Job Summary

The candidate must be proficient in system architecting of both receivers and transmitters across the VLF to Ka frequency bands. This includes a strong understanding of the tradeoffs between noise figure and intermodulation performance, and how these factors affect instantaneous and spur-free dynamic range.

The ideal candidate will have experience collaborating with multiple functional groups - including Mechanical, Firmware, Software, and Test - to derive and decompose customer- and module-level requirements.

This role also requires the ability to lead a multi-disciplinary team through the integration, verification, and validation of these systems.

Design, develop, analyze, document and support testing of products, systems or subsystems
Ability to complete a technical project independently
Mentor and coach other engineers.
Review customer specifications and requirements, and develop designs to best support them, including cost as a key design variable
Ability to lead major problem resolution efforts and support regaining or attaining customer partner status.
Be a key member of the new business capture team.
Provide budget, cost and schedule input for design assignments
Document component and subsystem specifications and material requirements
Analyze designs as necessary. Responsible for higher-level product line architecture, and providing guidance and oversight to multiple development teams working on different products or technologies to ensure the technologies interoperate or connect to each other appropriately.
Attend appropriate engineering, customer or business meetings
Actively support pursuit of new business by developing and presenting new concepts, technologies or applications as part of Business Development and Program Management team.
Develop trusted engineering contacts with the customer. Become a part of the customer’s design team, looking out for their best interests
Specify and evaluate supplier components, subsystems and services
Support the program design to cost and design for manufacture requirements
Develop prototypes to retire key development risks
Communicate clearly (written and oral) with manufacturing, supply chain, program management and the customer as required
Participate heavily in preparation of the more complex and significant proposals
Provide technical expertise and assistance to other engineers and support personnel
Interact with technical management, other professionals, technicians and support personnel to coordinate, recommend and confer regarding technical activities and progress
May mentor and coach the work of others as assigned
Support, communicate, reinforce and defend the mission, values and culture of the organization

Mentor and coach less-experienced engineers

Job Responsibilities Part II

Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree in engineering or related technical field with a minimum of 10 years of experience
Mastery of technologies and domain knowledge
Expected to have knowledge and significant experience in multiple engineering disciplines

We are proud to offer competitive salaries and comprehensive benefits, including medical, dental, and vision coverage, a company contribution to a health savings account, telemedicine, life and disability insurance, legal insurance, and a 401(k) savings plan.
