The candidate will set the highest ethical standards for self and others and perform other duties as assigned. Essential Functions: Lead FPGA/GPU architectural design, HDL coding, test bench creation, simulation, and analysis for high‑performance DSP and signal processing applications. Perform RF, microwave, and radar‑related analysis including spectrum behavior, propagation effects, receiver/front‑end characteristics, pulse parameters, PRI/PW/RF measurement, modulation recognition, and emitter characterization. Apply DSP techniques including FFTs, filtering, detection, estimation, and time‑frequency analysis to support system design and verification. Execute systems engineering tasks including requirements development (JIRA/DOORS), CONOPS definition, integration planning, test procedures, and performance analysis. Work closely with cross-functional engineering teams to plan and conduct system integration testing in laboratory and platform environments. Document system behavior, anomalies, and integration results following established engineering standards; verify and validate system functionality across new and legacy baselines. Support troubleshooting of RF chains, timing/synchronization issues, calibration, and hardware/software interaction during system integration. Collaborate with customers to ensure satisfaction with system performance and to clarify operational requirements. Provide technical updates to management and customers, contributing to schedule, risk, and resource planning. Produce end-user documentation, integration reports, and technical analysis packages as required. Work effectively in a fast-paced environment with time‑critical program milestones and evolving technical objectives. Active Secret or recently held Top Secret/SCI security clearance with the ability to maintain. Ability to work occasional overtime or weekend hours if required.
