RF/Radar Engineer
About The Position
We are seeking radar engineers focused on the design and performance of advanced radar systems. This role centers on end-to-end radar design - defining radar performance across challenging operational environments through architecture development, performance analysis, algorithm and waveform design, and hardware prototyping. You will work on next-generation radar capabilities, including distributed aperture architectures. This is a hands-on technical role where analytical design decisions are translated into radar systems and their measured performance. This role will shape the technical direction of a first-of-its-kind distributed aperture radar capability.
Requirements
- Bachelor's + 3-8 years of relevant experience
- Active Secret clearance required (with eligibility for Top Secret/SCI)
- Demonstrated ability to communicate complex technical concepts clearly.
- Experience executing technical work independently with limited oversight.
- Ability to operate effectively in fast-paced, mission-driven programs.
Responsibilities
- Design and mature radar system architectures, including performance analysis, algorithm and waveform development, vulnerability assessment, and support to hardware prototypes.
- Shape radar design by developing waveforms and novel algorithms that evolve typical multifunction radar capabilities (e.g. acquisition, track, discrimination, EP, etc.) beyond the typical monostatic aperture topology.
- Perform radar and RF modeling and simulation to support architecture trade studies and validate system performance.
- Evaluate radar performance across operational scenarios, including cluttered and contested environments.
- Conduct simulation and laboratory testing and data collection on radar subsystems and prototype hardware.
- Analyze test and simulation results to assess performance against requirements and drive design improvements.
- Translate analytical results into concrete system-level design improvements.
- Develop technical documentation and design artifacts required to demonstrate progress and support program milestones.
- Work with program leadership to ensure technical execution remains aligned with cost, schedule, and performance constraints.
- Prepare and present technical briefings for government stakeholders, design reviews, and program milestones.
- Represent radar design and performance perspectives in technical interchange meetings and design reviews.
