We are seeking a highly skilled RF Systems Engineer to join our team at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory (APL). As an RF Systems Engineer, you will play a critical role in the development of innovative algorithms for surface radar and electronic warfare (EW) maritime electromagnetic systems.
Key Responsibilities- Collaborate with a multidisciplinary team of electrical engineers, computational scientists, software engineers, and domain experts to analyze, model, simulate, and develop creative solutions for complex surface maritime radar and EW problems.
- Analyze current and future RF systems to understand limitations, document findings, and provide reports and recommendations on new concepts and future capabilities.
- Share analysis products and new ideas with project sponsors, and formally present results at technical exchange and working group meetings.
- Develop formal proposals for new ideas, and submit formal bids for APL Internal Research and Development funding or other organizational grants.
- Participate in internal and external test and evaluation and data collection events.
- Possess a Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering, mathematics, physics, computer science, or another related discipline.
- Have professional experience in advanced signal processing, or communications engineering, and radar/EW engineering/analysis.
- Have a working knowledge of RF propagation, RF signal processing, radar cross section (RCS), RF filtering, transmitter and receiver fundamentals, and antennas.
- Have Matlab experience in modeling, data analysis, and development of algorithms for complex systems.
- Have programming experience in Python, C++, or Java.
- Demonstrate strong interpersonal and communication skills. Are comfortable writing and presenting about technical topics to peers, managers, and external customers.
- Are able to obtain an Interim Top Secret level security clearance by your start date and can ultimately obtain a TS/SCI clearance. If selected, you will be subject to a government security clearance investigation and must meet the requirements for access to classified information. Eligibility requirements include U.S. citizenship.
- Possess a Master's degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering, mathematics, physics, computer science, or another related discipline.
- Have a working knowledge of national intelligence databases.
- Have demonstrated experience in radar waveform design, target detection, and tracking.
- Have experience leading and performing technical studies and analyses, modeling and simulation of advanced RF, communications, or signal processing applications.
- Have experience working with electronic warfare (EW), intelligence sensors, surveillance radars, over-the-horizon radar, or other electromagnetic system.
- Have experience using RF test and measurement equipment and familiarity with GNU Radio and/or VHDL/Verliog.
- Hold an active DoD Secret or higher clearance.
