Lead Systems Engineer - Passive RF Sensing

„Direct the integration and performance of passive RF sensors from initial requirements through to flight test to ensure operational readiness“

„Translate mission threat scenarios into measurable sensor requirements and define antenna architectures for optimal direction-finding“

„Oversee library and classification support, managing emitter parameter sets, frequency agility handling, and confidence metrics“

„Guide co-site and electromagnetic compatibility coordination with onboard transmitters to implement desense protection, blanking, and filtering“

„Execute verification and test campaigns with a focus on installed sensor performance, coordinating data interfaces with software and avionics teams“

„Manage technical supplier relationships, reviewing specifications, acceptance tests, and change requests to track issues to objective closure“

„Have delivered passive RF sensors for airborne or complex platforms from concept to integration“

„Possess practical expertise with direction-finding architectures, error budgeting, and calibration“

„Hold a degree in Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Systems Engineering, or a related discipline“

„Have implemented electromagnetic compatibility mitigation on platforms with strong transmitters“

„Understand threat radar phenomenology and can convert scenarios into measurable sensor requirements“

„Can specify and validate receiver performance, interpreting laboratory and flight data accurately“

„You will guide co-site coordination to protect sensitive receivers from onboard transmitters and direct the verification campaign to deliver a fully qualified sensor system“
