About The Position

The Electronic Warfare (EW) Systems group is a multi-disciplinary team that delivers innovative electronic warfare capabilities to address some of the Nation’s most pressing challenges. We specialize in electronic warfare systems test and evaluation, communications electronic attack (EA), threat representation and analysis, and RF hardware development and analysis. We are a dedicated team of engineers and scientists who work with Government and Industry and who are passionate about providing advanced RF capabilities to protect U.S. citizens, service members, and allies. As an Electronic Warfare RF Simulation Analyst, you will work independently and as a member of a highly collaborative team to represent threat sensors for evolving and established threats in multiple simulation programs. You will serve as subject matter authority and share technical insight to support DoD programs performing survivability studies using these threat systems. You will also establish relationships and effectively interact with teams, management, external sponsors, and across organizational boundaries.

Requirements

Have a Bachelor's degree in a technical field such as engineering, mathematics, computer science, physics, or a closely related area or equivalent combination of education and experience.
Have at least one year of relevant experience with commercial or military RF sensors, electronic warfare systems, or related activities.
Have excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to convey sophisticated technical topics clearly to multi-disciplinary audiences.
Are able to obtain an Interim Secret level security clearance by your start date and can ultimately obtain a Top Secret level clearance. If selected, you will be subject to a government security clearance investigation and must meet the requirements for access to classified information. Eligibility requirements include U.S. citizenship.
