SR RF Systems Engineer

KBR•Chantilly, VA

44d•Onsite

About The Position

This role involves providing mission planning and requirements development using an interdisciplinary approach. The engineer will encompass the entire technical effort to evolve and verify an integrated and total life-cycle balanced set of system, people, and process solutions that satisfy customer needs in support of system acquisitions. This includes maritime, ground, air, space-based, and RF-enabled collection systems. The position requires the ability to model, simulate, and analyze systems using STK for mission planning, performance prediction, and scenario analysis. The engineer will develop technical information to support government program management decision-making, assist in managing system configuration, and translate system definitions into work breakdown structures. Additionally, the role involves developing CONOPS for technical collection operations and management, including RF, sensor, or communications-based mission capabilities, and overseeing contractor development of technical collection systems, RF components, and supporting software.
