Engineer/Principal Engineer RF Microwave Design

We need to produce HTML fragment with sections: headings using

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We need to parse the job posting. First, remove boilerplate: relocation assistance, clearance required, travel etc? Those are metadata; we can fold minor metadata into short

or drop. The instruction: "Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it." So we can include a short paragraph for relocation assistance, clearance, travel maybe. But we need to preserve all substantive information. Let's extract sections: - About the role: description paragraph about Northrop Grumman, mission, culture, seeking RF engineers, areas, etc. - Responsibilities: bullet list of duties: testing and troubleshooting LRM and CCA, recommend data driven requirements threshold adjustments, perform subsystem analysis including hardware from RF to digits, support for performance testing, requirements verification, and more. - Requirements / Qualifications: there are Basic Qualification for Engineer and Principal Engineer, plus Preferred Qualifications. Also U.S. Citizenship required, active Secret clearance, etc. - Skills: maybe list of specific skills: troubleshooting RF hardware/subsystems, using MATLAB/python, Atlassian Tool Suite, Git, RF lab test equipment, etc. - Pay: salary ranges given: Primary Level Salary Range: $87,600 - $131,400; Secondary Level Salary Range: $108,800 - $163,200. Also mention 15% pay differential for 3rd shift, overtime, shift differential, discretionary bonus, annual bonuses, long term incentives for VP/Director. - Benefits: health insurance, life and disability insurance, savings plan, company paid holidays, paid time off (PTO). Also maybe mention relocation assistance may be available. - Schedule: 3rd shift schedule: 9PM to 5AM Monday through Friday. We also have clearance info: Active Interim Secret or higher clearance required; U.S. Citizenship required; this role contingent upon candidates having a current, active Government Secret Clearance. We need to avoid boilerplate like EEO, equal opportunity, scam-warning, legal, navigation, cookie. Remove those. We also need to not repeat job title as heading. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. We need to use

for section headings. Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

  for prose. We need to decide which sections to include. We have content for About the role (description). Responsibilities (list). Requirements/Qualifications (maybe combine as Requirements). Skills (list). Pay (specific numbers). Benefits (list). Schedule (specific). Also maybe a short paragraph for metadata like relocation assistance, clearance, travel, U.S. Citizenship. But we must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual content. Let's craft:

  About the role

  At Northrop Grumman, our employees have incredible opportunities to work on revolutionary systems that impact people's lives around the world today, and for generations to come. Our pioneering and inventive spirit has enabled us to be at the forefront of many technological advancements in our nation's history - from the first flight across the Atlantic Ocean, to stealth bombers, to landing on the moon. We look for people who have bold new ideas, courage and a pioneering spirit to join forces to invent the future, and have fun along the way. Our culture thrives on intellectual curiosity, cognitive diversity and bringing your whole self to work — and we have an insatiable drive to do what others think is impossible. Our employees are not only part of history, they're making history. Northrop Grumman Missions Systems is seeking experienced RF engineers in the following areas: Antennas, Electromagnetics, Computational Electromagnetics, RF/Microwave design, Digital beamforming, Hardware/Subsystem Integration and Test, and Antenna Control Design. The qualified candidate will work with a diverse and talented team of engineers developing innovative and cost-effective systems that support a broad range of products and business areas across the lifecycle of a program. Applicants should possess the ability to communicate effectively and clearly present technical approaches and findings.

  Responsibilities

  • Testing and troubleshooting Line Replacement Modules (LRM) and Circuit Card Assemblies (CCA) of RF architecture
  • Recommending data‑driven requirements threshold adjustments
  • Performing subsystem analysis including hardware from RF to digits
  • Supporting performance testing and requirements verification
  • Other related duties as needed
  But we should not add "Other related duties as needed" if not in text. The posting says "and more." We could keep "and more" as a bullet? Might be considered filler. Better to keep exactly what is listed: testing and troubleshooting LRM and CCA, recommend data driven requirements threshold adjustments, perform subsystem analysis including hardware from RF to digits, support for performance testing, requirements verification. That's it. Thus bullet list with those four items.

