This position is currently contingent on program award and associated program award funding. Start dates are determined after funding confirmation.
At Northrop Grumman, we Define Possible. We are a passionate community of engineers and leaders, a creative community of scientists and researchers, a diverse community of human beings, all driven to pioneer the future. And in Survivability, that future is bright... Or, from the enemy's perspective, it is as dark as the cover of a moonless night.
Imagine sitting in a stadium, or outside at a parade, and the next generation of Stealth Technology flies overhead, drawing a roar of admiration from the crowd. Imagine being able to turn to the person next to you and saying "I had a hand in that." At Northrop Grumman Aeronautics Systems and in Survivability Engineering, that could be Your Possible.
We are tasked with developing, testing, and implementing new materials, technologies, and concepts, that enable the most lethal, intelligent, and collaborative systems to penetrate and operate in enemy airspace with impunity. We work hand in hand with a broad swath of other engineering disciplines to design, develop, manufacture, and sustain these systems.
Our responsibilities span the full Systems Engineering lifecycle—from research and development to modeling and analysis, from static / component test to dynamic flight test, from manufacturing floor support to field repairs and maintenance, and more. We work across multiple spectrums—from RF (Radio Frequency), to IR (Infrared) and Visual, to Acoustic.
Our engineers have the opportunity to work in various environments—behind desks, in highly specialized labs, at indoor and outdoor test and measurement ranges, and at overseas operational locations. Our team is absolutely critical to the cradle-to-grave success of our cornerstone programs and the programs of the future, and your role on our team would be equally critical to our success as an organization.
Without Survivability Engineers, there is no Low in Low Observable. Without us, there is no Stealth in Stealth Bomber. We need your help to engineer at the edge of the impossible.
Core competencies:
- Use the latest classified cutting-edge technology to reduce the detectability of aircraft in the electromagnetic, infrared, visual and acoustic spectrums.
- Predict the performance of your design using proprietary analysis codes.
- Get your hand dirty and verify your prediction and the design by building and test physical models.
- Optimize the design for Stealth while meeting the requirement of all other engineering disciplines.
- Take Responsibility for achieving customer goal and balancing the design in an Integrated Product Team (IPT) environment.
- Thrive in a fast-paced work environment with high expectations, significantly diverse assignments, and extensive collaboration.
Basic Qualifications:
- Demonstrated skills and knowledge in Stealth (design integration, product support or antenna integration).
- Must have an active DoD Secret (or higher) clearance.
- A Special Access Program (SAP)/Program Access Request (PAR) will be initiated on the selected candidate and must be active before a start date can be established.
Educational/ Experience Requirements:
- Senior Principal Survivability Engineer:
- Bachelor's degree in a STEM discipline AND 9 years of related professional/military engineering experience, OR a Master's degree AND 7 years of related professional/military engineering experience, OR a Ph.D. AND 0 years of related professional/military engineering experience.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Demonstrated Knowledge and Experience using the latest classified cutting-edge technology to reduce the detectability of aircraft in the electromagnetic, infrared, visual and acoustic spectrums.
- Experience with Northrop Grumman proprietary computational electromagnetic analysis codes or similar computational electromagnetic analysis codes used by our competitors or customers.
- Complete understanding and capability to plan and implement Radio Frequency (RF) modeling and testing of complex classified targets at nations premier indoor/outdoor RCS/RF test facility.
- Working knowledge of the requirements of other supporting engineering disciplines to help in achieving optimization of Stealth goals and a balanced design.
- Strong interpersonal communication and technical writing skills to enable effective personal interaction and collaboration with a multi-disciplined team and customers.
- Knowledge of Applied Electromagnetics / Aircraft Survivability, and a Comprehensive understanding of Electromagnetic Energy transmission though space and within materials.
- The ability to post process complex electromagnetic data to identify and exploit trends to help our aircraft vanish from the RADAR screen.
Salary Range:
$114,900 - $172,300
The above salary range represents a general guideline; however, Northrop Grumman considers a number of factors when determining base salary offers such as the scope and responsibilities of the position and the candidate's experience, education, skills and current market conditions.
