This role supports development from concept through integration and delivery requiring strong analytical skills technical leadership and cross-functional coordination. The candidate will set the highest ethical standards for self and others and perform other duties as assigned.

Essential Functions:

• Lead FPGA/GPU architectural design HDL coding test bench creation simulation and analysis for highperformance DSP and signal processing applications.
• Perform RF microwave and radarrelated analysis including spectrum behavior propagation effects receiver/frontend characteristics pulse parameters PRI/PW/RF measurement modulation recognition and emitter characterization.
• Apply DSP techniques including FFTs filtering detection estimation and timefrequency analysis to support system design and verification.
• Execute systems engineering tasks including requirements development (JIRA/DOORS) CONOPS definition integration planning test procedures and performance analysis.
• Work closely with cross-functional engineering teams to plan and conduct system integration testing in laboratory and platform environments.
• Document system behavior anomalies and integration results following established engineering standards; verify and validate system functionality across new and legacy baselines.
• Support troubleshooting of RF chains timing/synchronization issues calibration and hardware/software interaction during system integration.
• Collaborate with customers to ensure satisfaction with system performance and to clarify operational requirements.
• Provide technical updates to management and customers contributing to schedule risk and resource planning.
• Produce end-user documentation integration reports and technical analysis packages as required.
• Work effectively in a fast-paced environment with timecritical program milestones and evolving technical objectives.
• Active Secret or recently held Top Secret/SCI security clearance with the ability to maintain.
• Ability to work occasional overtime or weekend hours if required.

Qualifications:

• Bachelors Degree and minimum 6 years of prior relevant engineering experience.
• Graduate Degree and a minimum of 4 years of prior related engineering experience.
• In lieu of a degree a minimum of 10 years of prior related engineering experience.
• Demonstrated experience with FPGA or GPUbased design including VHDL/Verilog/CUDA test benches and simulation tools.
• Demonstrated understanding of RF and microwave fundamentals including antennas receivers spectral behavior and front-end design.
• Demonstrated experience with signals analysis techniques and tools including pulse analysis modulation assessment and emitter characterization.
• Demonstrated knowledge of radar fundamentals such as pulse radar CW/FMCW LPI principles scan patterns and threat system behavior.
• Demonstrated experience in MATLAB and Python for algorithm development modeling automation data analysis and visualization.
• Demonstrated experience working with large IQ/sample data sets and developing automated processing workflows.
• Demonstrated familiarity with test equipment including spectrum analyzers signal generators oscilloscopes vector signal analyzers and AWGs.
• Demonstrated experience with SDR platforms digitizers and receiver systems.

Preferred Additional Skills:

• Active TS/SCI.
• Experience with integration and troubleshooting of complex RF or electronic warfare receiver systems.
• Experience with JIRA Confluence and DOORS for requirements and workflow management.
• Experience with advanced DSP algorithm development and implementation.
• Familiarity with systemlevel SEI LPI/LPE techniques or advanced emitter analysis methodologies.
• Experience in software integration and system-level test.
• Proficiency with standard office and documentation tools.
