About The Position

At Northrop Grumman, our employees have incredible opportunities to work on revolutionary systems that impact people's lives around the world today, and for generations to come. Our pioneering and inventive spirit has enabled us to be at the forefront of many technological advancements in our nation's history - from the first flight across the Atlantic Ocean, to stealth bombers, to landing on the moon. We look for people who have bold new ideas, courage and a pioneering spirit to join forces to invent the future, and have fun along the way. Our culture thrives on intellectual curiosity, cognitive diversity and bringing your whole self to work — and we have an insatiable drive to do what others think is impossible. Our employees are not only part of history, they're making history. What You’ll Get to Do: Be an integral part of our AESA Subsystem & Product Leadership department, Installed Performance section! The teams within this section specialize in computational electromagnetics, RF antenna modeling in an installed environment, subsystem design and analysis, specialized mechanical design and analysis, as well as material evaluation. Our engineering work supports full life-cycle programs including system design, system integration, hardware design, hardware integration and hands-on build and test. As part of the team, you will be involved with: A diverse and talented team of engineers developing innovative and cost-effective systems that support a broad range of products and business areas across the lifecycle of a program. Installed Performance design, prototyping, testing, and production support of state-of-the-art systems requiring specialty knowledge and skills related to the use of free form modeling, surface analysis, materials, tooling, test fixtures and equipment, and manufacturing processes. Collaboration within a cross-functional Integrated Product Team (IPT); effective and timely communication with peers in adjacent functions, including RF design, systems engineering, thermal analysis, structural analysis, materials engineering, drafting, supply chain management, production engineering, and manufacturing. Organizing and prioritizing tasks in order to accomplish project milestones within schedule and budgetary constraints.