  Requirements

  We have basic qualifications for Engineer and Principal Engineer, plus citizenship and clearance. Could combine. We could have a paragraph summarizing: U.S. Citizenship required; current, active Government Secret clearance required; Bachelor's degree in Engineering or related discipline with 2 years experience (Engineer) or 5 years (Principal Engineer); alternatives with Masters or experience in lieu of degree; problem solving skills; knowledge of electrical engineering, design software and equipment; expertise testing and troubleshooting in a manufacturing environment. But we need to use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we can list requirements as bullet points. Let's extract: - U.S. Citizenship required - Current, active Government Secret clearance required - Bachelor's degree in Engineering or related discipline with 2 years of experience in the areas described (Engineer) OR 0 years with a Master's degree OR additional 4 years experience in lieu of degree (Engineer) - For Principal Engineer: Bachelor's degree with 5 years experience OR 3 years with Master's OR additional 4 years experience in lieu of degree - Demonstrate problem solving skills to a variety of RF/Microwave design and test related problems of increasing scope and complexity - Proven knowledge of electrical engineering, design software and equipment - Expertise testing and troubleshooting in a manufacturing environment - Experience troubleshooting RF hardware/subsystems Also Preferred Qualifications (list). Could be under Skills or a separate Preferred Qualifications section. But we only have headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We could put Qualifications for basic and preferred, and Skills for technical skills. Let's decide:

    Qualifications

    • U.S. Citizenship required
    • Current, active Government Secret clearance required
    • Bachelor's degree in Engineering or related discipline with 2 years of experience in the areas described (Engineer) – 0 years with a Master's degree or an additional 4 years experience in lieu of a degree also acceptable
    • For Principal Engineer: Bachelor's degree with 5 years experience – 3 years with a Master's degree or an additional 4 years experience in lieu of a degree also acceptable
    • Demonstrate problem solving skills to a variety of RF/Microwave design and test related problems of increasing scope and complexity
    • Proven knowledge of electrical engineering, design software and equipment
    • Expertise testing and troubleshooting in a manufacturing environment
    • Experience troubleshooting RF hardware/subsystems
    Then

    Skills

    list: - Ability to communicate effectively and clearly present technical approaches and findings - Experience testing and troubleshooting Line Replacement Modules (LRM) and Circuit Card Assemblies (CCA) of RF architecture (maybe that's responsibility) - Experience with MATLAB, Python, etc. to create test support applications and tools - Experience with Atlassian Tool Suite, Git - Experience with RF lab test equipment: signal generator, oscilloscope, spectrum analyzer, etc. - Hands on experience with test sets: Common RF Test Set (CRFTS), LM-STAR, Hiller Test sets, Phase Noise Test sets and consoles - Experience troubleshooting and resolving HW/SW integration problems - Experience using or developing software to control hardware (such as MATE or AMAX) - Experience with test scripting, data analysis, and/or signal processing - Experience mentoring other design and/or RF test engineers (preferred) - Experience testing, troubleshooting or designing RF hardware/subsystems - Troubleshot electronic equipment to the component level - Integrated Receiver Exciter Assemblies (IREX) - Highly integrated subsystems including receiver exciter hardware - RF Performance Analysis - Computational Electromagnetics, Statistics - Subsystem Control Design - RF Measurements and Data Reduction - Integration and test of RF assemblies - Subsystem requirements (hardware and software) derivation, flow-down, and configuration That's a lot; but we need to preserve all substantive information. However, we should avoid making the list too long? The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." But we need to include all substantive info; we can combine many skills into a single
    list. We also have Pay and Benefits and Schedule. Pay: we have Primary Level Salary Range: $87,600 - $131,400; Secondary Level Salary Range: $108,800 - $163,200. Also mention 15% pay differential for 3rd shift, eligibility for overtime, shift differential, discretionary bonus, annual bonuses, long term incentives for VP/Director. We should include that as a

    maybe with bullet list? Since it's compensation details, could be a

    list. Benefits: health insurance coverage, life and disability insurance, savings plan, Company paid holidays and paid time off (PTO) for vacation and/or personal business. Also relocation assistance may be available (we could include in benefits or short paragraph). We'll include relocation assistance as part of benefits. Schedule: 3rd shift schedule: 9PM to 5AM Monday through Friday. Now we need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like EEO, legal, etc. Remove those. Now produce HTML. We need to ensure we don't have empty sections. Let's craft final HTML:
