Senior High Power Radio Frequency Engineer

PostMilitary•King George, VA

21d

About The Position

As a High Power Radio Frequency (HPRF) engineer, you understand the power behind complex systems. That knowledge is key when it comes to conceptualizing, designing, and developing advanced HPRF systems for the warfighter. We’re looking for an engineer who can use their skills to help advance the state -of -the -art for non -lethal systems to be used within the Fleet. Our team develops DE systems for the Navy and in support of other Services. That’s why we need you, a HPRF engineer, with a background in RF, High Voltage, and other DE technologies, to help us design and develop next generation systems. You’ll be involved in all aspects of product and system development life cycles from conception to delivery to an end -user. You’ll make a direct impact by leading engineering initiatives that will add alternative options to warfighters means to dress real -world missions. We’ll look to you to share your engineering expertise through leadership and mentoring junior staff. This is a chance to use your experience -based knowledge in HPRF while broadening your skillset into areas like software development, operational planning, and prototype development. Join us and take on exciting challenges in the DoD.
