Position Role Type:

Remote

U.S. Citizen, U.S. Person, or Immigration Status Requirements: Active and transferable U.S. government issued security clearance is required prior to start date. U.S. citizenship is required, as only U.S. citizens are eligible for a security clearance

Security Clearance Type:

At Raytheon, the foundation of everything we do is rooted in our values and a higher calling – to help our nation and allies defend freedoms and deter aggression. We bring the strength of more than 100 years of experience and renowned engineering expertise to meet the needs of today’s mission and stay ahead of tomorrow’s threat. Our team solves tough, meaningful problems that create a safer, more secure world.

The Effector RF Design (ERFD) Department is the engineering organization responsible for the design and technical leadership of advanced RF hardware supporting tactical missile systems. Our engineers develop RF solutions spanning the full development lifecycle - from concept development and architecture through detailed design, integration, qualification, and transition to production. We specialize in RF circuit card assemblies, transmitters, receivers, exciters, sensors, antennas, and other RF subsystems that enable critical defense capabilities.

While hardware design is a core capability, our responsibilities extend well beyond design. ERFD engineers provide technical leadership throughout product development, including architecture development, supplier technical oversight, technical management of multidisciplinary engineering teams, hardware integration, and qualification testing. We also support fielded products by developing capability enhancements, implementing redesigns driven by component obsolescence, and providing subject matter expertise for the most challenging RF issues encountered during production and sustainment.

We're looking for a technical leader who is passionate about engineering excellence, developing people, and helping teams solve challenging RF engineering problems.

The Effector RF Design Department is seeking an experienced Senior Principal RF Mechanical Engineer to serve as a Section Lead of one of our RF Mechanical sections.

This position combines hands-on technical contributions with functional leadership. Approximately 85% of your time will be spent supporting engineering programs across the full development lifecycle of RF products. Depending on program needs, you may contribute through hardware design, technical leadership, supplier management, requirements development, architecture, integration and test, or by leading multidisciplinary engineering teams responsible for delivering complex RF products.

The remaining 15% of your time will focus on leading a section of RF engineers by providing coaching, mentoring, career development, staffing support, and fostering a culture of technical excellence, collaboration, and continuous improvement.

This position is ideal for an experienced engineer who enjoys developing people as much as solving technical challenges and wants to help build an exceptional engineering organization. The successful candidate will be recognized as a trusted technical leader who is equally passionate about advancing technology, developing engineers, and helping teams succeed.

This position is 100% onsite in Tucson, Arizona.

What You Will Do:

Functional Leadership

Lead, coach, and develop a section of 10-20 RF Electronics engineers.
Conduct performance management, career development discussions, and regular one-on-one meetings.
Mentor engineers and foster technical growth across the organization.
Support recruiting, hiring, onboarding, and workforce planning.
Partner with department leadership on strategic initiatives and organizational priorities.
Foster a collaborative and engaging work environment.
Support employee recognition, engagement, and retention initiatives.
Ensure compliance with company policies, engineering processes, and RTX values.

Technical Leadership

Serve as a technical contributor, technical lead, or engineering manager on RF hardware development efforts.
Lead or support the design, development, integration, and qualification of RF hardware.
Develop mechanical RF and microwave hardware and/or packaging including antennas, radomes, circuit card assembly housings, printed circuit boards, RF hoods, and/or RF test fixtures.
Provide technical oversight of suppliers developing RF hardware and ensure products meet program technical, cost, and schedule objectives.
Lead multidisciplinary engineering teams responsible for the successful execution of RF products.
Perform or oversee RF mechanical analysis, simulation, integration, verification, troubleshooting, and qualification testing.
Support design reviews, technical risk management, and root cause investigations.
Develop technical solutions for complex RF issues affecting fielded products, including capability enhancements, redesigns driven by obsolescence, and other engineering changes requiring advanced RF expertise.
Collaborate closely with Systems Engineering, Structural and Thermal Analysts, Airframe Engineering, Manufacturing, Test, Quality, and Supply Chain organizations.

Qualifications You Must Have:

Typically requires a degree in Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics (STEM) and a minimum of 10 years of prior relevant experience.
Experience in at least two of the following areas:
Experience performing design and analysis for the packaging of RF products (e.g. Circuit Card Assemblies, antennas, radomes, RF test equipment, harnesses and interconnects) throughout the product life cycle to include three-dimensional (3D) Computer Aided Design (CAD) software.
Creation of Technical Data Packages (TDPs) using Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) for RF products.
Current or previous professional experience in leading a team.
Active and transferable U.S. government issued Secret security clearance is required prior to start date. U.S. citizenship is required, as only U.S. citizens are eligible for a security clearance.

Qualifications We Prefer:

An advanced degree such as a Master of Science (MS) in Mechanical Engineering, or related field
Experience serving as a Responsible Engineering Authority (REA), Control Account Manager (CAM), and/or Integrated Product Team Lead (IPTL)
Experience with performance management, coaching, or career development.
Demonstrated technical leadership on complex RF or Mechanical development programs.
Experience leading cross-functional engineering teams.
Experience with supplier technical oversight and management
Experience architecting RF systems and defining hardware requirements.
Experience with Creo Simulate or ANSYS Workbench for preliminary structural and thermal analysis of design concepts
Familiarity with failure investigation, root cause identification, and corrective action implementation
Familiarity or direct experience with RF Printed Circuit Board (PCB) material stack ups and Circuit Card Assembly (CCA) layout
Experience with one-dimensional tolerance analysis for complex mechanical assemblies
Experience with development of technical proposals, engineering project estimates, and/or white papers
Experience with requirements verification test planning and execution
Experience with creating and presenting professional level design documentation to company leadership and program customers
Strong collaboration, communication, and organizational skills.
A passion for developing engineers and building high-performing teams.
