Senior Spectrum Engineer

About the role

eSimplicity is a modern digital services company that partners with government agencies to improve the lives and protect the well-being of all Americans, from veterans and service members to children, families, and seniors. Our engineers, designers, and strategists cut through complexity to create intuitive products and services that equip federal agencies with solutions to courageously transform today for a better tomorrow. We are seeking a Senior Spectrum Engineer to provide advanced spectrum engineering and Electromagnetic Environmental Effects (E3) support for complex Department of Defense (DoD) systems and operations. The Senior Spectrum Engineer will perform technical analyses, assessments, measurements, and coordination activities supporting electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), electromagnetic interference (EMI), radiation hazards (RADHAZ), RF propagation, spectrum certification, and frequency management. This position will work closely with spectrum management organizations, acquisition and engineering teams, operational organizations, and military, federal, local, and host-nation authorities to ensure systems can operate effectively and compatibly within their intended electromagnetic environments.
