You will serve as a key technical contributor on our integrated product team in the Precision Guidance and Sensing Solutions (PGSS) product line. You will be responsible for deeply impactful contributions to next generation military autonomy. Members on this development team drive collaborative value creation that is greater than the sum of their individual contributions. You will participate in efforts across the full-spectrum of technology maturation ranging from Strategic Initiatives, IRAD/CRAD R&D prototypes, EMD units, LRIP units to full rate production systems. As a senior-principal level contributor, you will work with other engineering staff & team leaders to grow and capture our knowledge through engineering changes, lessons learned, insights, Agile retrospectives and product/process improvements in your area(s) of expertise. Finally, since cultural and behavioral principles are a special part of our SE (Systems Engineering) organization, we are also looking for team players who will support our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion.

The successful candidate will have direct experience developing RADAR/ RF seekers for missile/munition applications, be comfortable architecting subsystem solutions that include a combination of COTS and Internally developed components, has strong background in radar, phased array, beam control, signal processing and seeker subsystem design. This position is for a Subject Matter Expert in RADAR/ RF that will work a Quick React Program that is supporting an Urgent Material Request. The ideal candidate is comfortable working on high performance teams supporting programs of national significance.

Because this role involves a combination of collaborative/in-person and independent work, it will take the form of a hybrid work format, with time split between working onsite and remotely.
