About The Position

This Hardware Lead position is intended to support our Space Systems business within Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) Systems with a focus on RF Electronics. Space is a booming business where we are seeing a surge of activity to take our RF discriminating technologies and to spacify them. Think military aircraft to satellites. The missions and requirements span all earth orbits from LEO to GEO. The need for RF capabilities in Space is rapidly growing. As a Hardware Lead, the position will own the cost, schedule and technical content within the hardware scope. The position will oversee technical program execution working with other leads (Electrical, Mechanical, Radiation, etc). The role will be responsible for CAMing (Cost Account Management) and Earned Value reporting for the hardware scope. Hardware leads are responsible for jumping in and solving technical problems as they happen and supporting the team along the way. The Hardware Lead will also be heavily involved with integration efforts as hardware arrives. The Hardware Lead role will not be a people manager, but they will be expected to provide some feedback on the team for performance. This position reports to Space Systems Hardware Engineering management and will be in the same department as the other Hardware Engineers working on the same programs. The role will be part of a diverse, enthusiastic and highly productive team, where each employee has the opportunity to grow their skills and work on challenging projects.
