Sometimes a customer describes a challenge, and the complete solution forms in your mind so clearly that you catch yourself thinking, if only I could build this right now. When you have designed, integrated, and fielded a wide range of radio‑frequency and Electromagnetic Warfare systems, you reach a level where you can create effective solutions for any spectrum‑related challenge while also anticipating and countering emerging threats before they appear. You become the systems engineer trusted to secure tactical and operational advantage in the spectrum. You build this capability through years of hands‑on development guiding software efforts, leveraging commercial off‑the‑shelf hardware, and deep understanding of how sensing, effects, analytics, and mission applications combine to enable Electromagnetic Spectrum Operations for tactical and operational customers.
Are you ready to apply your knowledge, skill, and experience to some of the toughest challenges in defense across the electromagnetic spectrum? As a systems engineer on a mixed discipline team, you will translate complex radio‑frequency, Electromagnetic Warfare, and Electromagnetic Spectrum Operations mission needs into actionable system concepts and designs. You will guide the application and advancements of a reliable, proven software architecture and modular hardware approach to produce scalable signal‑processing solutions and rapidly fieldable prototypes. You will guide systems requirements development, hardware trade analysis, integration, and test following a systems development methodology. Your work will shape how the Department of War adopts and evolves spectrum‑driven technologies, from early‑stage concepts and demonstrations to full integration into operational systems. You will adjust capability roadmaps as threats evolve, develop, and deliver solution briefs, engage with stakeholders, and highlight advancements at conferences and trade shows.
Once you have mastered these responsibilities, the next step is to mentor the engineers who will define the future battlespace and drive the next generation of RF, Electromagnetic Warfare, and Electromagnetic Spectrum Operations innovation.
Work with us and help build the future of spectrum‑dominant technology in defense for the better.
Join us. The world can't wait.
