Overview

Do you want a Superpower in the "wizardry" of System Design? Our world-class Lansdale Systems Design team needs your skills! Our RF Systems Design Engineer role will apply broad technical knowledge and skills in various scientific/technical disciplines to the design, analysis, planning, and development of major subsystems and small-scale systems. Systems are primarily in the RF Electronic Warfare (EW) business area that includes Radar Warning (RW), Situational Awareness, Interferometry/Direction Finding (DF), Electronic Attack (EA), as well as Self-Protect RF Counter Measures (RFCM) including on-/off-board systems.

The successful candidate must have a propensity to create designs, perform simulations, allocate/derive requirements, and/or generate circuit analysis for system-level specifications or RF components based on performance, schedule, cost, reliability, and manufacturability goals. This could include any combination of technical research, test, documentation, and presentation. This role works closely with other engineering disciplines and provides technical insight to ensure that designs achieve "best value" goals of meeting performance and life cycle requirements within allocated budget and schedule constraints.

The Systems Engineer works closely with other engineering disciplines and provides technical insight and leadership to ensure that designs achieve "best value" goals of meeting performance and life cycle requirements within allocated budget and schedule constraints. This will involve:

Define top-level system architectures using functional elements of a system; RF amplification, antenna, power, mechanical, digital/analog, I/O, SW/FW
Requirements development/management including derivation/decomposition
Generate block/flow diagrams, interconnection drawings (ICDs), wire lists
Conduct trade analysis, architectural studies, and performance modeling
Generate models or simulations aiding in predicted performance for compliance
Recommend, plan, lead, review, and identify risks for R&D efforts
Integrate and test modules or subsystems in various laboratory or field environments
Propose technical (re-) solutions and their impact on cost, schedule and risk
Generate technical content for submission and/or briefing to internal/external stakeholders
