, it requires extensive travel to customer sites, including Navy installations and Raytheon facilities. Employees will primarily perform field service work onsite and will only be home-based when assignments are near their residence.

A dedicated home office is not provided, as the role involves continuous travel and onsite support.

What You Will Do
* Travel to various Naval shipyards, both CONUS and OCONUS, as required to support ORDALT installations and technical assistance efforts.
* Accept temporary assignments that involve at-sea support aboard U.S. Navy ships in support of AEGIS systems.
* Operate, maintain, align, troubleshoot, and repair all variants of the SPY-1 Radar Transmitter Equipment and MK99 Fire Control Systems (FCS) aboard U.S. Navy Aegis-class destroyers, cruisers, land-based sites, or other designated locations, using state-of-the-art test equipment and operational readiness test systems.
* Participate in the planning and execution phases of shipboard equipment installations.
* Analyze equipment failures to determine root causes and implement appropriate corrective actions.
* Perform radar system modifications, including ordnance alterations (ORDALTs) and change incorporation notices (CINs).
* Conduct intricate backplane and chassis wiring modifications, as well as mechanical modifications to SPY radar and FCS hardware.
* Prepare and submit detailed reports outlining equipment discrepancies along with recommended solutions.
* Provide guidance and hands-on training to Navy technicians across all aspects of the SPY radar and MK99 FCS.
* Develop and implement preventive maintenance programs, while maintaining accurate performance and maintenance records for supported systems.
* Extensive travel, including CONUS, OCONUS, and at-sea assignments.
* Lifting up to 50 lbs, climb ladders, work in confined spaces, and perform physically demanding tasks onboard Navy vessels.

Qualifications You Must Have
* Typically requires a Bachelor’s and a minimum of 2 years prior relevant experience, or an Advance Degree in a related field…
