Job description

Description
Are you interested in applied R&D?
Do you enjoy working in a creative environment, as part of a varied team of engineers, physicists, and computer scientists?
Do you want to play a critical role in the defense of our country - at sea and at home - from advanced missile threats?
We are seeking highly motivated PhD graduates in Electrical Engineering (EE), Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE), Computer Science (CS), Physics, or a similar technical degree. We are particularly interested in self-guided, creative problem-solvers who can develop into future technical leaders for our research performed for the US Navy and other DoD sponsors.
As a member of our team, you will...
  • Participate in live radar testing and analyze recorded data to gain insights into system performance, particularly with regard to environmental effects/physics.
  • Develop and apply detailed, physics-based simulations written in Java, C/C++, Matlab, and Python.
  • Learn and creatively apply machine learning, signal processing, and data science to real-world problems that no one else has previously solved.
  • Develop novel instrumentation and algorithms for understanding RF propagation effects by directly measuring, recording, and analyzing RF signal measurements.
  • Learn, apply skills, and advance the state of the art in our core technology areas of: signal processing, electromagnetics, software development, and boundary-layer meteorology.
  • Develop skills to lead technical teams toward common goals.
  • Directly communicate your results to sponsors and contractors to guide the directions of DoD programs toward technical success.

Qualifications
You meet our minimum qualifications for the job if you...
  • Have a PhD degree in EE, ECE, CS, Physics, or a similar technical field, with an GPA above 3.5.
  • Are familiar with Python, Matlab, or equivalent, or have had some exposure to modern development process (git, GitLab, Jira, or equivalent).
  • Have a strong understanding of, and interest in, machine learning, data science, signal processing, and/or electromagnetic theory.
  • Are able to obtain an Interim Secret level security clearance by your start date and can ultimately obtain a Secret level 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.

You'll go above and beyond our minimum requirements if you...
  • Also have cross-discipline technical degrees, including minors, in EE, ECE, CS, Physics in addition to a PhD.
  • Have radar or RF research experience (hardware, antennas, remote sensing, tracking, etc.)
  • Have internship experience related to DoD research, DoD contractors, or the advanced-technology industry.
