Role and Responsibilities include:

  • Serve as a trusted, independent advisor to the Government on all aspects of space-based radar payload performance and processing.
  • Provide objective assessments of contractor designs, algorithm implementations, and system performance.
  • Assess risks, technical maturity, and performance margins across development and operational systems.
  • Assess collection modes, tasking strategies, and geometry impacts on product performance.
  • Provide actionable recommendations to improve product quality and operational effectiveness.
  • Work closely with operators, system engineers, and contractors to diagnose and resolve operational issues.
  • Evaluate end-to-end radar signal processing chains, including calibration, image formation, detection, and tracking.
  • Analyze interactions between space segment, ground processing, communications, and tasking systems.
  • Support development and refinement of radar mission requirements and performance metrics.
  • Ensure lessons learned from operations are fed back into system improvements.
  • Advise on future enhancements to payload capability, processing algorithms, and product generation.
  • Assist in developing Customer positions, technical assessments, and decision briefings for leadership.
Required Qualifications:
  • Must possess an active Top Secret/SCI clearance and CI polygraph (polygraph within the last ten (10) years).
  • Master's degree in engineering and ten (10) or more years of experience.
  • Experience with all phases of the satellite mission lifecycle, from concept development and design through integration, testing, and post-launch operations.
  • Direct experience with space-based radar systems or closely related ISR platforms.
  • Excellent interpersonal, leadership, team building, and problem-solving skills with a demonstrated ability to be effective in a Government/Contractor team environment.
  • Ability to communicate complex technical topics to Senior decision-makers with varying technical backgrounds through clear briefings and written reports.
  • Willingness to travel up to 10%.
$180,000 - $240,000 a year
