Summary: The Electronic Warfare (EW) Test and Evaluation (T&E) Researcher will research the testing of EW and Avionics Systems to assist with the development of Hardware-in-the-Loop (HITL) test systems.
Details:
The Electronic Warfare (EW) Test and Evaluation (T&E) Researcher will research the testing of EW and Avionics Systems to assist with the development of Hardware-in-the-Loop (HITL) test systems. These HITL test systems provide high fidelity simulation and stimulation of real-time Electro-Optical/Infrared (EO/IR), Radio Frequency (RF) and avionics environments for testing aircraft systems. These test environments incorporate EW engagement models, use of government and industry test standards, open standards definition, and usage of automated test frameworks.RF/Radar Systems Engineers work with a team to perform advanced system and algorithm development using established systems engineering approaches. Based on detailed trade studies and requirements analyses, radar systems engineers develop solutions to satisfy system requirements and perform functions related to all aspects of radar system design.  These functions include the development of the complete architectural design of radar systems, investigation and development of new algorithms to advance key sensor capabilities by leveraging signal processing techniques and novel waveform development, development of detailed simulations of algorithms and systems for design verification or to facilitate operational software development, the design of sensor modes that maximize sensor performance, the collection and analysis of data from laboratory or flight tests, and formal verification that the final design solution meet all system requirements.

• Conduct detailed RF subsystem and system design studies, testing plans, and analysis of requirements into detailed performance design criteria in conjunction with the technical lead and direct sponsor engagement
• Design and build templates to assist SMEs in providing critical system information
• Conduct product or system design synthesis translating requirements into physical architectures for RF subsystems and systems of moderate complexity
• Analyze RF subsystem and system functionality as defined by requirements
• Define/refine internal and external interfaces for RF subsystems and systems
• Develop technical reports and diagrams detailing design description or performance as defined by requirements

• Lead technical teams in the development of innovative methods and systems for creating dense, complex RF threat environments for EW Hardware-in-the-Loop (HITL) test systems
• Lead technical teams in the development and integration of RF threat environments, development of innovative RF signal capture, and recording/analysis with EW HITL systems and environments
• Design and debug of RF Hardware and RF subsystems
• Support the design, integration, debug and test of complex systems
• Support program leads in technical presentations (design reviews, test readiness reviews, etc.)
• Support RF test events for HITL, chamber, and flight testing

• Experience with Electronic Warfare and RF systems
• Experience with RF analog and digital signal analysis
• Experience leading technical teams

• Active Secret Clearance
• Experience with radar signal simulation
• Experience with Electronic Warfare Integrated Reprogramming (EWIR) database
• Experience with EW Test and Evaluation in a lab environment
• Experience with digital signal processing
• Experience in RWR and/or EA system design, operation, and T&E
• Experience in RF Environment modelling and simulation

10% - 25% travelDue to our research contracts with the U.S. federal government, candidates for this position must be U.S. Citizens.Candidates must be able to obtain and maintain an active security clearance.
