Analyze, characterize, and optimize RF antennas, filters, amplifiers, and transceivers using spectrum analyzers, vector network analyzers (VNA), signal generators, oscilloscopes, and other laboratory instrumentation.
Perform component-level circuit board analysis and troubleshooting, identifying failed components, determining root causes, and validating corrective actions.
Design and integrate RF subsystems, miniature transceivers, embedded sensors, power management circuits, and supporting electronic hardware.
Support new capability development by evaluating engineering requirements, developing hardware prototypes, conducting engineering tests, documenting results, and recommending design improvements.
Support the management and maintenance of an electronics laboratory, including equipment calibration, inventory management, instrumentation maintenance, and laboratory safety.
Develop engineering documentation including electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, assembly instructions, test procedures, and technical reports.
Support system integration, engineering validation, field testing, operational deployment, and sustainment activities.
Collaborate with mechanical engineers, designers, and fabrication specialists to ensure proper electrical and electronic integration, packaging, and manufacturability.
