About The Position

BAE Systems' Space & Mission Systems team is seeking an experienced hardware engineer to design next-generation technology for aerospace and defense applications. This role involves working on advanced RF, LiDAR, antenna, and electronic systems for mission-critical platforms across air, land, sea, and space. The engineer will manage hardware development from concept and circuit design through simulation, prototype development, laboratory testing, environmental qualification, and integration. The position requires collaboration with systems, PCB, software, and other engineering disciplines, focusing on analog, digital, mixed-signal, FPGA, power, and control circuitry. The Electrical & Electronic Solutions team develops innovative technologies to enhance warfighters' capabilities in detection, identification, communication, and response to evolving threats. The Engineering, Science and Analysis (ESA) Strategic Capabilities Unit fosters a collaborative, cross-functional environment committed to innovation, integrity, continuous learning, and strong execution.
