Woburn, Massachusetts, United States STR Full time

The Systems Development Division (SDD) delivers technology advantage into users' hands, from space to sub-surface. Our programs deliver sustainable, reliable, and cost-efficient capabilities focused on end-customer needs that function in operationally relevant environments and timeframes. SDD considers the entire lifecycle of the solution, from conceptualization and architecting, through development, to deployment, while leveraging novel technologies to deliver first-of-a-kind systems. Current efforts include programs for airborne and space RF as well as advanced testing enabled by multi-function, multi-modal capabilities.

SDD is seeking a Principal Radar Mode Architect to support the architecting, design, development, and implementation of modes for advanced multi-function Radar systems. You will collaborate with fellow researchers and engineers on multi-disciplinary teams spread across multiple STR campuses, groups, divisions, and with industry partners to interpret and understand customer objectives and develop innovative solutions to complex and challenging national security problems. You may direct and/or lead development efforts and junior engineers, as needed, in areas of focus including exploration and demonstration of Radar and EW/RF convergence.

You will leverage your extensive and deep skill and experience in radar mode architecting for applications primarily related to Air-to-Air applications (Air-to-Air expertise required). In this role, you will design and implement signal processing algorithms for Air-to-Air radar modes, ensuring optimal performance in various operational environments over the complete signal processing chain. This will be supported by your analysis, implementation, and optimization of motion compensation and navigation design implementation, waveform design, pulse compression, and application of target detection and engagement techniques. Your work will lead to the development of robust target tracking algorithms and incorporation with advanced techniques for target identification and discrimination for airborne targets, including maneuvering and evasive targets. Additionally, you will integrate electronic warfare capabilities into Air-to-Air radar modes for enhanced situational awareness and threat assessment.

You will conduct performance analysis through simulations and real-world testing to validate and optimize radar modes. Additionally, you will support the effort to evaluate current and future system capabilities, identify improved applications and techniques, and ultimately recommend solutions. Since the systems SDD develops are deployed in operationally relevant environments, the products you develop needs to meet standards of quality, maintainability, and reuse.
