About The Position

L3Harris Corporation is seeking a Specialist, Integration & Test Engineer to support RF and modem test operations for Communication Systems programs in Brevard County, Florida. The role focuses on RF/IF testing, including approximately 700 MHz IF, development and execution of formal test procedures, and support for Design Verification Test (DVT), Acceptance Test Procedures (ATP), and post-check activities for modem-based systems. The engineer works across functional teams to verify that integrated hardware, software, and networked elements meet performance and reliability requirements.

The position includes developing and maintaining test documentation; configuring and operating RF/IF test equipment; integrating and testing RF receive/transmit components, IF chains, and modem assemblies; testing Ethernet-based interfaces and network data flows; and using scripting or analysis tools to automate test execution and analyze results. It also involves conducting environmental, functional, and performance tests, documenting issues, and participating in or occasionally leading test readiness reviews and technical discussions. Travel up to 10% may be required.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree and a minimum of 4 years of prior relevant experience; or a graduate degree and a minimum of 2 years of prior related experience; or, in lieu of a degree, a minimum of 8 years of prior related experience.
• Active U.S. Secret security clearance.

Nice To Haves

• Experience with secure modem systems and/or COMSEC-related hardware and configurations.
• Prior SATCOM experience.
• Experience with cable design, integration, and test involving RF, IF, Ethernet, and control cabling.
• Experience with Jira or similar issue-tracking, requirements, or test-management tools.
• Experience with Wireshark to capture, inspect, and troubleshoot network traffic and system-level connectivity issues.
• CompTIA Security+ or equivalent security certification.

Responsibilities

• Develop, review, and update test plans, test procedures, test reports, and Requirements Verification Traceability Matrices (RVTM) to ensure requirements coverage for modems and associated RF/IF hardware.
• Author detailed ATP and DVT procedures for modem subsystems and systems, including pre- and post-check activities, regression testing, and troubleshooting steps.
• Configure and operate RF/IF test equipment to test approximately 700 MHz IF and RF paths.
• Integrate and test RF receive/transmit components, IF chains, and modem assemblies, including antennas, modems, frequency converters, LNAs, HPAs, waveguides, media converters, and network devices.
• Configure and test Ethernet-based interfaces, including switches, VLANs, media taps, and UDP/TCP data flows between modems, servers, and networked devices.
• Use MATLAB, Python, and/or Windows PowerShell to automate test execution, capture data, and analyze RF, IF, and network performance metrics quantitatively.
• Execute environmental, functional, and performance tests on electronic, electromechanical, and software-driven systems, and document results and issues for resolution.
• Participate in and occasionally lead test readiness reviews, test working groups, and technical discussions; provide recommendations for testability, producibility, and process improvements.
• Travel up to 10% as required.
