We design and develop state-of-the-art satellites and satellite payloads, novel concepts for resilient space architectures, and the Nation's most sensitive radars, optics, and passive RF systems. The group also provides engineering rigor and experience to some of the most critical National Security programs through Laboratory-wide collaboration and acts in an advisory capacity to the U.S. Government. Recently we have prototyped electronic systems and effects, conducted hardware-in-the-loop testing of tactically relevant payloads with surrogate threat systems, developed RF subsystems for satellites, and analyzed spacecraft mission dynamics, environments, and resiliency. Job Description Group 94, Electronics for Contested Space, is seeking an electrical engineer and/or physicist to design, build, and test advanced technology for electronic, electromagnetic, and RF systems. The successful candidate will contribute to multi-disciplinary teams executing advanced research and developing systems critical to National Security. Experienced engineers with strong interest in electromagnetics, remote sensing, RF / antenna design, electronic warfare, and RF applications are strongly encouraged to apply. Activities may include computational analysis, hardware development, system integration, field data collection, data analysis, documentation and reporting, and independent problem-solving. Occasional travel to support field exercises, presentations to sponsors and the community, and other events may be required. Requirements Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related technical field with directly relevant experience A technical degree and at least 3 years of relevant experience will also be considered Significant professional or academic experience in at least two of the following areas: Electromagnetic and RF engineering (system and/or design level) Radar systems: including radar system design, evaluation and analysis Remote sensing: passive/active RF and optical systems analysis, simulation, high-level design Electromagnetic Spectrum Operations and
