About The Position

BAE Systems' Precision Strike (PS) Business Area has immediate openings for junior level Systems Engineers for the Precision Guidance and Sensing Solutions (PGSS) Product Line specializing in RF Seeker development IRADs and programs. Our employees work on the world’s most advanced electronics – from GPS devices for munitions and platforms to multi-function seekers that enable detecting threats for precision strike. BAE Systems is seeking Huntsville, AL-based junior-level Systems Engineers to join a growing team developing cutting-edge capabilities in multimodal/multifunction seekers. You will serve as a technical contributor on our integrated product team in the Precision Guidance and Sensing Solutions (PGSS) product line. As a junior-level contributor, you will be mentored as part of a team responsible for deeply impactful contributions to next generation military autonomy. Members on this development team drive collaborative value creation that is greater than the sum of their individual contributions. You will have the opportunity to participate in efforts across the full spectrum of technology maturation ranging from systems requirements generation, system design, modeling & simulation, integration & test, and support to production. You will work with other engineering staff & team leaders to grow our knowledge and capabilities through engineering changes, lessons learned, insights, Agile retrospectives and product/process improvements in Radar seeker technology. The successful candidate will have had exposure to Radar and RF concepts and systems and have a strong math aptitude. The candidate should also be comfortable in a lab environment where hands on testing of prototype hardware and software is conducted in support of Radar / RF based systems. Because this role will periodically support a combination of collaborative/in-person and independent work, it will take the form of a hybrid work format, with time split between working onsite and remotely, pending Supervisor review and approval.
