Systems Engineer II - Signal Processing (Onsite)
About The Position
RTX is hiring an entry-level Systems Engineer II, Signal Processing, to collaborate in the design, development, prototyping, integration, testing, and performance assessment of radar frequency (RF) or Electro-Optical/Infrared (EO/IR) algorithms and models. These algorithms support activities such as calibration and de-noising of raw sensor data; detecting, acquiring, tracking, and classifying objects of interest; and sensor fusion. The role is based primarily onsite in Tucson, Arizona. The engineer will participate in engineering lab environments to test, verify, and validate RF or EO/IR models and signal-processing algorithm performance against requirements. They will integrate algorithms into tactical system hardware and software, evaluate functionality and impact, develop documentation, execute plans, analyze data, verify requirements, and communicate results to leadership and stakeholders. An active and transferable U.S. government-issued security clearance is required prior to the start date, and the candidate must be a U.S. citizen. The posting also states that the ability to obtain an interim U.S. government-issued security clearance is required prior to the start date.
