  • Providing support (primarily technical writing at this point) to the USAF Strategic Development Planning and Experimentation (SDPE) Experiment 1 (counter UAS) effort. Includes possible extension OCONUS deployment for USAF MAJCOM support.
  • Technical and test lead for the Directed Energy portion of SDPE Experiment 2 (counter cruise missile) (potential Q4FY22 start).
  • Serve as training and transition mentor to new hire personnel (particularly NH03 test Engineer and NH04 Director).

Requirements:

  • A Master's Degree in a relevant engineering field. Experience for education may be substituted with customer approval.
  • A working knowledge of Direct Energy systems.
  • Familiarity with HPL and HPM technology.
  • Must have ability to work within specific procedures and processes of the Air Force Test Center and DoD regulations and guidelines.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills along with customer interaction and presentation capabilities required.
  • Exemplify a dedication to achieving the mission of the DE CTF as well as high standards of quality and excellence in performing duties.
  • Must be able to work in a fast-paced environment while being able to prioritize work to balance multiple projects and deadlines.

Security Clearance: Must be able to obtain and maintain a Secret security clearance.

Other Essential Job Functions: Must be willing to travel up to 10% with possible overseas travel.
