Description

SAIC is seeking a talented and motivated Electrical Engineer with experience in radio frequency (RF), digital signal processing (DSP), and system testing to join our cutting-edge engineering team. The ideal candidate will contribute to the design, development, and testing of advanced systems, including maritime off-board countermeasures and other sophisticated electronic warfare solutions.

This role offers the opportunity to work at the forefront of technology, delivering mission-critical innovation for military and defense applications. The selected candidate will engage in activities across the product lifecycle, from initial system and component design to prototyping, testing, and deployment.

Key Responsibilities:

1. Develop and characterize RF system designs, waveforms, and architectures for use in maritime electronic warfare and off-board countermeasure systems.

2. Design and implement digital signal processing algorithms to detect, process, and mitigate advanced threats in challenging operational environments.

3. Support the integration and testing of RF, digital signal processing, and broader system components, ensuring alignment with customer requirements and performance objectives.

4. Conduct in-depth modeling, simulation, and analysis of RF and signal processing systems for performance and environmental robustness.

5. Utilize signal generators, spectrum analyzers, oscilloscopes, vector network analyzers, and other RF test equipment to evaluate system performance and troubleshoot functionality.

6. Collaborate across multi-disciplinary teams, including mechanical, software, and systems engineering professionals, to advance integrated designs and implementation.

7. Conduct system-level performance evaluations in laboratory, field, or system environments, with a focus on environmental and electromagnetic interference (EMI) requirements.

8. Create and deliver detailed technical documentation, including system descriptions, test plans, analysis reports, and results.

9. Stay up to date on advancements in RF and electronic warfare technologies, proposing innovative solutions to meet emerging threats.

Qualifications

Basic Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a closely related discipline.

• 3–5 years of experience in radio frequency (RF) circuit design, digital signal processing, or radar/signal processing systems.

• Fundamental understanding of digital and analog circuit design, including schematics, simulations, and PCB design.

• Proficiency with RF simulation and circuit design tools (such as HFSS, ADS, AWR Microwave Office, or CST).

• Experience with MATLAB, Python, or similar tools for algorithm development and data analysis.

• Strong hands-on experience with RF test equipment (e.g., network analyzers, spectrum analyzers, signal generators, oscilloscopes).

• Knowledge of signal protocols, modulation techniques, and signal chain analysis.

• Effective verbal and written communication skills, with demonstrated experience in technical documentation and interfacing with diverse teams.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Master’s Degree in Electrical Engineering or closely related field.

• Familiarity or experience with maritime off-board countermeasures systems or electronic warfare systems.

• Hands-on experience with embedded systems interfacing, FPGA/DSP programming, or hardware-software integration (e.g., VHDL, Verilog, microcontroller programming).

• Exposure to MIL-STD or DoD system requirements, especially those related to RF and electromagnetic compatibility (MIL-STD-461).

• Experience designing and testing systems in harsh environments, including maritime or underwater environments.

• Understanding of acoustic signal processing, radar technologies, or RF emitter systems.

• Active or ability to obtain/maintain a security clearance.
