• Leading end-to-end development of Ka-band AESA / phased array systems
• Technical ownership across architecture, design, prototyping, integration and test
• Coordinating multidisciplinary teams across RF, digital, power, mechanical, thermal, software and systems engineering
• Antenna and board-level RF electronics development
• Array control, power conversion and supporting digital electronics
• Active antenna testing, including EIRP and G/T measurements
• Leading environmental qualification including TVAC, vibration, shock and EMC
• Requirements, ICDs, verification plans, risk management and design reviews
• Root cause analysis, anomaly resolution and technical risk mitigation
• Transitioning flight hardware into scalable production
• Communicating technical decisions, risks and progress to customers and leadership
What we're looking for:
8+ years of electronics hardware engineering experience
• BS or higher in Electrical Engineering or a related discipline
• Hands-on experience with active phased array antennas
• Strong expertise in antennas and board-level RF electronics
• Experience testing active antennas and measuring EIRP / G/T
• Understanding of digital/power support circuitry and DFM
• Experience leading or mentoring multidisciplinary engineering teams
