1209 - RF Engineer
Job Description
Work with our senior engineering team to design, build, and maintain real-time, closed-loop HWIL simulation capabilities, including radar scene generation, signal injection, and data acquisition systems.
Perform hands-on testing of RF seekers, transmitters, receivers, and antennas within compact ranges and HWIL labs.
Analyze complex RF systems, pre-test predictions, and post-test data to identify performance anomalies and root causes of failures.
Develop and document test plans, procedures, and reports for acceptance testing of missile hardware.
Collaborate with guidance, navigation, and control (GNC) engineers, algorithm developers, and software teams to integrate hardware and software components.
Support HWIL missile guidance tests for various Army weapon systems.
Education
