The Naval Radar Systems Team is looking for a SPY‑6(V)4 Backfit Chief Engineer (CE). The SPY‑6(V)4 radar system is a variant of the Navy’s next generation SPY‑6 radar that is a key sensor on the FLT IIA ships (US Navy's Arleigh Burke‑class destroyer). This (V)4 variant is part of the SPY‑6 Family of Radars (FoRs) being produced by Raytheon on the SPY‑6 Hardware Production & Sustainment contract.
