E3 includes the following environments:
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI), Lightning, High Intensity Radiated Fields (HIRF), Precipitation Static, Nuclear Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP), among others.

Primary job responsibilities will include:

• Perform complicated trade studies, modeling, simulation and other forms of analysis to predict component, interconnects and system performance and to optimize design for E3 performance
• Work (under minimal direction) to achieve Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) of electronics, wiring, and structure
• Interface with manufacturing for complex E3 aspects of the designs; coordinate with suppliers to assure compatibility at the system level; report achievements and issues to program management and customers
• Support project management by coordinating development of work statements, budgets, schedules, and other required inputs and conducting appropriate reviews

Other job responsibilities may include:

• Develop and implement Test Automation for aircraft modifications
• Apply EMI engineering technology experience to document and solve complex problems
• Perform trade studies, modeling, simulation, and other forms of analyses to predict component, interconnects, and system performance and to optimize design
• Apply conversion, correction, and antenna factors to EMI/EMC analyses and tests
• Work on a cross-functional support team and communicate clearly in various review boards both internally & externally
• Process engineering data into meaningful tables and graphs for inclusion into reports

This position requires the ability to obtain a U.S. Security Clearance for which the U.S. Government requires U.S. Citizenship. An interim and/or final U.S. Secret Clearance Post-Start is required.
