High‑Powered Microwave Systems Engineer

As a Systems Engineer on our team, you’ll have the chance to deliver products and services to government clients in the directed energy field. You will work on complex technical problems, provide highly innovative solutions, develop advanced technology ideas, and guide system development into a final product. You will apply knowledge of the systems engineering (SE) discipline across one or more components of the system development lifecycle (SDLC), including concept development, technical planning, requirements development, system analysis, system design, integration, verification, transition, operations, obsolescence, and disposal.

You will participate in program integrated product teams (IPTs) and drive the proper application of SE processes. You will need to demonstrate experience with the SE process for system acquisitions, including SE plans, system engineering technical reviews (SETRs), system certification processes, and specialty engineering activities. You’ll develop your skills in SE, gain experience in rapid acquisitions and fielding systems aboard Navy ships, and grow your skills in directed energy technology, integration, and testing.

Join our team and help turn requirements into accomplishments that drive the future of Navy directed energy programs.
