E3 Partners Jobs (NOW HIRING)

About Us

eSimplicity is a modern digital services company that partners with government agencies to improve the lives and protect the well-being of all Americans, from veterans and service members to children, families, and seniors. Our engineers, designers, and strategists cut through complexity to create intuitive products and services that equip federal agencies with solutions to courageously transform today for a better tomorrow.

We are seeking a Senior Spectrum Engineer to provide advanced spectrum engineering and Electromagnetic Environmental Effects (E3) support for complex Department of Defense (DoD) systems and operations. The Senior Spectrum Engineer will perform technical analyses, assessments, measurements, and coordination activities supporting electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), electromagnetic interference (EMI), radiation hazards (RADHAZ), RF propagation, spectrum certification, and frequency management.

This position will work closely with spectrum management organizations, acquisition and engineering teams, operational organizations, and military, federal, local, and host-nation authorities to ensure systems can operate effectively and compatibly within their intended electromagnetic environments.

Responsibilities:

• Possesses and applies a comprehensive knowledge across key tasks and high impact assignments.
• Plans and leads major technology assignments.
• Evaluates performance results and recommends major changes affecting short-term project growth and success.
• Functions as a technical expert across multiple project assignments.
• Provide quick-reaction EMI, RADHAZ, RF propagation, spectrum compatibility, and E3 engineering analyses in response to operational, acquisition, test, and engineering requirements.
• Analyze equipment, platforms, and systems for potential Electromagnetic Environmental Effects (E3) issues and develop technically sound recommendations to prevent, mitigate, or resolve identified problems.
• Conduct electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and electromagnetic interference (EMI) analyses to evaluate compatibility between systems operating within complex electromagnetic environments.
• Coordinate, interpret, and apply applicable EMC/E3 standards, criteria, policies, and engineering requirements in support of system development, acquisition, testing, fielding, and operation.
• Perform and support radio frequency (RF) measurements, data collection, and technical assessments to characterize electromagnetic environments, investigate interference, and validate engineering analyses.
• Conduct RF propagation, coverage, link, and interference analyses using appropriate engineering models, tools, and measurement data.
• Evaluate system RF characteristics, including operating frequencies, bandwidths, emissions, transmitter power, receiver characteristics, antenna parameters, and deployment configurations.
• Assist the Frequency Operations Support Division (FOSD) with the preparation and technical review of DD Form 1494, Application for Equipment Frequency Allocation, and supporting documentation.
• Support spectrum certification and spectrum supportability activities throughout the acquisition lifecycle, including assessment of proposed systems for compliance with applicable spectrum and E3 requirements.
• Assist acquisition organizations and program offices by assessing E3 and spectrum-related technical risks, requirements, and constraints associated with system design, development, testing, procurement, and fielding.
• Determine appropriate operational frequency bands based on system requirements, spectrum availability, electromagnetic compatibility, regulatory constraints, and the intended operational environment.
• Prepare and coordinate frequency assignment requests with appropriate military, federal, installation, and local frequency-management authorities.
• Support international spectrum coordination and provide technical assistance in obtaining host-nation approval for equipment operation, including preparation and review of required technical characteristics and spectrum-support documentation.
• Evaluate potential frequency conflicts and recommend mitigation strategies such as frequency selection, filtering, antenna placement, geographic separation, power management, equipment modifications, or operational restrictions.
• Assess applicable RADHAZ considerations, including hazards of electromagnetic radiation to personnel, ordnance, and fuels, as required by supported systems and missions.
• Support interference investigations by identifying potential interference sources, conducting technical analyses and measurements, and recommending corrective actions.
• Develop and conduct E3, EMC, EMI, spectrum engineering, and frequency-management training for technical, acquisition, and operational personnel.
• Prepare technical reports, engineering assessments, briefings, spectrum-supportability documentation, and other technical products for government and program stakeholders.
• Coordinate with program offices, acquisition organizations, system engineers, spectrum managers, frequency managers, operational units, test organizations, and external authorities to resolve spectrum and E3 issues.
• Provide senior-level technical guidance and mentorship in spectrum engineering, E3, EMI/EMC, RADHAZ, RF measurements, propagation analysis, spectrum certification, and frequency-management processes.
• May supervise others.

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Telecommunications Engineering, RF Engineering, Physics, or a related technical discipline.
• 10+ years of relevant experience in spectrum engineering, E3, EMI/EMC, RF engineering, frequency management, or related DoD communications/electronics engineering.
• Demonstrated knowledge of Electromagnetic Environmental Effects (E3) principles and their application to military equipment and systems.
• Experience performing EMI/EMC, RADHAZ, RF propagation, interference, and/or spectrum compatibility analyses.
• Experience supporting spectrum certification, frequency allocation, and/or frequency assignment processes.
• Experience preparing, reviewing, or supporting DD Form 1494 frequency allocation applications.
• Working knowledge of DoD and federal spectrum-management processes, policies, and organizations.
• Experience interpreting and applying applicable E3/EMC standards, spectrum policies, frequency-allocation requirements, and technical criteria.
• Knowledge of RF system characteristics, including transmitters, receivers, antennas, emissions, bandwidth, modulation, propagation, and link performance.
• Ability to perform or support RF measurements and interpret measurement data in support of engineering assessments and interference investigations.
• Ability to analyze complex technical problems and develop practical engineering solutions and recommendations.
• Strong technical writing, briefing, and communication skills.
• Ability to work effectively with engineering, acquisition, operational, and spectrum-management stakeholders.
• Active secret clearance as required by the government contract
